Questions
How big is the Splitter PCB?
It measures 52 × 84.6 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Splitter use?
41 parts. 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 Splitter KiCad files?
From the rabidaudio/effects repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is splitter/splitter/splitter.kicad_pcb and its schematic ab-pedal/ab-pedal.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Splitter design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask rabidaudio before reusing the design.
