Nice! I’m glad yours worked right away. Also thank you, I’m hoping to have some beginners luck. I seemed to have order the wrong power adapter for my frequency central micro bus but I have plenty to work on until that arrives.

Hey Sam,

Ben at the warehouse took care of everything. Those guys are awesome. Seemed to be a mistake with shipping but all is good. I have plenty to build until the other VCOs arrive.

Thanks for reaching out,

200-3.5 mm jack sockets [ make sure I don’t run out ] they are pretty cheap .
and the pink bag had 3 different types of IC’s for various projects , got excited and put them away before I snapped a picture .

Reminds me I need to update my spreadsheets stuck to the wall as there’s a number of components in draws not tallied, I will end up buying them over again if they are not on the list…

Well, I’d like to see the module that needs that many input/outputs :wink:

…and that’s how you end up with three pink bags with a total of eighty 330k resistors that you still don’t remember what build they were meant for.

(I’ve actually built a couple things that used 330k resistors since I wrote that, so iirc I’m down to 78)

(Emphasis mine:)

And if you don’t, you’re down to zero and you need five.

just solder 3 together and you have some almost 1M’s

Or almost 100k in parallel, or almost 500k with two in parallel and one in series. Turns out they’re surprisingly useful :grinning:
