ModulinTest is an open-source printed circuit board by ConDarth, from the ConDarth/modulin repository on GitHub. It is a 2-layer board of 74.9 × 62.2 mm with 27 parts on 71 nets, routed with 13 tracks and 2 vias.
It is built around the TL072 and BC548. Its parts include 6 resistors, 5 diodes, 3 capacitors, 3 ICs and 2 connectors.
This repository holds all data for th modulin I am building. The concept behind this design is to make a fully analog synthesizer using only standard components, with a fun control system based on a violin. This project is mostly based on a design Martin Molin of Wintergatan. An explanation of his design can be found here.
My goal in improving this design is to make it more accessible. His design uses 9 or so prebuilt modules meant for modular synthesizers, each of which costs in the range of 70$+ making the instrument quite expensive for a diy build. I took inspiration from the modular synth DIY community to instead try and build the necessary modules from scratch using only much cheaper standard electronics components. The components I am limiting myself to are resistors, capacitors, inductors/transformers, diodes, transistors (both BJT and FET), op amps and linear voltage regulators.

The 23 most common of 27 parts.
It measures 74.9 × 62.2 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
27 parts, built around the TL072 and BC548. 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.
From the ConDarth/modulin repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is modulinTest/modulinTest.kicad_pcb and its schematic modulinAmplifier/modulinAmplifier.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask ConDarth before reusing the design.
