I Built a Hexagon Modular Synth with Daisy Seed

I’ve been pushing my DIY synth designs further than ever — and this time, I may have painted myself into a corner. In this video, I show off my new hexagon-shaped desktop synth modules, designed to connect together like a modular honeycomb system. Each unit is powered by a Daisy Seed, and for the first time, I’m fully utilizing every input, output, and control the chip offers. On paper, it’s kind of perfect: Standalone desktop synths Fully modular and expandable Maximum use of each Daisy Seed A unique hexagonal form factor that just looks cool But there’s a downside… Fully exploiting the Daisy Seed means a LOT of internal wiring, and the inside of these modules has gotten messy fast. That raises a big question: Do I: Keep going with the hexagon desktop system and tame the wiring chaos? Or retreat back toward a more traditional modular format and accept underutilizing the hardware? This video is part demo, part design breakdown, and part honest reflection on the tradeoffs of DIY instrument design — especially when form, function, and creativity start pulling in different directions.
