A friendly facebooker gave the answer.

You plug the input jack in, you pull the input jack out, you plug the input jack in, and you shake it all about

You do the Hokey Pokey and you turn yourself around

That’s what it’s all about



^^^if I owned any of your modules, that’s how I would use them.

I have a question about manually wiring the jacks of a euro module I’m converting to 5u, and will be manually wiring everything... which wire goes to the tip, switch and ground when the jacks are directly wired like this? I’m unfamiliar with this type of little itty bitty euro jack. I see there’s an...

I have a question about manually wiring the jacks. I’m building a par of these in 5u, and will be manually wiring everything... which wire goes to the tip, switch and ground when the jacks are directly wired like this? I’m unfamiliar with this type. I see there’s an indicator on the board on which w...

Here's an avatar for ya .... made it 175 x 175 pix so it's all ready for use. Or just add it to your hard drive. Or not. :) Woops ... I sortof forgot you already have the Laughing Man as your avatar ... that is FAR TOO COOL to change!! Eric The Red avatar - Yelling Dwarf - 01.jpg the laughing man h...

Next up, I’m working on a pair of Barton QTLFO. They are a pretty cool little module, it’s a “quad-trapezoid LFO”, and it kind of plays out like a little 4-step sequencer. I have 2 of them together, with 4-Barton Dual Nice Quantizer - so all 8 trapezoids can get quantized... followed by a pair of wa...

It’s finally happened. I finished my first set of modules. The bank of 10 Barton Quad VCA Mix modules are DONE. About 400 feet of Wire later, I finally have 10 finished modules in my system. They are only VCAs, so no noises for me yet. But 40 VCAs! I think I have enough... The photos of the wiring a...

I love em!

This is great! If you don’t mind sharing, where do you get these types of video clips?

Yay!!! Miss you

Finally started building this.. anyone know where to get a 500mh wah inductor?

I print on vinyl sheets with a sticky back. Can print any color Imaginable.

I buy for one project at a time, for me “one project” is typically about 10-15 modules. And then I usually buy 10x of what I actually need so o have most of what I need for the next one.

Yay! Looking forward to your update

Hahaha I just buy most parts in large quantities whenever I order stuff and don’t keep track of anything. Typically resistors and caps in quantities of 100, IC’s in quantities of 10-50 depending on the price... I typically end up having most parts in stock... there’s too much to even try to keep tra...

That’s a sexy module

Wow! That is quite a process! You obviously have this process nailed now. Sounds quite daunting for an absolute newcomer. And sounds expensive, until you see what companies are charging for custom panels. I make my own panels, and got the PP. (Price per MU) down to a few bucks. I buy blank aluminum...

ah, thanks!

I've been in situations where there was no management training or support, could have used material like that

When I get to my computer in a bit later today, I’ll PM you one of the pre-published versions. Shhhh. Don’t tell anyone.

Thank you Guys!

I’m working on a project soon that is going to have, what I think is a lot of Pots, which means the panels will be huge, and that will require a shit ton of pots.

If I get a trimpot od the same value, can I use that instead?

Not related to my DIY Projrct, but here’s part of the reason for my 1year absence. About 2-years ago I decided to go back to school for an Educational Doctorate in Organizational Leadership... fast forward a bit, I was approached to write a short 20-page guide on Organizational Analysis. It was just...

Some panel designs I have been working on. Klee Left/Right - These are going to be the top modules in the left cabinet. Instead of having the same panel design for both of them, I wanted them to mirror one another. This will also help to keep the patch cables out of the way as for both panels they w...

That was a whole bunch of rambling nonsense! Eric is a funny mofo ;) 2016 Podcast : https://waveformcity.blogspot.com/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UBsyWJdZHgM Lets also point out Zerosum Inertia. I believe Brian worked with Eric for a few years at Metasonix then produced a series of tube based m...

Inching forward one wire at a time... 4 modules done 6 to go.. Once I get the main wiring done for this half I’ll do the ground wires between jacks, flip it over and start the other half. While working on this I broke my 3D printer like a dumb ass... waiting for parts to arrive, but once they do, mo...

Most use the same size components as eurorack for through hole. The only thing bigger is the panels and the knobs and there is much more off board wiring. I am building a DIY 5U system and I am finding that there are less options for 5U than eurorack. For my DIY 5U, I am doing mostly Barton and Non...
