Help with a DIY Synthesizer

[Moff Chumley]

I am not a technical guy. However, I am a synth player, so that is a major inconvenience. While searching for some way to duplicate some of Pink Floyd's more trippy stuff, I came across this (http://www.musicfromouterspace.com/analogsynth/YOUR_FIRST_SYNTH/YOUR_FIRST_SYNTH.html). Of course, it's all gibberish to me, so I asked my friend to give me a hand with it. Both of us being extremely strapped for cash, he was happy to say that the whole thing should be reasonably affordable. However, when he noticed that it required a Proto Board, he said it wasn't doable without the myriad ways to manufacture such a board. However, the website claims is requires a breadboard. My friend said he didn't see how that was reasonably possible. So, playground, I turn to you. What will I have to do to turn these schematics and parts into reality?

You want a solderless breadboard.

Let me know if you have any other questions, I'm an electrical engineer :smallbiggrin:

Thanks. I don't even know what any of this stuff means, but I'll run this by my friend and if he has any questions, I'll let you know.
