Prism Circuits - DIY 4U Serge Panel | Modular Synth

I have completed building my first Serge panel from Prism Circuits, a new company that sells PCB's from the Paperface era (circa 1973) of Serge modules.
This video touches on the history of Serge modular synthesizers, and how DIY is a big part of the culture, before delving into my specific build process. I then go through and demonstrate how to use each of the modules in this panel:
5-step programmer
Bi-directional router
Sequential Switch
Noise Source
'73 filter
Gate

Under the Big Tree is Nicolas Peck's KZbin channel, focused on esoteric electronic music, modular and vintage synthesizers, sound design equipment and techniques, and the composition, production and performance of music.

This is fabulous. Skyler from Prism Circuits is a very passionate and dedicated to the art of sound. Thank you for sharing your passion, vision, and information. By the way, All Electronics is a fabulous place to visit. We are lucky these days. Happy New Year

Thank you for bringing to the attention to another source of DIY serge stuff. Loving the new panel you acquired.

[@LoganMannstrane]

Another awesome video. Great work!

[@City2x]

Really love this video, and your channel. Keep up the excellent work!

[@erickt2665]

Thank you so much for this video! I’m totally new to diy and looking to get started

Very insteristing and informative. Now i know Serge systems exist... Always nice to watch a new video on your channel.

[@louhampel3699]

Like most or all Serge jacks, black are bipolar and blue positive only. So the stepped/random generates positive CV from the blue jack and bipolar CV from the black.

omg im LOVE this video you are just awesome thankyou

[@Mattwag666]

Great thank you!!

[@oliverkollar9143]

Great video....not many "tutorials" for the bidirectional router, etc.....🔥🍄🔥 Good stuff!!!!

[@TheMarkmcintyre]

cool panel

[@jessermejia]

Thanks for the great demo! I was surprised to hear that you didn’t have a s&h in such a legendary serge system! no ssg? Does the prism noise you built utilize the SSG circuit like the random source does?

[@virtualcrimes]

WOW! I'm looking into the possibility of making my own panel, how did you space and scale the panel art in photoshop? Do you have any documentation to share in regards to making the panel art and printing? Thanks!

[@leonpijpers7327]

Hi, great video, also looking to symplify these synth circuits, so I can do the same things without special CA3080 or LM13700 ICs, just wondering if these schematics can be found somewhere for personal use.

[@mymodularjourney]

Most circuits are published by Ken Stone (CGS) if you want to diy.

I'm wondering how the the PCBs attach to the panel. Is it just by the resistor legs that connect to the bananas or are there also some screws or similar? Thanks :)

[@paulglass-steel1355]

Been wondering the same. I'm guessing that ones with pots use the pots to hold the PCB in place, as is common in Eurorack. But for ones that are all jacks, like the Programmer output PCB, I have no idea. There are no mounting holes in that PCB as it's depicted on the Prism site. Under the Big Tree - favor us with a tour "under the hood"?

The Mouser situation is really a mess, I have two orders from April 2021 that are still outstanding 11 months later and weren't scheduled to ship until July and November respectively. Three weeks ago I requested that they ship them out without the backordered items and they still haven't.

the switch for your sequential switch is upside down ; ]
