  I'm wondering how eaux claires is pronounced here
  • cocoflunchy 1mo ago
    Kind of like "oh-clare". It means clear waters.
    • poulpy123 1mo ago
      So close to the french pronunciation? I would have expected to be heavily americanized like Detroit

  As someone without musical ear but a healthy respect for makers of instruments of all kinds, this was a great article! I tend to think that the bar for building e.g. a small synth is like those by mitxela [1], with a tiny microcontroller running C on the metal. Then the author here uses multi-threaded Python to schedule notes and do millisecond-length powering of 30+ solenoids and make thousands of people feel it's a proper instrument?! Wow!
