A test platform and circuit playground in your rack! A super simple, all through-hole build makes this an excellent first soldering project. Gives breadboard access to 2 potentiometers, 2 switches, 6 I/O jacks, and positive and negative power rails which can be conveniently switched on and off. 

Building is as easy as it gets, thanks to the circuit board and faceplate in one design. We do recommend soldering the protection diodes in first to avoid burning the other components, but once that is done you just have to solder the rest of the components in any order you like. In order to make a nice tidy module, always solder one pin of each jack, switch or pot. Check its alignment and adjust if needed before soldering the rest of the pins. Make sure you stick the breadboard on nice and straight or it will drive you nuts! 

When it comes to selecting switches - we have used custom mounting holes that allow a wide variety of switches to be used. Tayda part numbers are provided for an example but pretty much any switch with 4.5mm between the pins should fit. You can also choose different types of switch for the SPDTs such as on-off-on or momentary (on)-off-on. If unsure, send us an email sentientsynths@gmail.com - and we'll check for you.
