Synth-a-Sette
A Cassette Sized Analog Synthesizer
Making Synths Accessible
Other analog synthesizers are expensive and hard to understand. So many musicians, hobbyists, and students are missing out on the creativity synths can provide. So, we're creating a new type of synth that's easy to use, affordable, and fun to play!

Make a Banana Keyboard!
Create your own keyboard by connecting the touchpads to fruit. Or anything else conductive! The Synth-a-Sette is all about expanding creativity, and we can’t wait to see what you create with it!
(Subject to Change, we're Still Tweaking the Product!)

Making Music & STEM Fun
At MicroKits, we make electronic musical instruments anyone can enjoy and learn from. After the success of our Theremin Electronics Kit, we're jumping into the world of synthesizers with the Synth-a-Sette!

In Development Now
After a dozen prototypes, we've almost perfected the design of the Synth-a-Sette. We're crowdfunding our synth this summer to reach more people, and plan to manufacture our first batch by the end of this year.
