          <description xml:base="https://veradec.xyz/posts/drum-sequencer/">&lt;p&gt;I always looked at Teenage Engineering and thought it was pretty cool and given I have a sem break right now, I thought I can make one too. shouldn’t be hard right?&lt;br &#x2F;&gt;
and after i started composing music, Techno was a genre I always wanted to try but i couldn’t, and then an idea popped up, maybe I can create a suite of instruments&lt;&#x2F;p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;a Synth&lt;&#x2F;p&gt;
&lt;&#x2F;blockquote&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;a Drum Sequencer&lt;&#x2F;p&gt;
&lt;&#x2F;blockquote&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;a Vocoder&lt;&#x2F;p&gt;
&lt;&#x2F;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;and start making techno on them? Sounds nice innit?&lt;br &#x2F;&gt;
&lt;br&gt;&lt;&#x2F;p&gt;
&lt;h1 id=&quot;the-design&quot;&gt;The Design&lt;&#x2F;h1&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I wanted the design to look a little retro 80’s esque, and I wanted it to be little simpler (because I will have suite of appliances to generate different sounds, so would rather have one that is simple and does it job well)
and I drew a few sketches and ended with something that looks very nice&lt;&#x2F;p&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;display: flex; justify-content: center;&quot;&gt;
  &lt;img src=&quot;&#x2F;dq_sketch.png&quot; alt=&quot;Drum Sequencer Rough Sketch&quot; style=&quot;transform: rotate(-90deg); width: 50%;&quot; &#x2F;&gt;
&lt;&#x2F;div&gt;
&lt;h1 id=&quot;the-prototyping&quot;&gt;The Prototyping&lt;&#x2F;h1&gt;
&lt;p&gt;with the &lt;em&gt;beautifully&lt;&#x2F;em&gt; crafted picture in hand, now the plan is to prototype&lt;&#x2F;p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I needed around 16 Buttons – which I am going to pull of some keyboards i archived (They paid off innit?).&lt;&#x2F;p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I might need to get some more potentiometers and find a way to make a matrix the LEDs and Buttons, Once That is done, Getting the whole thing shouldn’t be that tough (atleast I hope it isn’t)&lt;&#x2F;p&gt;
&lt;!-- -- 28 May 02:00 AM   --&gt;
&lt;!-- I am about to order stuff from flyrobo and i found this website called [ifuturetech](https:&#x2F;&#x2F;ifuturetech.org) which i am really unsure is legitimate, but yes. I might order from it, the total cost excluding the MicroProcessor and the Speaker (which i might borrow from a friend for prototyping) come around to 616.   --&gt;
&lt;!-- Including the speaker and the MCU let&#x27;s call it a even 900? and then the chassis -- with a good cnc machine and alumium -- would roll everything up to a nice 1500 - 1700? That still is cheaper than Teenage Engineering or any SOTA, selling it for around 2400-2500 should make up some good profit. this is getting exciting.   --&gt;
&lt;!-- I look forward to any outliers that would increase the cost by 10x -- i don&#x27;t see a reason something like this would but yes. --&gt;
