1 How to build a Zynthian (Prototype-3)

Manual is currently in development! (20150406)

1.1 Prerequireries

Want to join the Zynthian community? No problem! Build your own one is not very difficult.

1.1.1 Needed competences

For building the hardware you should have the following competences:

1.2 Hardware

1.2.1 Bill of Material

Here is a list of hardware you need. I have noticed also where I bought the hardware and the price. This items are bought in February 2016 in Germany, so all descriptions are in german and prices are in EUR. If you live in other countries there maybe are better sources of supply for you in your home country.
