Known Issues and Building tipps for yocto 808 Clone Batch2 - January 2014 pcb version
Failure in Cymbal Build Instruction before 11.02.2014
(copy von e-licktronic forum)
A customers found a mistake on the schematic.
R108* and R111* in the Cymbal section are switched.
The right value of R108* is 22K and R111* is 18K.
(the building instruction was updated to correct value on 10.2/11.2.2014)
R44 from 100k to 50k otherwise a 100k Trimmer to change the„tuning range“ for TM1 
validation July2014
Chassis
unscrew the nuts from all pots/encoder or the board bends.
if needed use washers together with spacers
Custom Rearpanel:
i´m planning for a second yocto a rearpanel with powerswitch.
in the EPS file i removed the square hole for the powerconnection, i have to connect from the pcb the gnd cable to the switch, see here - same is in the LXR Drumsynth modification.
here is the modificated EPS file.

Custom LOGO:
added a "Rhythm Composer YOCTO at the Frontpanel
and removed the powersupply square cutting at the rearpanel (see custom rearpanel info above)

Noise section:
Measurement AC !!
Adjust the TM4 trimmer for 130mV on pin 1 of 4558.
its important to use a good DMM (multimeter), most cheap DMM have in AC voltage measurement with 3digits high failure rates and cant display 160mV - shows only 0,01.
i highly recommend a 4,5digits or better DMM with 0,1% tolerance
i have at least 250mV so changing R127 to 47K ...

This was a little tricky to figure out:
clap reverb mod -
replace r376 (47k) with 100k trimpot
This will vary the reverb between full and completely off.
C144 must have the correct polarity.. neg to gnd
you have to trim TM3 to get a handclap sound of your choice
Cowbell
Range: replace R44 to a 50k trimmer
adjiust the trimmer on left hand - after a bleedthru you must trim one trimmer a bit more to get a cowbell.
you can doublecheck them by using a scope

Low Noise Ratio (SNR) for Mastersection
http://www.e-licktronic.com/en/content/39-master
change in the Mastersection all carbonfilm resistors to Metallfilm resistors and change all cheap electrolyt caps to LOW ESR caps..
change the ceramic cap (220p) to a c0g capaciator

Noise Reducing SNR/NOISE RATIO generell
in many Voices/sections you can find at the output amps a resistor, to reduce the noise ratio you can change this resistor to a metallfilm resistor and the electrolyt caps to a better low ESR Cap.

metallfilm resistors don´t included there due to full homestock..
