  • In this video, I want to share the result of an experience. I re-designed the sequencer module Bindubba from NonLinearCircuits with several modifications.
    The experimental part was the way I designed the PCB for getting all THT components at the back of the board with all control parts at the front.
    So I came up with some ideas (are they new? I don't know, have not seen them before).
    But it worked.
    And the module is really nice.
    Thanks, to NLC/Andrew!
    You can purchase the PCB for the original Bindubba module at the NLC web page:

    Enjoy.

    Nonlinearcircuits have some great modules. Looks good.

    I love NLC. Your redesigns, this one in particular is beautiful. So sleek. I love his very particular design aesthetic, but damn like all your modules this just looks so damn good. I've had to figure out how to make tht components work on SMD in a pinch (always 10u capacitors and power protection diodes because for some reason those are the two I always run out of), and I would have given up and just ordered a bunch of SMD resistors.
    God damn this whips ass. Great work.

      Wow, thanks so much! I know many people like interesting front panels and many different colors and stuff. I prefer a somehow more simple design.

      I like how unique the white and gold is, and I use different colored knobs on all my builds because when it comes to electronics for some reason I want them to look shitty and cobbled together, which is why all my stuff is covered in stickers - any stickers don't think about it just slap em on. But I also enjoy a clean and sleek design. Yours is smaller and I think the led matrix above the patch matrix is very intuitive

    great result on this one (well...as always!). Id be interested in seeing your process in getting the drawn schematic into your CAD software. I have done the same with NLC's triple Bong0, but it wasn't a smooth operation...

    • @TOILmodular
      @TOILmodular  8 місяців тому

      Oh, that would be tough one for making a video. My process is definitely also not smooth. I often have to try out new ways because the 1st try failed, space problems with components, traces, board connections… Sometimes I put stuff aside for week. Difficult

      It's a muscle you have to keep exercising. With opamps in pretty much every circuit I end up spending a lot of time on them in particular - swapping between dual/quad packages, swapping opamps within a package to make for better routing, etc. Same for other IC packages with multiple identical "units" like logic gates, switches, etc. It's also much, much easier if you don't try to make it an ultra-dense layout.

    The grid sequencer, ? is it your own invention? two questions. I'm sorry. However, I really like that device. Is there a link to its Board? Circuits. Would you be willing to sell a board. This is what I want to use to trigger two CEM3340 VCOs I have.

    • @TOILmodular
      @TOILmodular  4 місяці тому +2

      The design is not from me. It is based on the Bindubba sequencer from NonlinearCircuits. Andrew from NLC asked me, not to share my PCBs on GitHub, like I did for other modules, since he is still selling them himself. I respect that. But you can buy his PCBs at the NLC homepage.

    Is this the same HP as the original Bindubba? I like how youve moved the LEDs and gate outs to one side of the panel

    • @TOILmodular
      @TOILmodular  8 місяців тому

      The module is 125mm wide, a bit more than 24HP. The original NLC Bindubba is 28HP wide. I somehow liked having the LEDs separate. Looks nice, I thought. But it is also quite helpful to better follow the sequence and the gate out grid can be assigned more easily to the different stages.

      Sorry, I will not. I asked Andrew from NLC about that. He asked me not to do it, since it is his design and he is selling PCBs. So you can purchase the PCBs from his website.

    Does it not have a all step gate out? Is only gate per step?

    • @TOILmodular
      @TOILmodular  8 місяців тому +1

      That‘s right. There is no common gate out, only for specific steps. One needs to work with other modules using the clock signals. This might be an extension idea of the module design by using an OR gate for the two clock signals and adding another gate output.

      I did it much the same as you did. I solder my ICs directly (no sockets) since it's somewhat easy to remove them when they are soldered surface mount style.@@TOILmodular
