I populated my Setback board last night with the components I had on hand. Need to order a handful of few parts to complete.

You're going to need to trim those leads...

I was up late and forgot I left it like that and was amused when I walked in and saw it this morning. I figured somebody would get a laugh out of it  ;D

I've had those nights myself.

I added a couple of extra trim pots to help dial it in. Now just need some graphics

Finished it up. Running it at 12V.  I just kind slung the graphics out on this one and it came out too light. I might redo it at some point but this is definitely good enough for now.

Would have loved to used the tails function but the way it's implemented on the board I couldn't use a panel mouned toggle and didn't want two stomps so close together

This was my first attempt at the elongated mount holes. I played twister with some of the pot lugs so the board isn't floating and to get it to fit sideways on a 12 HP panel

Nice. How does it sound?

Sounds great! I have a trim for the repeat level that lets me easily dial it in for the longest repeats before it oscillates and it just sits underneath really nicely. The volume drop when engaged is a bit tricky but Brian helped me put in extra trims to help balance that out too so it's not terrible.

Top-notch twister skills indeed!
Criticism is encouraged: constructive, or otherwise.

Wait, there's a loss of volume? That doesn't sound good at all.

Yeah, kinda bugs me but working on it.  Also I'm getting a cleaner signal on the 9v option so working thru that as well.

Very nice! Love the aesthetic.

Are you building MBP pcbs behind Eurorack?  Any need for power conversion?  I really like your panel graphics.

Yep, stock it's fairly noticable but it's not too bad if you adjust it a little. I ended up with some additional trimpots in case I wanted to tweak it later

Here is what Brian suggested:

I'm really just using the eurorack specifications and hardware to build a pedalboard. The big exception is that I'm using internal jumper connections rather than external patch cables.

For power, I have run it off a one spot and an internal daisy chain cable. I'm currently working on a roadrage board to use on the input/output panel for some additional power filtering and voltage options. I'm also trying to work out a bus system that will work in that tight space rather than using flying wires

I did a couple of other build reports about the case and other modules, more details here:
