Today I drilled some panels and designed layouts for them. I also wired @EddyBergman Ā“s Noise module but havenā€™t tested it yet. Iā€™ll do that tomorrow and cover the panels with labeled film. Meanwhile, I heard radio plays by Ghostbuster John Sinclair and Jan Tenner šŸ™‚ ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/free1/uploads/lookmumnocomputer/original/2X/3/3ee0945409922d803da2d851ca048694db23afd8.jpeg) ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/free1/uploads/lookmumnocomputer/original/2X/5/51cb07ceb675d5c575b355a3eb9d7d422d2f2c3b.jpeg) ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/free1/uploads/lookmumnocomputer/original/2X/d/d04cdcced160b958f2e81c858ee42099209f485d.jpeg) ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/free1/uploads/lookmumnocomputer/original/2X/d/dfe6d820cb7462c5e75a696834483ac053baa5a3.jpeg) As always, the panel size is Eurorack. I am not allowed to start with Kosmo format because I know that I will then not build anything else and that soon there will be no more space in my apartment šŸ¤Ŗ šŸ™„ šŸ˜¬ ---

Ahhhā€¦you used SMD resistors/capacitors? Is that what Iā€™m seeing? Thatā€™s very smart. I was looking at the BOMā€™s and then the boards and thinking how small the parts would need to be. I had been looking at ordering smaller resistors, but I like the idea of just doing SMD for them. Which size did you use? I saw you built a Peaks as well. I just finished designing a Eurorack panel for it and submitting the order along with 2 different updated Clouds panels. I think next on my list for design are Elements and Tides, but I will still need to design about 6 more panels after those. ---

Yeah, I wanted to try SMD resistors in stead of mounting them upright. It was suggested in the build document. I used 0805, but you could easily go up or down a size. It looks neat, compared to the Bassline Iā€™m building with regular Ā¼W THT: ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/free1/uploads/lookmumnocomputer/original/2X/9/955f6a727f4cc02b11a8875fd0fb99c57018149e.jpeg) ---

well now that makes me want to try to build it smd style lol. I looked at that board yesterday and put it back in the bag and slid it away from meā€¦ effin denseā€¦ lol ---

I thought about that but these particular boards are so dense with parts that I think I personally would have a really hard time making sure that I donā€™t have a part accidentally touching another part. If it were me designing these boards I would have stacked 2 instead of had one that is so congested. ---

@analogoutput After that I googled but didnā€™t find anything, I know Murphyā€™s law but thatā€™s different I think šŸ™‚ Whereby, if Kristian Blasolā€™s ā€œjam tableā€ suggested by @juggle is not properly attached, then it could happen that murphys law happens ā€¦ lets hope it will not! BTW ā€¦ SUCCESS, we have a new first time worker. @EddyBergman Ā“s Noise Module works like a charm. The grainy noise is awesome !! When its complete, I will post again pictures of the whole construction process but first i have to label the panel. Thanks again to Eddy, his layouts are great! Small intermediate update: I wanted to make a little change and put Eddyā€™s name on the adhesive film. But of course I didnā€™t consider that I always make them a little bigger so that I still have some leeway to position. And of course his name was put too far down. Now you can only see the top half ā€¦ ā˜¹ ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/free1/uploads/lookmumnocomputer/original/2X/1/176493f2e7c9b7d84879b5e6d2c194be08fea635.jpeg) ---

Iā€™m so happy to hear that! How about the Highpass Grainy Noise? Is it softer in volume than the rest? ---

- Uff \* I havenā€™t tested that yet, just plugged it in for a short time and more or less tested whether something was coming out everywhere, but the grainy noise immediately won my heart and Iā€™m really looking forward to playing with it! ---

As said elsewhere get a bigger apartment, of better still start experimenting with hanging modules from the ceiling. Iā€™ve seen many studio layouts in pictures I found on the net but never saw that anybody used that bit of space. This is unexplored territory, so it requires a daring attitude, but imagine your curved rack starting on your desk stretching upwards and continuing on the ceiling. You can then turn knobs and flick switches like in a cockpit of a jumbo jet ! ---

All thatā€™s left is the panel, jacks and two vactrols. Out of interest - any one got any ideas on how to wire two around the back to create a double delay - series and parallel. Iā€™m not familar with double delay lines - so a conceptual outline was be just welcome as solder and wire advice ---

> Desolder this piece as well as it will be replaced with a 10 pin power shrouded header. You will also be removing all but 3 pins of the header so that it will sit flush with the 2399 board and allow power to be displaced appropriately. Gaaah. Hope itā€™s not drawing a lot of current. ---

Thanks Rich, I had a five pin header spare but youā€™re right - I should replace it with a 10 pin flush to the board. I didnā€™t think that leaving the extra pins would be an issue. Thanks for pointing that out. Whatā€™s the problem? Iā€™ll have to google how to measure current draw too.
