Important Information

Thank you for your purchase of the Delptronics ThunderBell Eurorack Module Kit!

Before you start, please read the Electronic Kit Soldering Tutorial. It contains important and useful information even

for experienced kit builders. If this is your first electronic kit, the best piece of advice we can give is to take your time

and be careful to put the right part in the right place. The tutorial can be downloaded from:

http://delptronics.com/documents/SolderingTutorial.pdf

In the instructions that follow, each part type is followed by the PCB outline for that part. Refer to the enclosed

photograph of the completed kit for assistance with part identification and placement.

The PCB is marked with the refdes (reference designator) of each part, not its value. For example R1 refers to

resistor number one and C1 refers to capacitor number one. Once the part value is identified, it is easy to find the

refdes on the PCB.

Some parts must be oriented in a particular way, that is, the correct lead goes in the appropriate hole in the PCB. For

example, electrolytic capacitors are polarized (they have a positive lead and a negative lead). Ceramic capacitors are

not polarized, so it does not matter which of the two leads goes in which of the two holes. In these instructions, the

symbol (±) highlights parts that must be inserted with a particular orientation.

When you are ready to begin, separate the parts by type. Then, when you are ready to solder parts of a particular

type, separate them by value. Compare your parts to the bill of materials, which can be found on the last page of this

document. Make sure no parts are missing. These instructions list the parts in the recommended order of assembly.

In general, the order is shortest to tallest.

This manual is separated into two sections: board-mounted parts, which are soldered directly to the PCB, and off-

board parts which are connected to the PCB via wires.

Using the ThunderBell Module

Trigger Button: Press the button to make the bell sound.

Pitch Knob: controls the pitch of the bell.

Decay Knob: controls how long it takes for the bell’s volume to decay from its maximum level down to silence. The

bell can be re-triggered even while the last bell sound is still decaying.

Pitch CV Jack: allows you to control the pitch of the bell with an external control voltage. It accepts 0V to 5V, but has

over-voltage protection. The pitch is determined by the sum of the voltage in the jack and the pitch knob, so the knob

still works when a plug is inserted into the jack.

Decay CV Jack: allows you to control the decay of the bell with an external control voltage. It accepts 0V to 5V, but

has over-voltage protection. The decay is determined by the sum of the voltage in the jack and the pitch knob, so the

knob still works when a plug is inserted into the jack.

Trigger Jack: allows you to trigger the bell sound using an analog trigger or gate signal. It accepts a 2.5 to 15 volt

signal. The trigger button can still be used even when a plug is inserted into the Trigger Jack.

Output Jack: is where the sound comes out. The output signal is about 9V peak-to-peak.
