I love living in the time we live in!
This is a 2in x 12out, or stereo 1x6, line level volume control and entertainment center controller.
It can be controlled by either an RS232 input, a serial touchpad or IR. It not only controls volume levels but it has IR LED outputs to control other devices as well.
How much fun is this?!?

    Yes, it is an interesting time for designers and creative people of all types. You don't even need to live near major populations centers anymore to get 2 day delivery of high technology, interact with all sorts of like-minded people and not feel lost in the wilderness (even when you physically are). You can publish books and make websites that communicate with a large part of the industrial world all from the comfort of your coffee house, tree house, penthouse, yurt, tipi or tent. Yet I still wonder if it will help unite the world or work to accentuate the gap between the haves and the have nots, not to mention the cultural gap between those "in the know" and those who are not so bright and yet glued to cable news.

    Great work. Nifty little board and very neat soldering.

    you are braver then me. No solder mask.

    When I lived in Calgary I could get prototypes back in 1 day if I was that brave. 2 with solder mask. I miss those days.

    Some day I will buy a laser cutter and go back to making my own protoypes

    I'm curious, too. Can you post a schematic?

    mctrivia Can I ask you is a laser cutter anywhere near the price a hobbyist could afford nowadays?

    Depends on how serious of a hoby. Saw one for $3000 which got me considering it.
