Open NSynth Super is an experimental physical hardware instrument that provides a tangible interface for Google's NSynth machine learning sound-generation algorithm. The repository contains all software, firmware, schematics, and build instructions needed to construct the instrument yourself.

Use cases

• build a physical interface for the NSynth neural sound synthesis algorithm
• generate new sounds that interpolate between existing audio samples
• build a DIY hardware music instrument from open schematics
• explore machine learning audio generation in a music production rig
• customize or fork an open-source hardware synthesizer design

When to choose

• you want to build your own NSynth Super instrument from scratch
• you need a hardware interface for exploring ML-generated sounds
• you want open schematics and firmware to remix into your own instrument

When to avoid

• you need actively maintained software with up-to-date dependencies
• you want a plug-and-play commercial product rather than a DIY build
• you expect bug fixes or pull request reviews from maintainers
