is a DIY project, my first for Eurorack where I had to source all of my own parts.&nbsp; After purchasing a set of PC Boards and front panel from Synthcube, I went looking for the rest of the parts.&nbsp; The BOM provided on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.befaco.org\/en\/abc\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Befaco site<\/a> was not especially useful, despite the otherwise good information.&nbsp; I applaud Befaco for giving the schematic diagram.<\/p>\n<h4>Sourcing Parts<\/h4>\n<p>The <strong>jacks<\/strong> are specified as WQP-PJ301BM.&nbsp; I found some equivalents on <a href=\"http:\/\/synthcube.com\/cart\/pj301bm-3-5mm-pcb-mount-jack-bag-of-50\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Synthcube<\/a>.&nbsp; I had to buy a bag of 50, even though I only needed 16, since I built two of these modules.&nbsp; It turned out that these jacks are identical to the ones I built the L-1 VC Stereo Mixer with, and that had a benefit in that I knew the four little feet could be cut off (see below).<\/p>\n<p>The <strong>pots<\/strong> are special to Befaco and available on <a href=\"https:\/\/modularaddict.com\/parts\/synth-diy-parts\/befaco-100kpot-parts\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Modular Addict<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>No part number was given for the knobs Befaco uses.&nbsp; I purchased black Davies 1900 clone knob with a metal insert from <a href=\"http:\/\/synthcube.com\/cart\/davies-1900-clone-knob-abs-plastic-6-4mm-solid-shaft\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Synthcube<\/a>.&nbsp; These work OK, although you tighten the set screw against the splines of the pot shaft.<\/p>\n<p>The remainder of the parts came from Mouser.&nbsp; Most <strong>resistors<\/strong> can be from the 270-VALUE-RC series, which are 1\/8 watt.&nbsp; The 4.7M is Mouser <span id=\"spnMouserPartNumFormattedForProdInfo\">603-MFR-12FTF52-4M7<\/span>.&nbsp; A couple of the needed values were out of stock, especially the 5.36K, so I mistakenly ordered part <span id=\"spnMouserPartNumFormattedForProdInfo\">71-RN60C5361F<\/span>.&nbsp; It was indeed a 5.36K 1\/8 watt resistor, but huge in size!&nbsp; You&#8217;ll see how I had to wrangle it in, below.<\/p>\n<p><strong>LED<\/strong> is Mouser <span id=\"spnMouserPartNumFormattedForProdInfo\">604-WP937EGW.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Power connector<\/strong> is a right-angle, Mouser <span id=\"spnMouserPartNumFormattedForProdInfo\">710-61201021721<\/span>.<\/p>\n<p>The <strong>standoff<\/strong> I used is an 11 mm with M3 thread, Mouser <span id=\"spnMouserPartNumFormattedForProdInfo\">855-R30-1001102<\/span>.&nbsp; But I discovered that a 12 mm length would be needed, so I added a washer.&nbsp; You would want <span id=\"spnMouserPartNumFormattedForProdInfo\">855-R30-1001202<\/span>.&nbsp; You&#8217;ll need one standard M3 panel screw, which you probably have lots of already.<\/p>\n<p>The <strong>AD633<\/strong> balanced modulator chip is Mouser <span id=\"spnMouserPartNumFormattedForProdInfo\">584-AD633ANZ.&nbsp; A bit pricey, but it&#8217;s the most expensive part.&nbsp; The TL072CN and TL074CN are standard.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Headers<\/strong> for connecting the two PC boards are Mouser <span id=\"spnMouserPartNumFormattedForProdInfo\">710-61301021821 and 855-M20-9980545.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Capacitors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>100nf:&nbsp; <span id=\"spnMouserPartNumFormattedForProdInfo\">581-SA105E104M<\/span>.&nbsp; I use them for all 0.1uf bypassing duties.<\/p>\n<p>220pf ceramic: <span id=\"spnMouserPartNumFormattedForProdInfo\">80-C410C221J1G.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>10uf electrolytic: <span id=\"spnMouserPartNumFormattedForProdInfo\">647-USR1E100MDD<\/span>.&nbsp; The important feature of this part is its small size.<\/p>\n<h3>Construction<\/h3>\n<p>Befaco&#8217;s assembly instructions are not too bad, but I can add to them.&nbsp; First of all, contrary to how they tell you to assemble the front panel, with the pots not fully seated to the board, I have a better way!&nbsp; If you cut off the small tabs on the pots AND if you <em>cut off the four small &#8216;feet&#8217; on each jack<\/em>, allowing the jack to sit flush, you will find that the heights of the pots and jacks are in perfect alignment.<\/p>\n<h4>My steps<\/h4>\n<ol>\n<li>Put the two sets of headers together and temporarily fasten the two boards together with the 12 mm standoff and the headers in place.&nbsp; The male header goes on the main (rear) board.&nbsp; Spread a 1 millimeter space between the mated headers, so that the bottoms of the headers are flush with the PC boards.&nbsp; Now solder the headers.&nbsp; Separate the boards.<\/li>\n<li>Fit the right-angle power connector in place and solder.<\/li>\n<li>Wash the PC boards, if you are using organic flux, and let dry.<\/li>\n<li>Assemble all parts on the main board.&nbsp; IC sockets are optional.&nbsp; Solder and wash.<\/li>\n<li>Assemble all <strong>but<\/strong> the jacks, pots, and LEDs on the front board.&nbsp; IC socket optional.&nbsp;Solder and wash.<\/li>\n<li>Fit the jacks, pots and LEDs into the front board, but do not solder.&nbsp; Place the panel over the jacks and pots and add their nuts, finger tight only.<\/li>\n<li>Using no-clean solder, solder the jacks, pots, and LEDS into place.&nbsp; Do the LEDs last, so you can put them at just the right height.<\/li>\n<li>Gently tighten up the panel nuts for the pots and jacks.<\/li>\n<li>If you used IC sockets, install the chips into them.<\/li>\n<li>Connect the two boards together, securing with the 3M screw into the standoff.<\/li>\n<li>Affix your knobs of choice.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>I had to cut off the end of one leg of a jack that protruded into the power connector.&nbsp; Everything else cleared just fine.<\/p>\n<h4>Pictures<\/h4>\n<p>I was frustrated that I could not find any rear photos of the A*B+C.&nbsp; So I took plenty.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_2499\" style=\"width: 510px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a
