Daughterboard Heights

Part Orientations

  • For pots with built-in pointers, pot pins go down for pointer to go up at center point

Front Panel Jacks

Eurorack Vertical Pots

Op Amps

  • From this site
    • The TL084 Op-Amp is very similar to TL074 but has high noise immunity and better offset characteristics.
    • The TL074 has lower noise figure, so is better for AC signals.
    • The TL084 has lower offset, so is better for DC signals.
    • The TL084 has better DC performance (low offset) and the TL074 has better noise/distortion performance.
    • You can use TL074s on the audio paths, TL084s on the control paths.
    • TL074 Datasheet
    • TL084 Datasheet
  • The TL074 is $0.75 in qty 10 (on Mouser)
  • The TL084 is $0.55 in qty 10 (on Mouser)
  • The TL072 and TL082 are both about the same price as each other, but are more expensive than the quad parts
