KONSTRUKT-8 is an expressive live performance instrument and sound design tool and a hands-on deep dive into electronic circuit design. Each of its eight DIY modules comes with a detailed build guide and can be explored on a breadboard first, allowing you trace every circuit design decision before assembling the final instrument.

KONSTRUKT-8 includes four fully analog drum voices:
* Kick Drum. A resonant bridged-T network produces deep, punchy kicks. * Snare Drum. A burst of filtered transistor noise layered over a tuned resonator creates a crisp snap. * Hi-Hat. Six dissonant square-wave oscillators are mixed, filtered, and overdriven to create metallic percussion. * FM Drum. Two interacting oscillators form a versatile percussion voice capable of kicks, toms, bells, and cymbal-like sounds.

A four-channel drum sequencer lets you tap in rhythms that loop automatically. Inside, shift registers store the pattern as a circular sequence of binary data.
All voices feed into a four-channel mixer with per-channel FX sends and a master insert, allowing you to shape the entire beat with external effects or the built-in distortion and compressor.
Two effects modules complete the system: an analog bucket-brigade delay (BBD) with flanger and delay modes, plus a diode-based compressor with sidechain capability.
