Count me in for a future run, or any possible extras. Or if anyone changed their mind, I'll buy the face + board off you.

Love the feedback demo, Rico!

Got my board and panel today. I'll be building it up this weekend and it'll be the first time I've done anything with SMT. Here's hoping my hands are steady enough.

How many mm distancing did you use for the subboard?

Seems Mouser is out of all the colors with the exception of red...Anyone else know where to get these 60mm led sliders?

There are orange too if you go 100kohm, that should be okay according to CGS-website.

I changed my order from green and red center detent 50kohm to 100 kohm center detent orange and red since the red and green 50 was gonna be shipped in..like september..

I'm not going to do any of this from my phone, but here's what my personal strategy would be re: finding sliders. Take the original Bourns part # from the page @ Mouser and punch that in at Digikey, Farnell, etc. and see who else has some in stock. Bourns products are widely stocked, there must be other vendors.

Checked farnell, did not find..but maybe punched in wth wrong format for their site..

Found some 15mm center detents on mouser...Are these cool to use with this module? I'm just wondering if the extra 4mm makes that big of a difference. Seeing that I don't have the fattest fingers in the world I'm not really sure it will.

Can somebody post a picture of the finished daughter board?

What are the small a,b,c,d,e pads for?

Also, it is a typo on Ken's BOM for the quantify of the 10n capacitors. I only see 4 in the circuit.

It's the first post. You can see some semi-translucent tubes nestled above the resistors on the board. Those are polystyrenes.

I hope someone can let me know whether I need to do some troubleshooting on mine. When I have all the 'L' sliders at minimum I still have signal at the lower comb output. It's the same when I have all the 'U' sliders at minimum: signal is present on the upper comb output. Is this the expected behavior? To my ears, both upper and lower comb outputs sound very similar, if not exactly the same. The main output sounds the same as the upper/lower but at a lower level. So do I need to start looking for solder bridges and checking component values?
