It's a technology transplant kit, which had been assembled anyhow by a french guy. I repaired and modified it. It has almost all the subatomic mods, x0xsh0p delay and double vco. Ba662 and custom chip LEDs. The panel isn't close properly, there must be smaller pots.

Very nice antto!
How did you make the nonx0x-cover? Is this a sticker?

its aluminum, very durable, chemically resistant print. design by antto
I had it manufactured for myself and some friends (we did a small group buy)
I have some leftover panels available if you are interested, and you can get one together with a x0xlarge here (use access code: X0XFORUM)

The youngest with my TB303 in mint condition.(It will soon be black knobs, i haven't yet received)
This TB303 was in the attic of an elderly lady since 1983. :lol:
It belonged to her husband died. :( It almost never used, there was still the roland batteries inside. My wife recovered it for a hundred euros and gave me for my birthday. :D

Recently finished my first xoxbox from Willzyx-I know it's not super fancy-I only changed the rotary dials cos I forgot to trim the pot shafts and the stock knobs sat up too high and looked a bit poxy-I also mounted the LEDS quite high cos I liked the domed jewel look it gives-my knowledge of electronics is seriously laughable so the fact that I was able to build this is a real testament to the design of the kit and instructions-kudos to all involved in making this available to musicians-I love love love this thing! It's my favorite synth! It's sort of like a typewriter for melodies in how it directs focus compared to a DAW-I've just ordered another kit-does anyone know if they can be tuned to become a lead instrument? So covering mid to higher notes as opposed to low to mid notes as it stands?
Cheers
In the background is my spring reverb...xoxbox and spring reverb sounds very nice indeed!

My x0xb0x from willzyx. Took me about 10 hours to build, and both the kit and the instructions were totally awesome.

I created a timelapse video of the build:

My x0xb0x. It took me ages to accept to close it, as I am always thinking what if I could had another mod... But still she is truly at the heart of my setup. Thanx to the adafruit forum and specially Substyller Anto Momrath and Guest for all the documentation they built up over the years.
