Printed Circuit Boards

Printed Circuit Boards

These pages document adaptations I have created of various bits of Buchla
circuitry.

These should be considered advanced projects, and should only be attempted
by people with extensive knowledge and experience in electronics,
particularly
in terms of practical construction and debugging techniques. The boards
are
dense and the documentation is sparse.
If you are just
getting started with Synth DIY, we recommend starting with kits
by Blacet Research or
PAiA, or boards by
Music
from Outer Space. (There are numerous other kit and
PCB manufacturers, but those are relatively newbie-friendly.)

If you try to build one of these projects, you must assume that you will be
on your own, and be confident enough to tackle the project under those
circumstances. I am interested in learning about people’s experiences
in building the boards, and will try to answer questions over e-mail,
but I don’t have time to do any hand holding.

Any electronic project may present a risk of injury or
