Peter, nice work! Also good to see a mini-TPD, albeit this seems to have only a single color?
Are the UI schematics publicly available or do we need to reverse-engineer them based on the v4+ config file? I'm thinking about my own homebrew version using Marquardt switches, I don't like those christmas tree ones you are using :-).
Best, ilmenator

Ok, then what you have is the v2 version already. Here are some measurements, but don't get overly excited about the three decimal places, as the cursor's and the board's raster did not match exactly when I measured...
-
Is this for the v1 or the v2 BLM16x4 board? I think I moved some components around in the transition from v1 to v2 to make room for the added traces necessary to accommodate three different types of switches/buttons at the same time...

16x8 LED matrix works well!
You've got the ON / OFF phases of the LEDs reversed!

Very nicely done, thank you!
If you want, you could add the build file to the TPD Wiki page - but only if you want, no obligation whatsoever - I just like the idea!
Best, ilmenator
edit: or, I could also do that, if you don't mind?

You will get the same problem with the switches, isn't it? Then...
Yes, and that's already bad enough, so why open it up for even more dust to enter?

Regarding the encoder knobs: we will probably suggest to Adrian to counter-sink them "into the frontpanel", i.e. have bigger cutouts, like another famous sequencer out there :).
I'd rather not "countersink" them - I always feel better without dust getting inside the enclosure.

Great that you've figured it out (and that you report here!)
-
Where are you located?
-
Check the repository, there is a MIDIbox solution for this from which you can take some code inspiration!
-
Congratulations, the unit is looking very nice indeed!

@tedysuwarnady I hate being the guy, but you are seriously misbehaving. You are continuously ignoring all the suggestions you get. This is tragic because answering them would help to determine what is wrong with your unit. It seems like you don't even care about help.
Also, please stop asking for schematics and board files in every other of your posts.

- 64 input ports and 64 output ports, scalable
- 8 mergers, freely configurable
- a panic button
- zero latency for the router
- configuration via software interface ("setup")
- handling via a dedicated hardware interface (remote control) that can be placed anywhere, e.g. on the mixing desk (like a Lexicon LARC)
- ports can be given a name, and these names are displayed in the user interface
- setups can be stored and recalled via MIDI, and there is a program change table like in some older Yamaha synths
- activity display showing in-, out- and merger activity
- modular approach, so that I don't have to pay for all the IOs when I only need 32 because I'm Hawkeye
- distributed, as in "I have a number of racks with equipment, and these are located all around my studio, but I want to keep my MIDI cables short with only one 'multicore' going to the central matrix from each rack"
- obviously DIY, but preferably there is someone who has done all the hard work, and PCBs are made available
- affordable
The v2 of this will feature all of the above

Sure, drop me a PM for details.

We have had problems reported here on the forum when using 3,3V based MIDI gear trying to send data to certain 5V operating MIDI receivers. Maybe that is a path for further inquiry?
-
There weren't a lot of projects on the 16F88, so I assume you are refering to the MIDI merger project? This is located here.

Thanks for your update!
-
Very nice as always - thumbs up!
-
That would be much appreciated by everyone around here - thanks!
-
That's absolutely true, it is not always a good idea to go for the "best"/"biggest" tool :-).
-
Thanks for the good work! I'll put a link in the wiki pointing to this thread.

Drop me a PM.

If Hawkeye doesn't want to sell his, I think I might have an unpopulated PCB somewhere. Drop me a PM if still interested.

Hi,
as far as I know there is no one who has ever tried this and reported back here on the forum.
However, the main problem with unbalanced I/O chains (i.e. chains in which the input chain is much longer or much shorter than the output chain) is that whenever you have a matrix setup at the end of the chain, the timing is messed up. For a matrix configuration, it is important that the output pins are in a specific state at the time when the input pins are read.
In your configuration, however, you have only digital outputs at the end of the chain (after the line driver module). As the integrity of the chains themselves is not altered by the TPD module, in theory this hardware configuration should work without any issue. But, there has been no-one who has tested this in real life so far.
Kind regards, ilmenator

That's not so nice, what a pity. So I'd need to buy a PCB from you in order to receive the schematics, although I don't even want to use your board?
