OK, guys, just for grins, I snarfed the parts list out of the x0xi0 install document and put it into html format. I always like to have paper copies of parts lists on my work bench so that I can check things off as I go. It also gives me a great place to scribble notes! You can get a copy at:
http://www.analognotes.com/x0xb0x/x0xi0/parts.html
It prints out on two pages for me using Firefox on my Macbook. You may have to tweak the number of "<br>" tags to get it to print properly...

thanks everyone for your feedback so far. As you have figured out by now I'm a perfectionist and I wanted to wait until everything was perfect before shipping Part 1 of the kit. Please post any feedback, pics or any other comments on the kit as you install it and use it. I have now shipped 25 kits and have reached the quota to pay off all the development and parts costs for 50 kits so I am very happy with the response so far. If you have ordered a kit and haven't heard back from me yet (there are 7 of you as of July 17) I will be shipping your kit on Monday and will reply with appropriate tracking or shipping info.
I hope all of you find the I/O & overdrive kit a great addition to your setup. I am an engineer but just as much a musician as well and wanted to deliver something that would be useful to your setup.
I have enormous respect for Limor & her team for developing the x0xb0x. It is a huge accomplishment to develope a true TB-303 clone in such a short time period as she did; and then to continue to deliver on more than 800 kits is unbelievable. Cult status My mods originally started as a major modification for the TB-303 back in 2006 until I diverted my attention to the x0xb0x. Packing so much power into such a small package has kept me motivated for over a year!

Definitely seconded!Doug Wellington wrote:I'm impressed Brian! I like how you packaged everything up. Most other kits I've bought have had one big bag for all resistors and caps - it's so much easier for me the way you did it.
Kit arrived today, time to restart work on the self-sourced x0x I think...

OK, guys, I've started documenting my x0xi0 assembly process...
Brian updated the install docs to version 1.01, but being the picky guy I am I went a step further and changed the page breaks and did some minor reformatting. I'm calling it version 1.02. You can find html and pdf versions on my web site at:
http://www.analognotes.com/x0xb0x/x0xi0/
The pdf is just printed directly from Word, so it's HUGE - 100 MB (I need to get some kind of pdf compression tool. Sorry...) but I think it prints better than any other version. On the other hand, the html version is the easiest to deal with online.
Hopefully I didn't mess Brian's documentation up - let me know if you find errors...

please note that I have found an error in the Install Manual Rev1.01.
Installation Step 14 show the wire connected to the wrong side of R60
The sympton would be a non-working slide in circuit.
I will update the install manual as soon as possible. I will also include a revision history so in the future everyone can see what has changed.
I will also be emailing everyone that has purchased a kit as of today.

that's a problem. Should settle immediately, few mS at worst.Takes a few mins to reach, but appears to stay there
that's not good. There's should be any change in VCO waveforms. Is it noise or does the basic VCO waveform sound different?Just a bit of harmonics in the sawtooth that wasn't there before
yeah it worked out pretty good. It's definitely a tight fit and won't rattle.That back panel is a tight squeeze in that slot!
we'll get it sorted one step at a time

I just uploaded my parts cross reference for the x0xi0 mod. You can get it at:
http://www.analognotes.com/x0xb0x/x0xi0
I find it easier to have things indexed by the silkscreen label rather than the part value. (I also included the resistor color bands to make it even easier.)
Let me know if I messed anything up...

I haven't made progerss lately because of other priorities. I keep pushing it back but I hope to finish it in 3 months. However, depending on how everything is going with my work schedule it could get pushed back further, so I wouldn't want to have someone hold up the build of a x0xb0x longer than they have to. I do it in my free time. I would be happy if I finished it at the end of October, although it's certainly possible it could get pushed back more towards the end of the year.
