More than you wanted to know about a Eurorack Mult! Why do you need one (or five)?

- So how does one go about spending 18 minutes talking about the simplest synth module? By digging into how the jacks work and how those get wired together to create a mult. By giving a few different possible uses for it. And by building two of them on camera.
Update: As of Sept 14, 2023, the giveaway has closed.
This is my first DIY-themed video and to celebrate I'm going to give away a couple of full kits so you can build your own passive mult. Watch to the end for details!
In the video I suggest this as a possible starter soldering set. To be clear, I haven't tried it, but it gets good reviews and was included on a couple "best to get started" lists. But it's also not even $20, so give it a shot: www.amazon.com/dp/B01712N5C4
To learn more about the specific module I built (and am giving away), check out AI Synthesis: aisynthesis.com/product/multi...
This video wasn't sponsored by them, I just think they're awesome.

I've fallen in love with modular, but i can hardly afford it, so getting into DIY is my only option. And as someone with no experience whatsoever with electrical engineering, I appreciate these videos so much! really awesome to have things explained in such an understandable way.
Exactly the kind of explanations the modular world needs. Well done.
Thanks, I'm really glad they're useful!
Not entering the drawing, just wanted to tell you how awesome that video was. Thanks!
Awesome! Thank you!
I'd be down for that giveaway! Never have too many mults. But you can have too few!
Ok, your name is in the hat!
This channel got me into NLC modules, for which im grateful! Its good to see you creating new stuff!
Please throw my name in that hat 🙂
Added!
Great video! I really recommend dealing with the solder fumes in some way. I had a sore throat and a cough for days once after building a larger project. After that I’ve always had a fan running beside me to blow away most of the fumes, or even wear a respirator for longer sessions. But best would probably be a proper fume extractor. I’ve read the fumes can contribute to one developing asthma if you’re exposed to it repeatedly, so be careful everyone!
I wrote the comment before the end of the video, I wouldn’t mind entering the giveaway!
You're in!
I have made a few hundreds mults for friends and for me, love to make them, I find it relaxing!!!
You can even just get a few cheap 2 hp blank panels, some jacks, wire and your are up to go!!!
That is awesome!
Good tutorial. Thanks for putting it together for us! Welcome back to the tube.
Thanks! There'll be a few more in the DIY series I think, with some more complex modules, and maybe one that requires SMD.
I can't remember what it was I soldered with my dad as a kid, I think it was some kind of illegal flashing light on a Kub Kar? This video brought me right back though, and reminded me I shouldn't be so intimidated by DIY electronics. Please squeeze me into this hat, I want to try!
I'll find room for you in the hat :)
Great to see your doing modular content again. Another great video.
Thanks! Took a while to get back to things, but glad to be doing it.
Great video! As someone with an EE background, I can understand an op amp but for some reason still struggle to get my head around jack sockets - things are much clearer after watching this! Please enter me in the giveaway
Wow, that's really great of you to say - glad I could help :) Your name is in the hat!
Welcome back!!
Thanks! Glad to be back.
Great stuff! Thanks for the video!
Glad you liked it!
Nice introduction vid. No need to put my name in the hat, I've just soldered my own multi just now and I'm quite ok with blundering my way through electronics. 😉
Now busy with designing a small trigger tool. Modular is fun!
A little addictive too. :)
Glad to see you back! Excited to enjoy more of your videos, always a pleasure.
I just got two mults from Andrew with my latest NLC order, so keep me out of the giveaway. Ideally someone just dipping their toes into DIY would get them =)
Oh, I'll have to build some of Andrew's! Clearly I don't have enough... :)
Cool! I'd be happy to have my name in the hat.
Ok, you're in!
Great soldering tutorial
I appreciate that! My first try filming DIY stuff, it turned out...ok. :)
Really enjoy your videos.
I'd like to enter the competition.
Thanks.
You bet, you're in!
Pritty neat video, liked it. Also went to your channel to see od this the only video in regards to the DYI Soldering. Listen why wouldn't you makes us an video explaining how to correctly orient/turn capacitors/diodes/transistors/SMD's/vectrols.. There is no such video on Planet Earth. Everyone creates videos about Soldering, but no one explains how not to screw the DYI build and later when plug it into the Bus, burn it - as a consequence of not positioning module parts having in mind +positive and -negative orientation correctly. Do it (if you know how to explain it, and aware of this predicament) ❤
Definitely aware of it :) The problem is that the person laying out the PCB is just a fallible as the rest of us and I've seen plenty of cases where the marking on the board is wrong (or just missing). But there usually is a hint in the schematic about what to do. I'll have to come up with some examples I can demonstrate.
Thanks!
Subbed! Just discovered your channel today. Awesome content. Silver panel if I’m the lucky one. I’m off to look at diy modules…
Thanks for the sub, consider yourself in the hat!
Congratulations! You were one of the winners of the give-away. I can't find an email for you, but if you go to the info page for my channel, under the "About" tab, you'll get the option to see my email address (after proving you're not a bot). Drop me a line and we'll work things out.
Just found your channel - inspired me to dig out the solder - enter me in the giveaway please!
You're in!
Sign me up for that giveaway! Great vid btw, I'd encourage anyone to give DIY a try
You're in!
That looks neat and doable. I'd love to give that a try. Add me to the give-away, please.
You're in!
Nice video. Makes it seem easy. Add me to the giveaway.
You're in!
Can you like get more popular? Please. I need more content lol
I'm trying! :)
FWIW, I'm working right now on a video tackling oscillator sync -- hoping to get it out in the next week.
