I've been entertaining the idea of building something akin to the Ginkosynthese Grains, more or less a microcontroller board in Eurorack format which accepts CV between 0-10 V and outputs filtered audio.
However, as a programmer who got into electronics through microcontrollers, I feel like I'm missing some fundamentals around properly regulating power and working with audio, like how to avoid/reduce noise and making circuits robust to user error (e.g. plugging outputs into outputs).
In the vein of @clasticartistic's list of tools, my very work-in-progress list of things to read here (suggestions very welcome!)
Electronics in general
- @-pegasus' Electronics From Scratch series
- Tony R. Kuphaldt's Lessons in Electric Circuits
- Raspberry Pi's Hardware Design With RP2040 - covers PCB design and supporting circuitry for microcontrollers, and also has example audio circuitry
