Synth DIY Wiki is your friend.

Go here: https://sdiy.info/wiki/

Type "Thomas Henry" into the search box.

Scroll down to "Papers and Articles"

Look at the "On Web" column, click on "Electronic Music Circuits: The Reprints, Vol 1" then on the next page click on "The_Reprint_Collection_by_Thomas_Henry_CC_BY_NC.pdf"

Enjoy the rabbit hole!

Hiya

I made myself a little cheatsheet with all the eurorack dimensions and sizes I use regularly

Though I'd share in case anyone else found it useful

Hi all,
the no post purge made me step forward and stop just reading. So just to let you know im here, synth obsessed and electronics mad. Would like to be able to help out with any builders out there and people wanting to learn as well as writing tunes if any body is up for it .

thanks for all the great resources, ppl.
i'm currently teaching myself electrical engineering using the great khan academy.
i don't know linear algebra too well and i don't know any calculus, but it should be ok just to get an overview.
https://www.khanacademy.org/science/ele ... gineering/

if you haven't used khan academy before, you should check it out. it has lots and lots of material on maths and science presented in a simple format using voice and drawing on a black board. like this:

Has anybody the PDF from the synthwiki: https://static.miraheze.org/sdiywiki/5/ ... _BY_NC.pdf ? The File there is corrupt and only 64Mb. Thanks

[Alfrede]

Okay i got over Archive.org and a little bit of Pain. I will Upload the file to the Synth wiki.

Db of moving air vs Db watts vs Db volts vs DbU vs Dbfs- this has most of what you want to know.

Hi Alfrede, did you successfully post this on Synth Wiki? I wasn't able to find it. Thanks!

[EATyourGUITAR]

not free but anyway if you want an online video course in soldering this is it

if you want free look for pace soldering videos on youtube

[Alfrede]

Yes but the file was changed by the author in the synthdiy wiki.Can you try the link again?

Thanks, Alfrede. I tried the link but still unable to download. Tried Chrome and Safari.The Electronotes link to the Google drive isn't working either. I would pay for a copy if I could find one.

I’ve built many guitar pedals and ma familiar with Eagle PCB. I want to get started building Eurorack stuff. I need a parts library does someone have a link? Speaking of which where do you source parts?

I might give KiCAD a try. If someone ha a link to resources for that pass those along!

A couple years ago Georgia Tech started a "Fundamentals of ECE Design" course targeted as juniors. As part of this, I'm putting together some video review of circuit theory. I just posted one about how to think about representing information as voltages vs. currents, and on input and output impedances:



There will be more to come.

[abovenyquist]

A follow-up to my last post; here I talk about op amps, Norton amps, OTAs, and 2164-style current-in, current-out VCAs.

Throwing this inkscape file (basic components and punch holes) out there in the hopes that someone finds it useful--so feel free to critique, build upon, or post your own. This has been for personal use so.

As far a debugging sdiy, see craque's post on page 1! Especially numbers 3 and 4. And Here's Ray Wilson's page on debugging.
