A project log for EFM Synth buildup

I found a bunch of PCBs for a modular synth. But no documentation. Let's get started with some tech archeology.

There are nine 10x7,5 cm and two 7,5x5cm PCBs

  1. WAV1B
  2. VC RADSR
  3. RMP1B
  4. VCF8E
  5. EGLFO1A
  6. VCA6B
  7. VCA5B
  8. LFO5A
  9. 3544 - VCO
  1. 4627 - VCF
  2. 46212 - VCF

Allready found out, that they were made by EFM (ele4music) and designed by a guy named Tom Gamble.

with tons of schematics, BOMs and layouts of those modules. Some things look a bit shady though, BOM has three pots, while the front panel has four, as an example.
