Question for assembly: do I need to use 1206 resistors for R1 and R3 or can I use 0805?

Those carry some current so you want the parts in the BOM or equally power rated 0805s which i guarantee you dont have on hand since they are exotic and expensive

I am building this and have a problem. the ERA-V33J561V 560 ohm temp co 3300ppm resistor is now obsolete with nothing even close to it as an alternative. Could someone explain what it does and what should I do as an alternative. tia use 2 1k in parallel and change a resistor value (I forget which o...

Yeah, I don't have a spacer between screen and panel. Looked at my local electronics store and ace hardware, no luck on 3mm spacer. But I just measured it and I think 3mm might actually stretch the panel. I probably should have used a socket for the screens pins instead of soldering directly. The c...

Quick question: what type of midi trs does this require (A or B)?

Doesnt matter, either way PSImidi

Might want to look through the yarns code how and see how she implemented it.

Thats the official one. I havent recently looked at whats in and what isnt in stock but there really isnt anything specific needed, any equivalent spec parts will be fine

it looks like your missing the 3mm spacer at the top between the screen and panel so the buttons are catching on the flexed panel. The height of the panel at the top should be 10mm off the PCB. Its PCB-6mm spacer-screen-3mm spacer-panel

hi, after ..5y ? i'm finally about to power on my rev1.7 speakers and phone wired (no reverb tank for now).. but i'm a bit worried cause really i'm not an electrician at all. i did mesure the +15-15 years ago.. and went on with th vcos. hope nothing smokes i have security glasses on. question : i r...

when you have a way off ADC input like that, that usually means an open connection between the input and the teensy. Its 4 resistors and half an opamp per channel, check those again. Using 0.1 parts is really not needed, youre trimming the ADC anyway so it literally makes no difference if you use 5%...

look again. its a soldering issue on the input or a wrong value. check the opamp legs

That was my first thought as well, but it looks like it (the little notches on top of the black body are aligned with the dot on the silkscreen - unless that is what's wrong).

The dot on the switch should be on the same side as the dot on the PCB, it looks like it is

The files in the github repo are no good.

Really? unscrewing the retaining nut and pulling the tip out is somehow doing damage...?

Tightening down that nut when its hot can seize it up/deform the sheath when it cools. I've done it, its how i killed my first one

I'd skip the FX-888 and go straight to the FX-951. Yes its more than twice as expensive but its also about half as much as similar higher end irons that use heater tips (the single heater/temp sensor/tip things) and if you're planning on soldering anything other than occasionally, its well worth it...

You have to hold pitch mode then press the key or transpose buttons in play mode. If there are no batteries in the 303, it wont hold the programs so it will give you grabbled patterns

Ordered several Erica synth panels from JLCPCB. Quite amazed by the quality. Looks like proper aluminium panels I only know now that the next time, I have to remove number order from the front :doh: Such a waste... There are specific instructions about that in the order instructions. You just put J...

Dumb questions on QMIX perhaps, but what are the two “in” Jack’s for per channel? Are they stereo inputs or a pre-fader 2 channel unity mixer?

pre-fader 2 channel unity mixer

.. . Thanks for the Panel/PCBs btw. I saw that you did a Miasma build before, can you recommend a place to get PCBs done in low quantity? What about panels? I haven't done that part of DIY stuff yet. JLC for both the panel and PCB. Get a 2mm panel, not the stock 1.6mm thick. I had a lot of problems...

notepad++

You can get the jacks from synthcube or modular addict

Do the DoT 2nds Panels come with the window (preferably orange)? Would the same windows fit in a DIY Ornament & Crime?

No and No. That's why they are $3

They are all current. The DIY version is available with the tact switches or the click pots and each of those have their own panel. The circuit board for the electronics is the same thing for both versions (you simply dont populate some parts). The click pot version is NOT currently in stock since t...

under most circumstances, it will be fine if you dont cut the trace and accidentally power it up with the USB plugged in, the regulator is behind that trace so you will just be adding 5V to it but in the DOT, what will happen is that you will murder the SD card. You can solder blob it even after its...
