Befaco is an Eurorack manufacturer that also offers DIY kits, organizes workshops and releases their designs under Creative Commons license.
In February 2010 Befaco was created as an open hardware platform focusing on professional DIY musical hardware, materializing the previous electronic, musical and artistic research of its members.
Our main activity has been developing synthesizer modules in eurorack
format and making them available in workshops. All this research is
published under CC-NC-SA License, so people can download the schematics,
and technical assembly guides, to make their own variations of the
projects for personal and educative purposes. Also build all our designs
during our regular workshops in cities as Barcelona, Madrid, London or
Berlin.
During the past twelve years, apart of these regular four
cities, we have visited cities as Tokyo, Kyoto, Toronto, Montreal,
Chicago, Frankfurt, Helsinki, Lyon, Stuttgart and Amsterdam, amongst
many other European cities.
These workshops are a huge test playground where we can track each module being built by different worldwide users, get direct feedback and quickly improve them with, develop new ones, or adapt these instruments to users demands constantly.
Direct contact with DIY enthusiasts allows an implication of users in the structure, allowing them to design their own modules and develop them in a professional way. This has developed into an incubation environment for several new modular initiatives, allowing different makers to start their own similar projects.
Befaco initiative is possible thanks to the support of Hangar, an artistic production centre in Barcelona, Barcelona city hall and the titanic work by the whole Befaco team.

Product Safety Information
Please read this safety guide before installation or use.
Intended Use
• Audio cables are designed solely for the transmission of audio signals and should be used according to their technical specifications.
• Use outside the recommended applications (e.g., for electrical loads or non-audio signals) may result in damage to equipment or injury.
Installation and Use
Connection and Disconnection:
• Do not pull the cable by its wire; always pull it by the connector to avoid damage to the connection.
• Ensure all connectors are clean and dry before connecting the cable.
Safe Use:
• Arrange cables to avoid tripping hazards, especially in areas with pedestrian traffic.
• Prevent cables from being pinched or cut, such as by doors or sharp edges.
Observe Load Limits:
• Do not exceed the load limits of the cable based on its length and quality to prevent signal loss or damage.
• Avoid tensioning the cable, particularly during mobile use.
Protection from Environmental Factors:
• Do not use audio cables in extremely humid, hot, or cold environments unless they are designed for such conditions.
• Store cables in a dry and clean location when not in use.
Compatibility
• Ensure the audio cable is compatible with the equipment in use (e.g., amplifiers, instruments, microphones). Use the recommended connector types (e.g., XLR, TRS, RCA).
• Cables with insufficient shielding can cause interference and signal loss.
Warning Notices
• Tripping and Falling Hazard: Improperly placed cables can be a tripping hazard and cause injury.
• Electric Shock Hazard: Damaged cables, especially those with exposed wires, can cause electric shock.
• Fire Hazard: Do not use damaged cables. Short circuits or overheating may lead to fire.
• Risk from Improper Use: Improper handling can cause damage to connected devices, such as signal interference or overvoltage.
