Maplin 8 way MIDI "THRU" box ---------------------------- The following scans are taken from "Electronics -the Maplin magazine" issue 34 (Oct.-Nov. 1989) and describes how to build an 8 way MIDI THRU box. The circuit boards could be bought from Maplin (http://www.maplin.co.uk) at the time, but I'm not sure if they're available any longer. Luckily the PCB layout is shown in the magazine, and I've scanned it here at 300 DPI grayscale as well as spending some time touching it up. Hopefully it'll be usable for making a usable circuit board. The other scans are 100 DPI grayscale and should be well readable on your computer. In addition I've scanned the component placement illustration and the circuit schematics at a higher resolution and re-written some of the components as they came out too dark in the scan, so there should be no reason for any misplaced components! Good luck! Hallvard Tangeraas, 7-December 2001 Updated 12-December-2001
