1U-RIM

Eurorack 1U rimshot module based on Hexinverter's NeinOhNein Rim (https://static1.squarespace.com/static/54c8f37ae4b015761b133d43/t/550ba520e4b0c15a9e33dd91/1426826530104/?format=1000w)

Status: it worked, but I've redesigned Accent handling. This new PCB is still not tested.

Questions

How big is the 1U Rim PCB?

It measures 56.9 × 28.7 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the 1U Rim use?

77 parts, built around the TL072. 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 1U Rim KiCad files?

From the kraakenstuff/1U-Rim repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is 1U Rim.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the 1U Rim design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask kraakenstuff before reusing the design.
