New to synths, want to have DX-7 sound or closest to it?
Dexed has been ported onto microprocessors in projects like MicroDexed, MicroDexed-touch both on Teensy and MiniDexed on Raspberry Pi.

How to start?
I LOVE my Vortex 2. Seriously, go that way. Play with Ableton, do the daw thing, or get any cheaper used polyphonic desktop synth like the Modal Skulpt (terrible build quality and support, but a great synth) a Korg Volca, or (if you're feeling frisky and already have a Raspberry Pi) check out the MiniDEXED project on GitHub for a real treat! You can totally go monophonic instead, but I think the keytar lends itself more to polyphony. Also, the Vortex is highly flexible and programmable, so if you want to, say, have one synth for bass, another for lead, and maybe even have a little drum machine hooked up, you could still play all that at the same time.

Ask HN: Manufacturing somewhat novel MIDI controller
You are about to bite off a lot. Ignore all the other advice in this thread, I do this for a living.
You have some software experience, this is good. Assuming you have embedded software experience (which is essential for what you are doing and not at all like web programming) you have a foothold to finish this project without going completely insane.
Hardware is a completely different beast. With software everything happens in your head and when you get stuck you can usually think your way out of it. With hardware, you really do need to learn to do things meticulously and step by step. There are many things that can go wrong. You will learn a lot on this journey.
Don't be afraid to ask for help. Finding a hardware community will be essential to do this as you learn the skills you need. You're going to make a lot of mistakes, best to go in embracing it
A good place to start is to join an open source community for MIDI. Two off the top of my head is http://www.ucapps.de/ for MIDI specific hardware and https://www.electro-smith.com/daisy
A large amount of the work you will find yourself doing at the beginning is just figuring out where and who to ask questions about things like the keybed and other hardware issues. None of this is terribly 'hard' but none of it is easy. Most of it comes from experience.
It is almost always best to use someone else's product when you are designing your first. Roger Linn (https://www.rogerlinndesign.com/) gave me some fantastic advice a couple years ago when I was trying to design switch caps: "Do you want to be a company that designs switch caps or one that designs synthesizers?" and that stuck. I don't want to design switch caps, so I bought them off the shelf, contracted someone to design my own, and moved on.
So to that end... just buy a couple keybeds from Fatar or someone else, or just grab a synth you already have or buy one off ebay and harvest the keybed from that (often times much cheaper than buying direct!)
Don't be afraid to spend money on tools. If you find something difficult, like soldering, I have not once regretted spending money on better tools. They grow with you and save you hundreds if not thousands of hours of unnecessary frustration. When you know you need a tool, find a way to get it.
Maybe I should make a blog post about this... hmm
Hope that helps!

how to make an “experimenter”?
Check out Daisy DSP from ElectroSmith. They have an entire platform you can build your own synth upon. Many new EuroRack modules being released over the last ~1.5 years are built upon the Daisy SDK.

Rendering audio blocks in a digital oscillator (hardware)?
For an excellent implementation of C++ embedded audio DSP, checkout the DaisySP project and associated hardware. The libDaisy audio drivers abstract this block processing well.

A Chord Synthesizer From Another Dimension
There is a github page for this that has downloadable firmware and a link to the firmware programmer which suggests that it’s running on a Daisy. Although it would be ethically super questionable at best, it probably wouldn’t be that hard to reverse engineer.
