Sounds absolutely dreadful

For MS-420 DIY Synthesizer Filter Kit

This filter sounds like dog s**t. Sorry, just being honest. It doesn't sound good at all. Its more like a gain knob with some horrible distortion. Yes, I built it correctly. Ive been building stuff like this for decades. Just not a good design..,

Excited to build this kit!

For QUADTEC-101 - A DIY Open Source Digital Oscillator

Neat kit with excellent documentation. Organized and well-packed; fast shipping from Canada.
Friendly proprietor, too. Now to get to work!

Easy build, great result

For Nerve Center - DIY Eurorack Mixer

Great documentation, attention to detail in kit assembly, and some extra screws included in case one flies off into the void. I presume some of these are for the rails on your rack? It's thoughtful of you regardless, and convenient that the thread pitch matches the other screws in the design.

All I could suggest would be:
- DIP sockets for the opamps on the 'backpack' board
- maybe a smidgen bigger pads for the ceramic capacitors
- one of the faceplate screws (on the fader board solder side) was a little hard to tighten with the daughter board already installed - but it does tighten itself through the standoff if you turn from the front-facing (faceplate side) screw instead. Perhaps consider making the daughter board a mm or two skinnier, this would allow the hex key/phillips screwdriver more clearance.

Overall, very satisfied. Thank you!

Great module, arrived fast

For uBraids (Microbraids) | Complete Eurorack Module

A stylish compact Braids. Shipped fast, Arrived nicely and securely packaged. I love the sticker, it is a nice touch. Great signal level, beautiful crisp Braids sounds, works fine. A nice space saver.

Brilliant Companion for Any Semi-Modular Synth!

For QUADTEC-101 - A DIY Open Source Digital Oscillator

Very easy build, helpful seller, and a great module for those who may already have a semi-modular monosynth. Nice, rich yet charmingly digital timbres with CV control perfect for mixing into any patch, and the internal "VCA" makes it a very capable voice on its own. The fact that you can run this off a 9V battery without Eurorack power or case? Perfect for beginners! And all that is not even getting to its quadraphonic applications... let the outputs phase around, process each out through other modules and mix them back into a T H I C C stereo image!

The only things to look out for are that the 1V/Oct CV only starts tracking from about C3 and that there are (developer recommended) upgrades worth looking into (the possibility of a drop-in DAC upgrade and different resistor values for louder output). Also, if there's ever a Mk2, I would appreciate greater CV control over individual parameters, though that might just be wishful thinking :)

All in all, a perfect module for those just starting down the rabbit hole with a monosynth or two, or for those looking to sacrifice more of their wallets to the patch cable and LED gods!

Thank you so much for the wonderful review! I am working on a successor which will drop the quadraphonic capabilities, and trade them for CV control over all the parameters. It will also be smaller :)

Thanks Aditya!

Fantastic kit, amazing module!

For QUADTEC-101 - A DIY Open Source Digital Oscillator

And just like that within an hour or so I had a dual voice wavetable oscillator WITH cv-controllable quadrophonic output! This is by far the easiest, most well laid out kit I've seen so far. Truly impressive - thank you!

Great printed dodcumentation? Check. Only one value/type per resistor, capacitor, etc? No - seriously! CHECK! No odd or difficult calibration - check! Enclosure and battery adapter for stand-alone? WHEN IS MY NEW CASSETTE COMING OUT YOU ASK???

And just like that I'm running dual CVs out from my sequencer, with a little osc detuning, with one output out, one to Rings, one to Clouds, and the other to the spring tank like a true hipster and it sounds amazing.

Ubraids is an excellent Module!

For uBraids (Microbraids) | Complete Eurorack Module

It's very easy to find the desired sound. Play with the timbre and color knobs to explore the nuances of the current algorithm. Or after you've programmed a melodic sequence with your sequencer of choice swipe through the quantization (QNTZ) setting to rapidly apply variations to it. It's intuitive to patch and to operate and has an excellent overall sound quality.

The best you can get!

For Ornament and Crime | Complete Eurorack Module

Fantastic build of the O&C module from the beautiful panel design to the pcb. The thick protective glass on the screen is a great feature and the module works flawlessly.

Fantastic module

For Ornament and Crime | Complete Eurorack Module

You can tell CCTV takes pride in their work, the module is beautifully made. It's very solid, and software came functioning as expected without a hitch. Also, it looks amazing in my rack, the confetti design is what attracted me to this particulare o_c in the first place. Thanks so much!

A great build of an amazing module

For Ornament and Crime | Complete Eurorack Module

Love the panel art! It's now front and center in my system. Shipped super quick and was incredibly well packaged. Thanks!!

Hans | Jan. 17, 2018

Thanks dude, you're awesome!

For Moraydular Power Bus Wide- Eurorack - PCB Only

That was a pleasure doing business! First of all it is a really good deal for a nice product, this helps me a lot in creating my budget (but professional) modular. The product was sent quickly, especially when you consider the low costs for p+p. The communication was also good. It's nice to get personal updates.

But most of all I got really happy by unpacking and discovering the nice product (and personal note). Can't wait to get soldering and fix my synth.
