I am on a DIY roll! Built this nonlinearcircuits Primal Hyperchaos<\/a> in less than a day. This was my second NLC chaos module. I’m getting used to doing SMD soldering. It’s more tedious and less relaxing than through-hole. But I’ve got my technique for 0805 size components now. This single PC board module was quite simple.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Got the panel and PCB from Synthcube the same time as I got the Spasm panel\/PCB set. I sourced my own SMD parts from Mouser. See the Spasm post for more about parts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All the SMD plus the 10-pin power header go on the back of the PCB. Pots, jacks, and LEDs go on the front side. I am still somewhat confused by the different jacks used on DIY Eurorack modules. Knobiconn, Thonkiconn, Erthenvar, whatever. Even Synthcube seems to get them confused. This board has large holes for tiny pins. I used what I’ve been calling Thonkiconn jacks. They fit the profile at least.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here they are powered up. The panel designs are inconsistent. Well, so are the PC boards. The pots line up but the jacks don’t. The white patterns are different and the blue markings differ as well. Not a big deal. Now I have to put these modules to work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
