Problem #1 (hopefully, "of 1"!) Just completed JA board and moving on to testing. On boot/reboot, I'm getting buttons 1, 2, 3 and 5 of the lower row lit on JA, and green light on SD board and red power on Wavemaker (see pic). If I insert the SD card (FAT32 formatted with ther seq_l file in root only), I get solid amber light and flashing blue on SD board and all lights go out on JA board. This sometimes happens afer reboot without inserting SD card, but always if I do. Logging from MIOS Studio looks like: [blue block was reboot with card inserted, block above was without card inserted] Feels like card *and* button (short?) issues? I can't find the button mapping refs through search... I've reflowed the SD card connection - the last two are very tight but I don't see a short. Can't see a short on JA board either, but I'm squinting a bit after a day soldering :)

More a solved issue for the record than a request - hope this is in the right place? Day #1 of build and I got through to finishing the SD card board build. Thanks to Peter’s video! It’s a great help. When I got to attaching the core + USB + Wavemaker elements to MIOS Studio, I couldn’t get MIOS to recognise the new MIDI devices. I’m on a Mac (10.12) Having used the rescan MIDI ports command a few times having checked connections, I went to the Mac MIDI Studio and there it was... nicely recognised. When I restarted MIOS Studio it found the setup and I moved on... So, I guess the lesson (for Mac users, at least) is that the MIOS Studio warning and the Rescan functionality not working very well actually *IS* true!

Hi all Newb user and newb to Midibox, so thought I'd say hi... I'm going to order the Midiphy Seq V4+ full essential kit as soon as the cases are in. I've built a few kits before (mostly Mutable Instr - a Shruthi, a Shruthi XT, an Ambika, lots of filter cards, etc.) - I'm no expert builder, but I can follow instructions (I've bookmarked the guide and Peter's videos already) and will almost certainly ask some dumb questions here, so please be patient :) I thought I'd get my first one out of the way: shold I go left-handed, or right-handed? I *am* right handed so my instict is to get the jog dial on the left as I assume most of the action will be on the sequencer keys... does that sound right? Thanks all, Simon
