Summer of Synth-DIY: week 7

Actual progress!

I finished soldering the last few components onto the Sound Lab PCBs (the two 100 ohm trimmers, and the 33k resistor on the S&H PCB).

I then decided to tackle the front panel. EPIC FAIL. A reminder of why front panels of almost any type are a PITA. Maybe I’ll try again with Lexan instead of acrylic, but I’ll need a drill press, and that will have to wait a while. I want this thing done!

On Sunday, I went and got a chunk of hardboard. Much better – though not see-through.

On Saturday after the EPIC FAIL and some required stewing about it, I did do a teeny bit of work on the Arduino Sequencer, though I think I’ll need some thinner gauge wire to make serious progress, since I want to chain the ground and 5V busses.

Also ordered a bunch more parts.
