About the Braids through hole V1.1 CONTROL PCB
Braids through hole V1.1 CONTROL is an open source PCB design by sebastianbeyer, published on GitHub. It is a board measuring 87 × 96 mm, with 45 components from 13 distinct parts.
Other key parts include the 74HC595N and LM4040-10.0. By type, the board carries 31 resistors, 4 transistors, 4 capacitors, 3 ICs and 1 switch.
From the project
This is a KOSMO (Look Mum No Computer) version of the Mutable instruments braids, based on the through-hole version done by sound-force.nl. It has only 12 bits resolution in the output because the chip is easier to work with and cheaper.

This project is so far only different to the soundforce version in that I removed the 3.5mm jack sockets and replaced them with molex connectors to get them connected to the larger 6.3mm jack sockets that KOSMO uses. And I made the larger KOSMO panel.
