This is my final design.
这是我的本科毕业设计.

[!WARNING] don't try to rebuild hardware, it has too many incorrect design, that will just waste your time and money.
请不要试着复刻硬件,有很多设计不合理的地方,复刻只会浪费你的时间和钱

digital waveguide synthesizer/数字波导合成器

This is a MPE capability digital waveguide synthesizer.It has plucked, woodwind and bowed engine.Or you can use it as a MPE midi keyboard(only one octave).
这是一个mpe兼容的数字波导合成器,有拨弦,木管和弓弦模型,也可以当成mpe键盘使用,尽管只有一个八度。

Questions

How big is the Transform PCB?

It measures 43.6 × 60.6 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Transform use?

37 parts, built around the CH552G, 74HC138 and CD74HC4067M. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.

Where can I download the Transform KiCad files?

From the a5632645/final_design repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is transform/transform.kicad_pcb and its schematic keyboard/keyboard.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Transform design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask a5632645 before reusing the design.
