Well… rest in peace to the PYNQ. We have decided to make the last (viable) minute board switch to the Ultra96. We have already made more progress on the Ultra96 than we ever did with the PYNQ which is promising. There is much more documentation on the Ultra96 than the PYNQ. This board switch will truly help us move along our project and kickstart our sluggish development phase.
There are a few risks we must handle carefully. If our first PCB iteration does function as desired. We may not be able to print a second iteration in time and could lose our analog pathway. Our first attempt must be our absolute best. Everything else should integrate nicely.
This coming week, we will begin wave synthesis. Sam will finalize and order the PCB, Graham will integrate MIDI and finish the front panel, and Tom will work on synthesis modules on the Zynq.
