Erica Synths 4752275000150 Overview
Learn how to build a mixer module from scratch with the Erica Synths EDU DIY Kick Drum Module Kit, an analog kick drum module in Eurorack format that was inspired by the 808 and 909 kick drums. The module features a trigger input, accent input, manual and CV control of pitch, integrated pitch envelope, tone control, and distortion control.
This kick drum module is part of a DIY educational series that's designed to not only build a synthesizer from scratch but delves into the design and how components are chosen. The included 61-page manual takes you through the circuit-design process step-by-step, explaining every choice that was made and how it impacts the finished module. The kit includes the circuit board, electronic components, and mounting hardware. If you ever wanted to learn how to build a synthesizer but were intimidated by the process, these educational DIY kits are your perfect solution.
Note: Erica Synths will replace missing or faulty kit components, but because documentation is provided, there is no tech support or warranty. This is a DIY electronics kit and requires separately sold tools such as a soldering iron, multimeter, oscilloscope, wire cutters, etc. Erica Synths recommends using a breadboard to test the components BEFORE you build the module to verify that they are all functional. A Eurorack case and power supply are also required but not included.
