Maddie Synths

Open-source DIY Eurorack modules I have built and sell.

These are my open-source Eurorack experiments — mostly small, cheap boards where the firmware defines the module. Each card below is a single firmware build / module. This is inspired by things like the WGD Modular melon.

The MOD1 and MOD2 hardware is an open designs by Hagiwo — see the original build guides for MOD1 and MOD2. All firmware lives in the maddie-synths repository.

A six-waveform oscillator with PolyBLEP anti-aliasing and negative-slope 1V/oct CV.

Blank Panels

Blanks in every width I actually needed, drawn to the same house style as the module faceplates — 128.5 mm tall, brand text at both ends so it reads upright either way up. Front and back carry different artwork, so one board is really two panels: mount whichever face you want showing. You can buy them from my Etsy shop.
