Where do I start? If you are looking for other resources, here is a compiled list.
In some cases, the links are to products for sale without even any source code you can look at. Well, look at it like this. If learning how to completely understand how something works is your goal, then grab as much info and DIY it as much as you can. If time=$...and it does!...maybe you should consider just getting what you need so you can get to the business of making noise.
Links to projects that use an arduino as a part of a larger project. These are the kinds of things that I am focusing in on as well.
thingamagoop Its a thing of Beauty! Look at the circuit. Breath it in. See how it plays to the strengths of the microprocessor for control and LFO and Op amps VCO. Even a transconductance opamp for VCA. (At least thats what it looks like). They do not sell this kit any more, but the source is there to see and the circuits are there to read. Learn! Then, when you realize that you totally could build it, but its much more satisfying to hear results, go get one of their kits.
Rad Fi Basically, there are two ATMega chips with a Delay/Glitch synth and Patchable synth as well as all the connectors, pots, LEDS, switches and some CMOS chips. An excellent kit. Documented and hackable. If your looking for a good start, this is it. The components that this library has are totally compatible and would supplement this kit very well.
Electric Druid Sells a library based on PIC chips looking to fill the gaps of the hard to find CEM and SSM synth chips. Pretty swappable in circuits. 5 Quid a pop for loads that have been out there and battle tested for years...good deal. A good example is here. Small bear has a tap Tremolo built on the chip.
Links to projects that are all in one deals
[Mozzi] (http://sensorium.github.io/Mozzi/) a VERY good library for sound generation. Includes Midi stuff as well. If your looking for an all in one library, this is excellent.
[Granular Synth] (http://www.notesandvolts.com/2014/07/build-auduino-granular-synth-part-1.html) There are a ton of resources on how to build this project. Good luck.
ROCKIT There are a few things here, one is the rockit. I need to look at it a bit more, but again, it appears to use the ATMega for LFO and voltage controls and offloads analog goodness where that needs to be. It has two Digital Pots..which is a great way to offload vca and filtering.

technoblogy overall great info on ATTINY
