Helder, correct me if I'm wrong. But someone that has a completed operational build (GBZ) to immediately test the board, and enough knowledge to trouble shoot the two systems to find, fix, and improve flaws in the board.
Correct I need someone with a partially or complete build that can program the board (should be simple with Arduino IDE and a USB Cable) and has PWM audio setup to test controls as well as the audio output with the Volume wheel which again should work. The design for audio is based off of other member's builds and tests, and like I said a few posts above that this will likely get a revision with a much needed feature but only once the testers have put it through it's paces.

I would like to try this! Looks perfect!

If you could spare a pcb only or even just the Gerber files, I can build it in a day or two ( I have a good soldering guy for this job).

Thanks

I'll have a few spare blanks after assembling the 5 I can sell off but you need to get your own parts.

Yes, just the pcb, no parts. I have all the parts already from other projects.

I'm in USA, San Diego California.

I'll contact you once I have the boards, and this version is already obsolete anyways so no biggie as I've started on a newer version with the extra feature that will make the build much easier but testing is still needed on this board before moving into an order on the next version.

The built in button hole drill template is genius.

So like I mentioned above that version is already obsolete and I have a new one all done up, I won't be ordering it anytime soon till the one before it arrives and gets tested out. So the new version has a built in USB Hub with 4 connections (1 is already wired to the atmega) with 3 available to wire to whatever you want. Don't ask for prices as I've not looked at the overall cost of parts yet, also there will be another test phase for this version so some lucky testers will get one before everyone else when I decide to send out for testing.
