Got the PCBs for the Oct/Hz converter from Magnus Danielson and the trigger converter (Doepfer type) today. It's 7 cm x 5 cm. I have only tested it with +/- 15V and don't know if values have to be changed for +/- 12V as I'm not an electrician.
It is meant to use an Hz/V synth with a MIDI/CV converter that doesn't support it or an external V/Oct sequencer or voltage source. The trigger converter is needed to trigger the MS series with a standard voltage trigger as they are using an inverted trigger similar to the Moog switch trigger.


Here is the interest/development thread:
http://www.muffwiggler.com/forum/topic-23490.html

I ordered a batch of 55 (0 left) and can offer them for 7 Euro each plus shipping.

You can find the documentation including a modified schematic and the board layout here:

Edit: All boards are gone!

This is how it looks like when it's stuffed:

Posted Image, might have been reduced in size. Click Image to view fullscreen.

Note: I used different trimmers then mentioned in the documentation for P1 and P3 because I had only 50K trimmers in this footprint. P1 is only a voltage divider so that the 50K should work there, too, and P3 is a 10K, so a 50K shouldn't hurt. In the prototype I used a jumper for P3 as it didn't have an effect when I calibrated it with my MS-10. I will test this PCB with my CS-30.

P3 is meant to ease the calibration process.

Eeek, I can haz 2?
Also, it will be for my CS5 and D85 solo synth, so any tips/need to know on how you got it working with your CS30?

Would anyone here be interested in another batch?

I would make one if 30 or more PCBs are spoken for.

Current state:
Muffwiggler x3
sequencer.de x9
= 12 total. So I would need interest in 18 more PCBs to make a new batch.

Preparations for batch 2 have begun: I added a second hole for the tempco to support big tempcos, so batch 2 will be with Rev C:

Won't make another batch so take them while you can.
