About Hex ډیجیټل پولیفونیک سینتھیسایزر

Hex cor یو ډیجیټل پولیفونیک سینتھیسایزر دی چې د کپیسیټیو کیبورډ، د سیګنال ماډولیشن لپاره پوټینشیومیټرونه او د تطبیق وړ لوپر لري. د دې وسیلې ډیزاین چې د DIY کټ په توګه هم شتون لري، په مختلفو شرایطو کې د کارولو لپاره مطلوب شوی دی او په تعلیمي او فعالیتي اړخونو تمرکز کوي. هغه اجزاوې چې دا وسیله جوړوي ۱۰۰ سلنه د بدلولو وړ دي، د ترمیم حق، اسانه جوړولو او د اوږدمهاله پایدار کارونې لومړیتوب ورکول کیږي. د دې طریقې سره موږ هڅه کوو چې پراخ لیدونکي الکترونیکي موسیقۍ ته معرفي کړو.

Production Technology
Products interface is designed in a tidy minimalist fashion, considering the users tactile experience which also suits visually and motorically impaired individuals. HEX cor is supported by a thin CNC engraved wooden base, attached to the bottom of the printed circuit board, protecting the sensitive electronic components. Instruments UI consists of concisely annotated interactive components and capacitive touch-sensitive keyboard located on the PCB. The latter omits the addition of mechanical keys, reducing the product's size, enhancing mobility and lowering the final cost.
Inspiration
HEX cor stems from authors concepts and experiences in developing didactic tools and media art installations, aiming at creating an affordable, portable and intuitive electronic instrument that crosses the boundaries of music-making, play and education. Our objective was to address the problem of affordability with a boldly designed printed circuit board that carries both interactive user elements and functional parts.
Project Duration
The development of the project started in 2020 in Ljubljana, Slovenia and was finalized and released in early 2023. Since then it was showcased across numerous venues and used as tools for various educational workshops.
