The project is going smoothly overall and we’ve been working on system level planning like I/O allocation, block diagrams, and front panel layout. Right now it seems like the largest risk that may jeopardize the project is the complexity and number of features that we want to add. A fully featured synthesizer has so many individual features, effects, and subtitles. We have not made any changes to our schedule or planes yet, but may need to slightly reduce scope and define more stretch goals to work on later given extra time.
