  1. Great work. Any chance of a proper license? Saying "Licensed for personal, non-commercial use" isn't a license. Same goes with MIOS32. It's not clearly licensed.
  2. No I didn't, but will try that next. Between the SEQ and the various legato/port settings on my Ambika it all started getting a bit out of control and then as usual, the tune morphed into something completely different. :)
  3. Is there a way to Note On a step and not retrigger it when the track loops around? I'm trying to get a long drone going and the retrigger is wrecking the evolvingness of my patch. I'd like a note "on" and then left alone.
  4. #5 is alive! I'm getting quite good at this. No failures so far.

  5. Hah! y'know jjonas, I'm starting to think everytime I ask a question you add a new bit to the beginners guide then point it out to me. :) Thanks mate. You've done a rock job on that guide.
  6. 1st SMR voice card done. I now have drool.

      I ordered a white on blue lcd. The oled look amazing I have a  20x2  but the best price I could find currently with shipping on the 40x2 is $75. They are $120 on ebay right now. That is just crazy for a display. The Blue lcd was $9.... The 20x2 oleds were $16. I have been keeping an eye out for a good price on the 40s but have not found it yet.

      Here's the one I ordered from Mouser. Note that once you solder on your display you're committed.

      Thanks for the tip!  Those are out of stock with a 18 week lead time. They did have a few in Green or Yellow.  Hard decision there, the boards I have are white in clear acrylic case with all blue 1% components. I get paid tomorrow mouser might just get some of my money still! Would be an easy decision if they had white or blue.   I have a hot air rework station. You definitely still have to be careful but it is not quite so committed of a situation..

  7. Hi folks, Is there a way to use tracks containing parameters only (CC's in this case) and apply them to other note tracks? Perhaps using some bus shennanigans?
  8. Cable wasn't fully seated into the socket underneath the CS. While it looked like it was in, it was at very slight angle meaning that channel wasn't made.
  9. Replaced U7. No luck. Is there a wiring schematic somewhere other than the Wilba.pdf thats in the shape of the CS?
  10. Nope. All those LED's are working. LED's on GP11/12 are broken (along with the buttons).
  11. So it wouldn't be a change of season without Mongrol breaking something. I got sick of the Orange case and its sneaky ways of making me always write circus music and I replaced my SEQv4 into a black case. On the way I've broken all the buttons on M3. What's the traditional way of troubleshooting a matrix channel? (I'm specifically asking instead of working it out myself to get it recording on the forum for others.) So far I've identified the buttons not working. Looking in the MBSEQ_HW.v4 file I can see the following # SR Pin BUTTON_STOP M3 5 BUTTON_REW M3 4 BUTTON_PAR_LAYER_C M3 6 BUTTON_GP11 M3 0 BUTTON_GP12 M3 1 BUTTON_TRACK_SEL M3 3 BUTTON_UTILITY M3 2 Which are exactly my broken buttons. What next?
  12. /me breaks it again...

  13. Ok, please use the mongbox-nopower-scale-corrected.svg . This is more a more accurate fix from Ponoko than my -test file. Unfortunately it doesn't include the power cutouts, but they are easy to add anyway.

    Awesome build. That's a work of art.
  15. Ponoko also sent me a fixed file. I'll compare it to test and upload the best one later on.
  16. So it turns out my SVG files are barfed if you open them in Inkscape. This is due to Illustrator missing some scaling information that Inkscape needs when it saves it out. I've uploaded a fixed version with "test" in the name that should open properly in Inkscape. Disclaimer: The $150 laser costs are at your own risk. I haven't had anything cut with the "test" file.
  17. 4p voice one done. Sounds awesome! Beats my Micromonsta as best synth.

  18. Yep. I think in reality my power problem was so marginal it could've went either way. Originally my Raystars and Midas screens were working fine on 5v power and without any jumper switching until my mishap. It was only when I started fiddling around doing the repair that it all went wrong.
  19. After all my drama I now power my SEQ from a 9v variable PSU (which also powers 4 other devices) through one of these. UBEC DC/DC Step-Down (Buck) Converter - 5V @ 3A output I'm using Vishay oled's though which didn't seem to have the same power tolerance issues as my previous Raystars and Midas oleds.
  20. Ambika mobo done and working. White Vishay oled for teh w1n.

  21. Super excited to start my ambika build.

      Nice! I have the pcb laying around. But promised myself i would finish other projects :)

      Good choice, it's a versatile synth!

  22. r0ck! Mr jjonas. I'm speed reading in too big jumps. I read over that bit and somehow missed it....focus mongrol, focus. :)
  23. I'm sure this has been asked before but I couldn't find anything about it in the manual or forum. Does Live Recording mode record CC parameter changes? I think this is called p-locks on Electron boxes. My Volca Keys does it as well. I presume if it does it would need a matching CC layer setup. My other question is, can it handle 2 MIDI-IN's? As in, my keyboard sends note data, and a "yet to be determined" knob controller sends CC's.
