  1. Yeah I did play around with the voltage and got them to run as smooth as I could; however they still tend to stutter/jump (it seems as if the power builds up then pushes the slider up/down in a hurry as if there is not enough torque in the motor to move at a steady speed. It is quite good; it just doesnt move as smoothly as the faders on the screen.

    I spose it could be my power supply? (although I am fairly sure it meets the recommendations?!)

    Like I said tho; some more testing is required once I get the case finished.

    Then I can give you guys an accurate review  ;D

  3. The JDM is used to program the PIC of the core module you can either:

    remove the PIC from the core

    insert on the JDM

    then burn your firmware & insert the PIC back on the core

    or

    Use the in-circuit programmer cable to connect the jdm directly to the core and program the PIC without removing it from the core

    So the JDM does not require a PIC to be inserted if you use the second method.

    The JDM is merely a programming interface between your PC and the PIC

  4. Sorry Stigmata but this doesnt answer your question at all.......

    Im running the mos8580(ex C128D) with CLK connected to the PIC, so far it hasnt got hot, using 6.8nF caps

    I got a short piece of ribbon cable to connect to the PIC

    dont know if this makes any difference???

    Has any1 had overheating probs when using the 1mhz OSC instead of the PIC pin?

    And has any 1 found a 1mhz OSC in NZ or Australia??

  5. No need to unsolder any parts if you built your PS on a seperate board, you can just connect the output wires of the power supply board to the core board after the point where the bridge rectifier sits. That way you dont need to stuff any of the PS parts (all the caps, rectifier and regulator sit on the PS board)

    Takes up a bit more room but thats how mine is and it works good.
