I really like this post ... great job - beautiful pics! ) Since the LXR was my first built, too – I can feel how proud you are. Maybe I should've added some pics of the "Köhlbrandbrücke" glowing in the dark, too.
Are there any frosted/clear caps that would fit? All the ones I found are either too short, too long and most are very large diameter. I would love to change just the instrument/mute buttons to frosted ones that could be lit up from the inside by a …
The LXR was the first kit I ever built and it works just fine. So I'm a beginner, too. After joining here I read the term "MI" quite a lot, got curious, "found" the Shruthi and it was the second kit I soldered.
For me, assembling the LXR felt easie…
I'd love to visit and see/hear whats going on there. But I sold my car a few years ago. Train sucks. Anyone from Hamburg going there? I'd pay for the fuel if you'd pick me up.
Eurorack modules can be pretty small though ..?
Yellow Magic is on my wishlist, too. Or the Polivoks. Or both. Maybe a "Little Dieter" also? Just to totally get lost ... I guess starting a modular is like reaching a point of no return. I just recen…
I guess the filesystem somehow got corrupted ... When I removed the card I got "SD card not detected" so I thought the connections were all good. I was still able to read the card on either Mac/Windows, so I just copied all files to a new, freshly f…
I just recently get "SD Card init error" when turning on the LXR and can't load anything from the SD. It's still the same card I used right from the start – an old lady from one of my first digicams, 256 MB only – but it worked well since today. Do …
@dlyline: please note that the hole sizes in the PDF are just estimates ... not 100% correct. But the centers are accurate. Guess thats all that matters ...
If you use the provided button caps those holes should be ~9mm, pots/encoder ~7mm (too big …
I could imagine this should have been cut into a 2x3 and 2x6 header for isp + exp
I see. I was just wondering because it never got mentioned in the assembly instructions. But if you look closely you can spot those on some of the pictures ...
These are the dimensions of the actual cut out frontpanel? I didn't order a case yet, so I cant measure this myself. If I measure the .eps its about 271x143 mm. Scaled proportionally to 273 mm it would be a height of 144 mm so it sadly doesnt match …
I'm thinking about adding a small quickstart flyer to the kit including basic information about updates, SD cards and linkstobuild instruction/manual.
'just' has to be designed first
If you need any help with this just drop me a line ... InDesign…
By the way, my kit included a mysterious male pin header, 2x10. I was wondering if it just got in there accidently or "in weiser Voraussicht" for future expansions ...
the pdf contains two 50mm markings for scale comparison

Wow, I didn't know about that PDF. (sorry "dlyline" - must have overseen this while in a hurry ...) As f…
I see. Didn't know about the pinout. I'm gonna have to find my good old KMS30 then. I put away all my music-stuff about 6 years ago when I was moving ... time to dig it out!
Maybe this is the right place to ask: would it be possible to use one of the Midi jacks as a Din/Sync jack? Since they are already there and maybe someone would love to sync his 202 to the LXR on the fly Just start/stop and clock. Would that be har…
Hi there!
I took my time with the built, but it was my first "selber-löten"-kit ever. Now it's finally running ... success!
(guess I'm hooked now) Thanks again to Julian for helping me out when I was unsure what to do.
