Plinky is an 8 voice expressive polyphonic touch synthesizer that specializes in fragile, melancholic sounds.

Plinky supports 4 external CV modulation sources, each with their own LFO. It also has global delay, reverb, high pass filter and saturation units along with a simple mixer, arpeggiator, sequencer and sampler.

With the blessing of Plinky's original designer mmalex, Making Sound Machines is producing the 2024 run of kits for Thonk. Join the workshop and let's build the new and updated Plinky v3 together.
