I got my kit from http://www.ableideas.com/x0xb0x

They have a good supply of them and send them out really quick.

I have built one of them and ordered a second.

I’m glad I bought my xoxbox kit last year… Now I suppose I should put it together.

Hey people. I have been set the task of DIY building a simple analogue synthesizer (from instructions) in the time frame of a few weeks. I figure this post would be a good place to ask if anyone knows of any decent, straightforward kits that I can source and build relatively quickly?

I would call myself ‘beginner-to-intermediate’ level. I have a very good idea of how analogue synthesis works (including an understanding of a lot of the circuitry), as well as a relatively good grounding in electronics (I have designed and built a number of simple circuits on my own… thermostat-controlled fans and the like).
I have not done anything as complex as build a working synthesizer yet, but now is as good a time to start as any, surely?

So yeah – any recommendations for open-source synthesizer kits, that can be put together from scratch quickly and easily?

peter, the x0xb0x is not discontinued. the waiting list is long enough that i suggest ’self sourcing’. i am still making kits but it is slow going. please update the post so that people do not get confused and google doesnt get a chance to scrape this. thanks!
