It's alive! (Obligatory Mad Scientist Riff)

Posted by TheProf in TheProf's Blog, 16 May 2013 - - - - - - · 45 views

The missing socket arrived this morning. Full of will power I waited until after the days work was done before getting out the now rapidly declining box of bits. Socket in, C64 PSU tested, 9V tested good, so was ready to go. Small glitch until I realised that I had to change the core ID in MIOS Studio too, then all loaded smoothly. Fitted the 6852's one p...

Midi & Ecran tactile Bonjour,Je me présente, je suis Nicolás, guitariste acoustique et passionné par les possibilités du MIDI depuis mon plus jeune age, même si j'ai découvert plus tard que je ne pouvais pas brancher mon joystick sur le synthétiseur de papa  :smile:Je me pose actuellement quelques questions concernant la gestion d'appareils midi depuis un écran tactile, et j'...

How to Offset and Scale an Analog Input

Posted by Duggle in Duggle's Blog, 06 May 2013 - - - - - - · 305 views

When interfacing a Joystick, Modwheel or Pitchbender it is sometimes found that the voltage range on the potentiometer output is well inside   the range of the Core ADC input.This can often be overcome with digital calibration in the firmware (e.g MIDIbox KB) in some cases there is extreme loss of resolution.Presented here is a circuit to overcome this to...

Now witness the firepower of this fully ARMED and OPERATIONAL battle station!

Posted by Blatboy in Blatboy's Blog, 02 March 2013 - - - - - - · 765 views

Now witness the firepower of this fully ARMED and OPERATIONAL battle station! It's been a while since I've been able to work on any electronics projects, and while I've been using my MB-6582 in the studio at work , I've been so slammed that I I've not been able to finish my last touches. (Filter pots, mix out, power LED... stuff like that)Starting next Tuesday, I'll have at least one recording session every week in my studio until...

I`m back

Posted by Sasha in Sasha's Blog, 27 December 2012 - - - - - - · 345 views

I`m back after long time out of MB community and doing electronics in general. I have quite a few unfinished projects that needs some attention. In most cases it is just building housings and final touches, but still a lot of work. I feel bit rusty now, but I`ll catch what I`ve missed. See you around! ;)

Where has “nebula” been?

Posted by nebula in nebula's Blog, 25 November 2012 - - - - - - · 244 views

MIDIbox has been a big deal to me, for a long time.  While I’ve built a few MIDIbox projects over the years, I always wanted to be a bigger contributor, and there has always been something in my life to stop me.Over the past few years my marriage has taken a big shit all over my life.  I find myself with great ideas, only unable to fully realize them beca...

Introduction

Hi everyone!It's my first entry on my first blog!I'm "working" in midibox for about 10years now. I found ucapps.de website when I was looking for a way to build a midicontroller (I have tried before, using some 80C51, or thinking about other crappy design). I was a student at time and I was dreaming about building a custom midicont...

Membrane Pots

Posted by geth in geth's-building-stuff-Blog, 01 June 2012 - - - - - - · 53 views

Hi!Today I got my membrane-Potentiometers (100mm-Hotpot) from Watterott. I had to wire a 10k resitor to between the "wiper" and ground. If this is not done, when the membrane is not touched it, and therefore the AD-converter-input, doesn't have any scecified contact with ground or 3.3V so it will send random signals, which cannot be filter...

9090

OK, so it isn't a MIDIbox yet, but I intend to add a Jef's sequencer so that it becomes an MB-9090. I pretty much forgot to take any photos during the build as I was too busy soldering. Here are a few pictures of the finished PCBs and their [s]wonderful  hideous cardboard base and panel. I intend to design a desktop case for it once I have the seq...

Modular mania

Posted by jojjelito in olga42's Blog, 21 November 2011 - - - - - - · 68 views

Finally mounted all the PCBs on one of the 2 more or less identical modulars we're building over at the labs. I made some 2cm (0.787 inches if you prefer mongoloid units of measurement) thick strips of brass. Those were perforated with a 10mm hole so that they can sit between the pots and the front panel, then I added a small hole for the M3 screw tha...

808Micro - Control Surface

Posted by Digineural in Digineural's Blog, 17 February 2011 - - - - - - · 249 views

In general I don't recommend starting any project with an enclosure that is smaller than what you can fit a proto version of your project in.  But my enclosure supply just about gone, so I'll use what I have.  The tekbox  from TEKO enclosures.  (NOTE: If for some insane reason you decide to emulate this work in progress, buy a tekmar case. It'...
