For 808 Kick Drum Clone PCB
Awesome. as described, it works great, bangs hard. the Muff Wiggler thread is very important for debugging, some of the info could be mentioned on the product page, in particular that accent should be shorted to the +V by default.
Mouser BOM had a few resistors too many, but its a value of a few cents only.
thanks for providing this awesome PCB.

You're right - I should explain the accent here. Optionally you can wire it to a jack - and have voltage control over the loudness of the kick. However - it requires some amount of voltage to make any sound. (More voltage gives you a louder sound.) So a lot of people prefer to tigh the accent high (solder a wire between the tip connection of the jack - and the positive leg of your power supply) - thus losing voltage control over loudness - and opting instead for a high velocity kick every time it's triggered.
