after the RE-303, RE-606, RE-909 we have the RE-808 replica to build.

its an replica, which means 99.9% of everything is a replica - the pcbs, the case, the parts.

the only difference are replacement tactile switch of the sequencer.

but you can repair your TR-808 with the RE-808 parts.

Infos and groups:

PCBs and some parts are available from the RE-303 shop

Cases and side panels are available from Kumptronics

Start/Stop cover and Tap cover of the switches are available from few Facebook users for now, maybe available later thru other suppliers.

Spacers (not in the BOM - but maybe supplied with the RE-808 case)

ID	Issue	Fix	date
1	CPU mounting	As you can see you also need to do a jumper wire between the solder point marked A on the pixie cpu and pin 10 (!WE pin) of any of IC 7,8,9 or 10 (they’re all connected to the same signal) Please note: * This is on the back of the 808 * you solder the pins on the cpu on the “wrong“ side * the jumper wire can be soldered directly as it’s just one wire, I use a pin header and patch cable here mainly during development as I can easily remove the cpu without having to desolder anything * as the cpu is upside down, make sure you connect the midi wires the correct way! * as always - pin 1 and 42 is unused and can be left unconnected (pin 1 is the hole with a square pad)	01/2022
2	PSU	Do not fit the DC jack on the PSU circuit board. Its not used and it is not wired correctly. use a cable for the jack as shown for example	01/2022
