Building out the projects from Craig Anderton's Book Electronic Projects for Musicians.
Electronic Projects For Musicians

This book was a primary inspiration for me when I was growing up, and I've always wanted to actually complete a good amount of these projects. The parts listed in the projects were always obsolete or difficult to source. Having a little more experience than when I was a kid, I took to time to revisit some of these projects. Not sure I'll post all the projects, since some aren't really projects ("PROJECT 19: Using a Volt Ohm-Millameter"), but maybe I'll try post something in the spirit of those projects.

OBJECTIVES

  • Modify existing schematics with parts that are currently in stock and with similar electrical properties<
  • Try to design the PCBs for through hole components to make it easier for more people to create the boards
  • Design the PCBs to be friendly with desktop PCB milling machines should one choose to go that route.
    • I tried to keep most of the traces on the bottom side of the board
    • Where top side traces where necessary I kept those straight with large vias so people could just use a jumper wire
  • Design the boards and face plate to fit within the Eurorack standard
  • Document additional modifications and findings

PROJECTS (so far)
