You got this! Slow and steady.

I feel like a lazy DIYer because Iām waiting for someone else to post a Mouser cart. Iāve been busy with work stuff and havenāt spent the time to make my own. BAD SYNTHESIST, BAD!
If I get to it first, Iāll post it for any other reprobates.
Cheers yāall, and thanks Fox!

I feel your pain.
Sometimes itās difficult to share a Mouser cart. My next order will be for 7 modules. There will be a lot of cart optimisation (buying extras to hit price breaks) that will only make sense if you are building the same stuff as me. I also already have some of the components, so they wonāt be in the cart.

I just noticed that it says:
- CH A. & CH. B inputs: +5v/-12v tolerant
Does that mean that it can be damaged if more than +5V goes in to an input?
My system is a mixed audio and video system. I often send outputs from things like Maths directly in to it. Is this likely to be a problem?

CD4053 has limited max supply voltage (20V p-p I think) so probably being run off -12V and +5V rails (via 7805). > Vcc will eventually hurt the CD4053. Quick and easy fix would be a diode to +5 to drain away higher voltages excursions though.

happy to build a few of everything to keep on hand and i donāt mind shipping internationally. will be in touch soon about an order

Yes, sending signals beyond those limits is outside of the CD4053ās absolute maximium ratings. The other inputs are protected, but the idea of the modules is just to switch luma signals. A Cadet V or similar scaler would be rerecommended for your system.
Iāll add an addition to the build guide for DIYāers who want to modify their modules.

I have more diodes on the way, so the pre-built modules will be modified for full rail-to-rail protection on all inputs.

I read above and my question was already answered.
the pcb set just came in !

All modules built and extra diodes installed. Modules will be tested and shipped very soon.
I also did my best to add it to ModularGrid: Other/unknown SHUTTER - Eurorack Module on ModularGrid

If more orders open up, Iād be thrilled to order a built module. DIY could also work if thatās all that would be available. This looks so fantastic! Thanks for creating it!

These look beautiful

Modules look amazing, looking forward to the next run of PCBs to build myself one!

All built modules will be shipping tomorrow morning.
More PCBs are also on the way for anyone who messaged me too late.

Hey @Mattzog & for everyone else as well, this is my own BOM, it should be fine. If you import it into Mouser, Iām sure the Stackable Headers will cause issues because I hardwired the URLs to Tayda in there, maybe take them out and save a 2nd copy, use that with the Mouser BOM tool.
For feck sake, I canāt upload a non image file 
OK, after about an hour of fucking about, this should be it.

I couldnāt add the regular 40pin 1row header so hereās the Mouser Product Nr.: 571-4-103327-9
I compared the lenghts to headers Iāve hear and it seems correct but donāt hold me to it.
Also the tall (arduino style) stackable headers are a ripoff at Mouser so here is the Tayda links:
Donāt be tempted by the Right-Angled 10pin box header, itās the wrong way around

Attention: DIY boards are back in stock for SHUTTER as well as my buffered Mults.
PM me for details. Iāll PM the folks who messaged me too late.
You can make it work if you solder it to the bottom of the board instead of the top. This will make the module deeper but it will work.
Thanks Robin!
If you can still edit the cart, I have a few suggestions:
- 100nF caps are 5.08mm spacing (not 2.5mm) or use Tayda below.
- I recommend 1/4watt for all of the resistors. Mouser has been out of 1/4watt 499R for months now.
- Remove the duplicates from Tayda (10-pin shrouded, stackable headers)
Most of the parts can be found at Tayda for cheaper in smaller quantities, so I also would like to suggest getting these from Tayda:
1K, 20K, 100K Resistors
TL072
CD4053
7805
1N4001
10uF electrolytic
100nF
330nF
6 pin stackable header
8 pin stackable header
10-pin Shrouded
I do not recommend PJ302M jacks from Tayda.

Hi Fox,
I LOVE Shutter. Are there any assembled units still available? Iām so impressed by your work.
