If anyone is interested in capturing one of these Goldilocks Analogue boards, they are now available in two places. For those of you in Australia, I'd recommend Little Bird Electronics . For those not so lucky, I'd recommend Tindie (which means I'll ship them to you personally). Software & Documenta...

The Goldilocks Analogue pre-production has been completed, and a wrap-up is here with all of the relevant production files.

The bootloader timeout is too short for some machines running Windows 10, so I made it 4x as long as previously. The bootloader will flash the LED several times before launching the installed application. In the Arduino IDE if you type !!! into the serial monitor set on 38,400 baud and only hit "Sen...

Well finally, the Goldilocks Analogue has made it to a Kickstarter campaign . As noted on the campaign page, thanks go to Andy and everyone at CCHS for encouragement, and listening. Angus for his SMD skillz, and lots of production tips. Jon at Freetronics for kicking off the whole thing in 2013. Fre...

The Goldilocks Analogue V3 is working very well. I've built a synthesizer to test both the analogue outputs and the use of the MSPI Mode on the USART . Good news is that it works as hoped! Following up on that success, I've decided to add more features. Firstly, changing the 3.5mm socket to add a mi...

I recently built this multi-oscillator synthesizer with the latest Goldilocks Analogue prototype.

Nicely showcases the FTDI EVE capabilities, as the GPU within the Gameduino 2, supporting graphical widgets with almost zero CPU overhead.

OK, so I didn't even build the last PCB. The SPI bus is overloaded by having both DAC and input device (SD card or SPI EEPROM / SRAM). I spent a long time trying to stream audio from the SD card on the SPI bus to a RAM buffer and then back out the same SPI bus to the DAC. Basically, interrupting tra...

The PCBs for the latest Goldilocks Analogue prototype (3) are now back. I hope that this is the last prototype before a production version can be finalised.

I've updated the "official" pins_arduino.h to reflect your proposal, together with a release of code which supports Arduino IDE 1.5.x.

Thanks again.
