Product information "Erica Synths - EDU DIY Labor"
Get started in circuit design with MKI x ES Labor. Developed in collaboration with Dr. Shalom D. Ruben teaching professor for engineering at the University of Colorado Labor is a fully-featured circuit design playground and a powerful electronics learning tool all in one. Created with the aim of serving as a universal learning tool for electronics engineering Labor enables users to delve into various aspects of electronics design from fundamental concepts to advanced techniques. Whether you're a beginner exploring the basics or an experienced engineer honing your skills Labor provides a versatile platform for experimentation and learning. Create your own filters oscillators envelopes sequencers – and whatever else you can come up with. Or use it to learn the basics by following along with our series of educational DIY kits.
Features:
• a built in dual power supply producing eurorack-compatible voltages, with built-in over current protection for safe experimenting
• a modular interfacing section with 16 slots for potentiometers, jacks & switches
• a pulse/triangle/sine oscillator (audio & LFO range)
• a multi mode envelope generator controlled by a premium push button
• a buffered variable control voltage source
• an output amplifier with variable gain
• a dedicated headphone output and a line-level output for recording, processing and analyzing the signal
• an expansion slot for installing specialized prototyping tools
• a protective lid to cover a breadboard.
EDU DIY Labor Full Kit includes:
• LABOR
• Power Supply Unit
• jumper cables
• array of interfacing elements like potentiometers, jack sockets, switches
• commonly used components (resistors, capacitors, chips, transistors) to start building circuits straight away
NB! LABOR is a testing ground for experiments with electronic circuits and we as a manufacturer cannot by any means diagnose any issues with circuits designed on the LABOR board. We will only respond to support tickets regarding obvious malfunctions of the factory-soldered circuits on the main LABOR board. For other cases of malfunction – please consult other LABOR users/ experienced DIY kit builders on online forums, such as this one. Keep experimenting – keep trying!
