Analog Metropolis: Analog Modular Synthesizer Kits
The modules are fully tested and have an initial trimmer setting. The kit excludes any front panel
mounted hardware such as potentiometers, switches and jack sockets, as customers usually like to use there own. The wiring needed for attaching pots and switches and jacks is NOT included but pot brackets are included to
enable the PCB to be mounted to a front panel using 1/4" or 1/8" shaft Spectrol pots. Lead time is typically 5 - 6 weeks depending on how many modules I am building for customers. Customers have bought these PCB's to fit into their own
synthesizer system as well as Roland 100M/Serge system/etc....

Introduction
A small but growing range of PCB's for "retro" analog synthesizer modules are now available from Analog Metropolis. These modules are all classic powerful designs from the 1970's, including E-mu
Systems, ARP, SCI. They are designed to be used in modern analog modular synthesizer systems. The PCB's can be easily mounted to a front panel using pot brackets (spaced at 40mm), or holes can be drilled
in the PCB to use PCB spacers. The PCB's uses the MOTM standard 4-pin Molex power connector. The PCB's are suited to Synth DIYers with some experience of electronics and building modules. I don't
recommend bare or populated PCB's for people who have no soldering or electronics experience...
Bare PCB This is exactly what you would expect. A newly manufactured double sided PCB with
solder mask and component lettering with no components fitted. PCB's are typically 80x100mm or 100x125mm in size. You will need to find and buy all the components to build the module, they are
listed in the Project Notes which can be downloaded from this web site. I may be able to help with some of the hard to find components such as Tempco resistors and rare semiconductors, which I have specially manufactured for me.
