Questions

How big is the Preamp PCB?

It measures 203.2 × 135.9 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Preamp use?

75 parts, built around the ATMEGA8A-PU, DS1307+, LM7805 and LM7809CT. 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 Preamp KiCad files?

From the oco2000/AVRForth repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is examples/preamp/cad/preamp.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Preamp design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the GPL-3.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
