Kit Assembly


This kit is rated as easy, takes around 2 hoursto make and is suitable for all ages. The only equipment needed to complete this kit is a soldering iron and a pair of flush cutters. You can add some solder to your kit by selecting it from the drop down menu options.

How It Works


The Baby8 is not an instrument in itself, but a controller of a vast array of other noise making devices with a 0-5V CV input. Examples include our MiniAtari Punk Console, synthesizers, our Drum Synth, effects pedals – the list is endless!

A Helping Hand


All our kits are packaged with a cheat sheet which helps you identify the resistors by the 5 colour bands.We are always available to help with any questions you may have, just get in touch and we’ll respond ASAP

2X FUNCTION OPTIONS

Step Reset Mode

Set the length of your sequence from 1-8 steps in this mode. Simply set the switch after your chosen number of steps to reset and away you go!

Step Skipping Mode

When selected, this mode enables you to set any of the switches (2-8) to ‘skip’ and then continues with the rest of the sequence creating all manner of funky rhythms!

CONNECT TO OUR MINI ATARI PUNK CONSOLE

Add a set of connectors to your kit to bring the Baby8 and mini APC together for all sorts of fun which you can see in the video demo further down the page. The set consists of two strips of pin headers and 5 multi-coloured jumper cables for connecting power sharing, 2x CVs, Gate and Ground.

“Awesome kit, excellent instructions! This was my first real soldering project, and I couldn’t be more pleased with how it turned out. Be sure to order the CV-out pin header option for more fun with external modular toys. I use it with my Bastl Kastle for hours of sound making :-)”

\"One of the easiest and cheapest DIY stepsequencer !
There are few parts (so it takes only a couple hours to build), the assembly guide is very well done, and the square blue leds look nice. It’s great to drive a synth, or nice also to sequence their DIY / WebsiteCustomer
