Oops, I mean the files for the single board with 8 OLEDs. And yes, the manufacturer would solder the OLED's on. It's a turnkey shop that could do all or a portion of the manufacturing.

FantomXR - Are you willing to share the sch/brd files for the 1 piece board? I'd like to see about getting a quote on that through my network.

Bringing this thread back because I'm interested in a PCB like this. AND... I might be in a position to have some made, including SMT components and LCD's soldered on (or maybe connected with flex sockets). My father has been in the electronics manufacturing industry for 30+ years and I'll be visiting him in the next few weeks. I'm going to discuss what it would cost to manufacture something like this in California. Depending on the result of that discussion and if there's enough interest I may be able to do a group order. Hey FantomXR, how close did you get with your design? I'm curious what issues you ran into and why you opted for the breakout board solution?

Still struggling with this... anyone have some advice for me?

So I got around to testing this out... wired up as I explained above, using the following in my NGC file: DIN_MATRIX n=1 rows=8 inverted_sel=1 sr_dout_sel1=1 sr_din1=1 DOUT_MATRIX n=1 rows=8 inverted_sel=1 sr_dout_sel1=1 sr_dout_r1=2 EVENT_BUTTON_MATRIX id=1 fwd_id=LED_MATRIX:1 type=NoteOn key=36 lcd_pos=1:1:2 label="Matrix1 Pin %2p %b" So with this code (for testing only) I noticed that when i push a button, the button's LED lights fully (as expected) but the LED in the same column, but one row above also lights faintly. i've double checked all my wiring and can't find anything wrong. My SEQ_V4L always worked perfectly so I feel confident in my soldering, but... Any suggestions on what to test?

Hey guys - I'm looking at repurposing my V4L board as a plain old button/led matrix and wanted to double check with you folks before I break something. After studying the schematic (http://www.ucapps.de/midibox_seq/mbseq_lite_blm.pdf) it seems like I should be able to make some custom cables to connect this to a DIO_matrix module. Here's what I concluded: J5A/J5B A0-A7: connect to DOUT #1 O7-O0 J15A D0-D7: connect to DOUT #2 O7-O0 J15A Vs: connect to Vs J10 D0-D7: connect to DIN #1 I0-I7 Anyone see any issue with this? Or is there a better way to do what I'm after?

Is this a "closed source" design?

Same question! I'd like to evaluate how the SEQ would fit into my workflow before I build one.

1 pair please

Well as a workaround for now, i'm going to light the buttons by default, and turn them off when pressed.

Hm, so if I remove the RGB parameter from the LED event, how do I set the LED to be dimmed slightly when there's the button isn't pressed?

Hmm, I hadn't considered that. Ok, so if I remove the dimmed parameter and try using rgb parameters in both the EVENT_BUTTON and EVENT_LED definitions like so: EVENT_LED id=1001 hw_id=1001 bank=1 rgb=1:0:0 fwd_to_lcd=1 lcd_pos=1:20:1 label="%3d %p" EVENT_BUTTON id=1001 hw_id=1001 bank=1 rgb=15:0:0 fwd_id=LED:1001 fwd_to_lcd=1 type=NoteOn key=36 chn=1 lcd_pos=1:33:2 label="%3i %N@(1:1:2)%B" The Led is off by default and when the button is pressed, it lights up dimly (the 1:0:0) value. So it seems like the rgb value from EVENT_BUTTON will not override the EVENT_LED... Or did I misunderstand your suggestion?

Hey! I was triggering both off the same DOUT which has worked fine otherwise. I tried using a different SR just in case, but no difference... :(

Hi folks - I have a 4x4 LED/button matrix setup for drum pads. Here's what I'm looking to set up (but can't)... All RGB LED's are a different color, always on but dimmed to lowest intensity When the respective button is pressed (or note received), the LED brightness changes to full intensity I've tried a lot of different configs, and I can get the led's to stay dimmed until a button press, but... the color doesn't change. All the LED's stay red. The config below is what I have now: RESET_HW LCD "%C@(1:1:1)v1.0" DebounceCtr 255 ### SR ### DIN_MATRIX n=1 rows=4 inverted=0 sr_dout_sel1=1 sr_din1=1 button_emu_id_offset=1001 DOUT_MATRIX n=1 rows=4 inverted=0 sr_dout_sel1=1 sr_dout_r1=3 sr_dout_g1=4 sr_dout_b1=5 led_emu_id_offset=1001 ### Buttons ### # LED's EVENT_LED id= 1001 hw_id=1001 bank=1 range=map1 dimmed=1 fwd_to_lcd=1 lcd_pos=1:20:1 label="^std_led" EVENT_LED id= 1002 hw_id=1002 bank=1 range=map1 dimmed=1 fwd_to_lcd=1 lcd_pos=1:20:1 label="^std_led" EVENT_LED id= 1003 hw_id=1003 bank=1 range=map1 dimmed=1 fwd_to_lcd=1 lcd_pos=1:20:1 label="^std_led" EVENT_LED id= 1004 hw_id=1004 bank=1 range=map1 dimmed=1 fwd_to_lcd=1 lcd_pos=1:20:1 label="^std_led" # Bank 1 EVENT_BUTTON id=1001 hw_id=1001 bank=1 fwd_id=LED:1001 fwd_to_lcd=1 type=NoteOn key=36 chn=1 rgb=15:0:0 lcd_pos=1:33:2 label="%3i %N@(1:1:2)%B" EVENT_BUTTON id=1002 hw_id=1002 bank=1 fwd_id=LED:1002 fwd_to_lcd=1 type=NoteOn key=37 chn=1 rgb=15:2:0 lcd_pos=1:33:2 label="%3i %N@(1:2:2)%B" EVENT_BUTTON id=1003 hw_id=1003 bank=1 fwd_id=LED:1003 fwd_to_lcd=1 type=NoteOn key=38 chn=1 rgb=15:8:0 lcd_pos=1:33:2 label="%3i %N@(1:3:2)%B" EVENT_BUTTON id=1004 hw_id=1004 bank=1 fwd_id=LED:1004 fwd_to_lcd=1 type=NoteOn key=39 chn=1 rgb=12:12:0 lcd_pos=1:33:2 label="%3i %N@(1:4:2)%B" MAP1 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 What am I doing wrong, or is there a better way to do this?
