Yup. With that extension, each layer in Inkscape represents a PCB layer, including an edge cut layer, if that's what you mean.

Re: Hiss noise from Behringer 914 fixed filter bank
If the output volume of the 914 is low, does that mean you're turning up the gain on your Tascam when you connect it (compared to when you connect the Elements)? Because turning up the gain will amplify the noise floor too, so that could be where your noise is coming from. It's also possible it's ju...

Re: diy partial-kit frustration rant
Here's an idea that I don't think has been mentioned here yet here, and it's a technique I sometimes use as a builder: start looking into ordering all the parts before you even order your PCBs. I started doing this initially to see what projects have a lot of similar parts so it would make sense to ...

Re: NeoTrellis + Teensy grid controller
No issues that I can think of. The only thing that would potentially be a concern would be how you protect the Teensy digital ins/outs, but if you're using the Temps Util/o_C input/output circuits, you'll be fine.

Re: A circuit that does something when an audio signal is present
You need to rectify the AC input signal and feed it into a capacitor... Do you know where I can find a good synth diy example of this? I'm assuming the rectification is done using a diode of some sort - maybe two. Thank you. Rectification isn't synth specific, so you can just look for "half-wave re...

It's an interesting idea, OP, and please move ahead with it if you want. Don't let people saying "why do we need that" stop you. If it's better enough, people will use it. But it needs to be a lot better than the existing options in order to replace them. If it's a little better, you won't get a cri...

If you're ok with the Ornament and Crime UI, then you might be interested in the OCP: http://diy.plum-audio.com/projects/OCP/
It's an O&C that's all through-hole DIY and it has a few niceties that the O&C/uO_c doesn't, like attenuverters on the inputs. It's bigger than a uO_c but not a lot bigger.

You could also do something similar to the MAX/Jitter stuff in Processing, if that's more your thing. I did something like that once long ago (now lost the code) but a screencap of that is actually my profile pic here.

Re: Help from electronics guru please
Looks pretty good to me. My one note is that you've labeled the input that goes to pin 11 "trigger" but a gate signal will likely be more useful in your case. The switch will only be switched to when the signal on pin 11 is high, so if you use a trigger on that input it won't switch for very long si...

Also I want to second the recommendation to take it slow. Memory Palace and Structure both are pretty powerful and will keep you quite busy for a while if you just get one and nothing else. After playing with either for a while you'll start to get a feel for the best way you want to expand.

Re: Help from electronics guru please
Since you don't need your two clock signals to be mixed, you can use an analog multiplexer IC to switch between the two clock signals (as guest already mentioned). The CD4053B has three 2-to-1 switches so that'd be a decent one to use (you only need to use one of them). (This is similar to the Doepf...

Re: Basic Attenuator Question
Just a small FYI note for OP: The reason such a circuit works to attenuate the signal is because it's working as a voltage divider. It's a great basic electronics concept to learn about, it's used all over the place, and it's very handy. I highly recommend looking into voltage dividers.
