It took quite a while but it is up and running now. Stephan at MetatronicMods did a awesome job troubleshooting it. There were multiple problems that I could not have diagnosed myself. The connector ...

I found someone semi-local to have a look at it. Hopefully it will be up and kicking soon. In the mean time I have 2 Mega Percussive Synths to solder up!

Hello. After many years of being packed away, I have resurrected my 5U modular. I built a Klee back in 2008 that I was never able to get fully functional. The biggest problem is that the patterns w ...

I'm happy that was able to help in some way. It was a long time for me between populating the boards and finishing my Klee. But when I was troubleshooting I remembered hesitating on soldering that r ...

I had time to sort out everything today. I had a done a shoddy solder job on a few of the cables causing the gate bus problems. Everything is working as it should. It's all calibrated. . . I ha ...

That's what I suspect all of my problems are too. I might have a bad switch in there as well.

Oh, I'm the happiest of us all. This is a really powerful sequencer.

Now, Its play time

There still seems to be some gate bus issues to iron out b ...

UP AND RUNNING!!!!!
The parts came in yesterday. Thank you, thank you, thank you. I re-stuffed everything last night and today I have a working Klee! I still have to go through the check list and ...

I'm eagerly watching the mailbox. In the meantime I was inspecting the digital board and i may have found my problem. There is a through hole under R20 that I had soldered the lead to instead of whe ...

Out of curiosity, can you tell me were the 4034s made by SCL?

Yes, they are!

I can take stock of what chips I do have for both the analog and digital boards and send those to you at no charge.

It looks like U6 and U7 are dead. U5 was completely blown to pieces. I'm going to have to order some parts before I continue trouble shooting. There might be some other dead ICs but i just can't te ...

Oops. I fried something. I miss-plugged the Klee into a homemade extension cord from my modular's power supply...
now there are lots of problems...
Sad

Nothing loads except random patterns.

Hello,
I am having trouble with the load function on my newly finished Klee. U5 isn't responding to pulses from the load switch or the external load. I can see that the pulses from the switch i ...

If this is the case, adding transistor or comparator input stage would solve it.

Hey, I'm having this same problem. Do you have a transitor or comparator recommendation to boost the clock in ...

i used c&k A12515RNZQ

mouser p/n 611-A12515RNZQ

Yes! That looks like it will work and it doesn't cost a fortune. Once my order of switches and LED's comes in I should have everythin ...

I have been sourcing parts for this panel and have not been able to find an eight position rotary switch that is evenly spaced like I have it laid out. If anybody has a source I would be happy to hea ...

That would be incredible. Please let me know what you would need to help make it happen. I have been working on the alignment of everything for the negative. There are still a few things to get jus ...

I was going to buy a blank dotcom panel and have it printed, but after making some phone calls I think that is going to be too pricey. The local shops are not interested in one offs or even small run ...

In the RANDOM IN section, I would replace REFERENCE with THRESHOLD

That's a good tip. I what to get the layout a good as possible because I am thinking of having this silkscreened for me which is ...

So does it all make sense to you? It will take 32 more LEDs to show what stage is active in each programming section.
Thanks so much for your input. I am going to shift it around a little and see ...

Here is a Klee panel design in dotcom format that I worked on yesterday. There are still some alignment and spacing issues to work out but I thought that I would post it anyway to see if folks though ...

have you already made the Verbos VCO?
I have been thinking about trying it, possibly with a CGS or Serge Waveshaper. This would get pretty close to the Buchla Complex Waveform Generator.

I have ...

I got mine! Still working on quad panel design. I have been thinking about trying to match the Buchla panel as much as possible. Is anyone else going down that road?
