So, to build a basic MIDIbox SEQ V4, you will need: | So, to build a basic MIDIbox SEQ V4, you will need: |
* Either a CORE_STM32F4 or a CORE_LPC17 PCB; | * Either a CORE_STM32F4 (with MIDI I/O board) or a CORE_LPC17 PCB; |
* Wilba's Frontpanel PCB; | * Wilba's Frontpanel PCB; |
* Two 40x2 LCD displays; | * Two 40x2 LCD displays; |
If you're using Wilba's Frontpanel or some custom layout, the SEQ won't work if you don't put a hardware configuration file on the SD Card that assigns the buttons and LEDs. You'll need to put this [[http://svnmios.midibox.org/filedetails.php?repname=svn.mios32&path=%2Ftrunk%2Fapps%2Fsequencers%2Fmidibox_seq_v4%2Fhwcfg%2Fwilba%2FMBSEQ_HW.V4|MBSEQ_HW.V4]] file in the root of the SD Card. If you're using a custom frontpanel, you'll have to write a custom MBSEQ_HW.V4 file, but if you look at the file linked above, you'll see it's pretty well commented. If you're building your own frontpanel, you'll probably be able to figure out the config file. | If you're using Wilba's Frontpanel or some custom layout, the SEQ won't work if you don't put a hardware configuration file on the SD Card that assigns the buttons and LEDs.

| ===Flashing Firmware=== |
You'll have to flash the [[http://www.ucapps.de/index.html?page=mios32_download.html|MIOS32 (MIDIbox Operating System)]] firmware to your Core. Download the latest [[http://ucapps.de/mios32_download.html|SEQ V4 firmware]]. Choose the right version for your MIDIbox Core. Unzip the firmware, and upload the project.hex file from the zip to your SEQ using [[http://ucapps.de/mios_studio.html|MIOS Studio]]. | You'll have to flash the [[http://www.ucapps.de/index.html?page=mios32_download.html|MIOS32 (MIDIbox Operating System)]] firmware to your Core.
