Questions

How big is the Drumbox PCB?

It measures 172.5 × 128.5 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Drumbox use?

159 parts, built around the CD4011 and L7805. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.

Where can I download the Drumbox KiCad files?

From the BleepSound/drumbox repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is kicad-global/Drumbox.kicad_pcb and its schematic kicad-global/Drumbox.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Drumbox design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the CC-BY-SA-4.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
