VCMC v1.1 - ASSEMBLY GUIDE Rev Jan 2021
THANKS FOR CHOOSING ONE OF OUR KITS!
This assembly guide is a bit different from the other Befaco ones. We will be assembling sections, and testing them one
by one, so we will not keep building until we make sure it is working nicely.
This will make our build a bit slower and careful, as this is
quite a tricky build.
Some steps are not obvious, so even if you're an experienced DIYer, please take the time to read the steps thoroughly
before starting.
If this is your first project, please read this article before you start assembling the kit:
VCMC can be assembled as an Standalone unit. During the build we will point out the components you might
change. Check page 2 for details on this Modification from Eurorack version.

DIODES
Solder the diodes
observing their polarity
. The black or white line on the diode must match with the white line on
the diode symbol on the PCB silkscreen.

FERRITES
Solder the two ferrite beads by using a recycled diode leg passed through each ferrite and proceed as if it were a
resistor. Ferrite beads don't have polarity.
