Eurorack Schematics

Our Eurorack schematics represent our personal (non-professional, non-expert) explorations into synth DIY. Many of these designs borrow heavily on the work of others (credited where due). Most are based on common analog and solid state components–no coding necessary. None of these designs were reviewed by anyone with the slightest hint of an electrical engineering degree.
