702 and 705 boards arrive
Two weeks later and the VCO and ADSR boards have arrived from iTeadStudio, and they look great. Went for 1.6mm rather than 1.2mm thick boards this time, so they look a bit less luminously green:
The dual envelope board is the same size as the VCA, but the VCO board just seems massive at 15x15cm. Here they are next to a Doepfer SEM filter for comparison:
Nearly big enough to eat your dinner off. Once again nearly zero skill or invention involved, just shamelessly copying the same layout as the originals, only with any extra components that would have been bodged in on the originals added as standard.
Apart from the extra silkscreening and a few extra test holes for ground and power, the only other change is that I’ve included holes for a 15-way 0.1″ socket rather than the possibly unreliable edge connector from the original. I’m intending to use something from Molex KK range, if I only I can manage to order the right thing from Farnell.
I’ve started populating a couple of the VCO boards already, 100 resistors soldered last night, some way to go yet.
