  7. Mongbox Enclosure

    in MIDIbox SEQ

    Posted

    The glass is 3mm dark grey acrylic. Cut at Ponoko along with rest of it. It's sized very slightly larger than the hole to include the laser's width (called kerf). So the finished product should just fit into the hole snugly and not fall out. You just pop them in. Well, that was the plan. But kerf factor is variable on all sorts of things so my first attempt fell out when turned upside down. I don't gig so I just left it like that.

    I don't have my Midibox anymore so can't send you close ups.

    Hi, thanks for this great enclosure. I am unable to open the scale-corrected version in Inkscape, and I don't have Illustrator. Also, I get the error message at ponoko when I try to upload it. Is it possible to get an updated version, or perhaps a DXF?

    Thanks,

    Justin

    Are you sure your downloaded the "raw" file from github? If you rightclick the file and save you'll end up with an html page instead of the actual file.

    I feel personally attacked when you write that the way how I release my work is "a shame".
    You misinterpreted the "licensed for personal non-commercial use only, all other rights reserved" term. There are even ways to use my code for commercial products with my permission, see also http://midibox.org/forums/topic/5359-rules/

    Same question: does this cause a personal problem at your side?

    Yeah, sorry about that. I think my scottish usage of "shame" is different from other cultures. In no way did I mean anything is "shameful". In scottish terms it means more like "wasted opportunity". There's no personal attack intended here. I think the work and support you've given over the year incredible. I'll explain for comment below.

    My comment is based purely on my laymans intepretation of the licensing and my view of this project and the current development world in which we now live. The MIOS licensing at first look is a simple one of non-commercial use. It's not one of the established licenses (MIT, GPL etc) that are pretty well understood from a layman developers pov. I read that license, I want to develop mods to SEQ and I'm put off because any code I write I can only distribute as a patch which makes my code pretty much useless for everyone else. I can't put up my own blob of my own variant for other "users" to use on their SEQ.

    If I've interpreted it this way, then others surely have come along and left as well. The result is noone but TK hacking on MIOS Apps and the project won't grow. I also don't see how TAPR applies to MIOS. It doesn't matter if I've interpreted it wrongly as the end result is the same. The project doesn't grow.

    I fully realise this is TK's project and he's fully entitled to do as he wishes and he has probably already considered what I've said many times in the past. Any contribution of code/effort/time to society is gracious and I'm very thankful for that. I just like seeing projects I like flourish.

    The code source is open for personal use only. It's not "Open Source" in the normally understood terms, in that you can modify and redistribute it. It's a shame really, I'd love to hack on it but I can't redistribute a modified version so I'm not going to bother putting the effort in. No idea about hardware licensing, I have a bad enough time with software. :)

    Removed misunderstood tax thing.

    Since the Aussie dollar is heading in the wrong direction and those in Europe get stung by 25% import tax, I've dropped the price to $900 AUD. Also happy to negotiate.

    Price drop

    Sold

     

    Hi,

    I'm selling my Midibox SEQ v4 to fund other things. It has the latest STM32F4 and 2x MIDIIO boards. Looking for $800 AUD including shipping worldwide (see below on price drop). A bit less than what it cost to build. Aussie powersupply is included and the unit is very stable. It now has a black enclosure of the same design in the thread below. The rear panel cracked while shipping the acrylic but has been glued. It's solid but wobbles a little due to a slight twist in the bottom panel. A wee dod of blutak fixes it.

    Original build thread

    Enclosure thread.  You get the orange enclosure if you like neon.

  18. The Random Recording Button

    in MIDIbox SEQ

    Posted

    When I press my (F3) recording button it seems to randomly pick Step or Live recording. Is there any logic to this? I've yet to figure out a pattern to what it chooses. It's frequently the oppositie of what I want, I go into Jam, set it to my choice. Then go out. Great. 5 mins later it switches back to the opposite one. It just seems random.
