[MIOS V1.0]

Amazing news Thorsten    :)

I will be testing MIOS on my upcoming LC the only think is there are going to be a lot of questions. ;)

But for the time I have to deside the layout of the box >:(

And of course I need those 18F from Microchip (for free ;D) (stryd_one <-you are very lucky in the timming, I have to work on that)

Take care man

Hello T

I found a very nice display on the net and I will like to find out if it is compatible with the current driver in MIOS.

The link is:

http://www.hantronix.com/down/64gs242p.pdf

or

http://www.hantronix.com/2_1.html

and look for the HDM64GS24-2

It just looks nice on blue color

Regards

[bitmap editor for wintendo?]

Hi T

As I see you want to use it for the icons on the LCD of the MIOS so I only suggesting using an icon editor

http://www.iconcool.com/

Otherwise (if i got it wrong ) the photosop or the photopaint or the paint shop pro will be the best

Regards

[Logic XP]

Here is a tip for all the ppl using Logic in Windows XP:

Create a text file

Copy paste the following using notepad or any editor:

[tt]<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?><assembly xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1" manifestVersion="1.0"><assemblyIdentity version="1.0.0.0" processorArchitecture="X86" name="CompanyName.ProductName.YourApp" type="win32"/><description>Your application description here.</description><dependency> <dependentAssembly> <assemblyIdentity type="win32" name="Microsoft.Windows.Common-Controls" version="6.0.0.0" processorArchitecture="X86" publicKeyToken="6595b64144ccf1df" language="*" /> </dependentAssembly></dependency></assembly>[/tt]

Save the file.

Copy the file to Logic directory

Rename as the filename suggests eg for logic 5.5

Logic Platinum 5.5.0.exe.manifest

Run logic and observe the differencies on the dialog more XP styled.

This tip is useles with the steinberg products cubase, wavelab ( I thing they using Borland libraries and not the standard MS API).

Happy sequencing  ;D ;D ;D

PS. Thorsten bring the MIOS even undocumented (at least to me as I am alpha and  beta tester) :) :) :)

[MB NG LC EMU w/ G-LCD]

Hi Thorsten

The price can be reduced by following meassures:

motorfaders replaced by non-motorized faders (saves also one core module)

Regarding the implementation of normal 10k linear faders instead of motorfaders not mainly for cost reasons but i havent yet found a source to get them in greece (and i already had a bad experience with internet shopping)

So the point is: using the 18F processor how many DINX, DOUT, AINX will be  needed to have the LC emu.

Another point is using linear pots there is no limitation for only 8 pots as in motorfader extention so the master can be implemented as well.

Some rough thoughts are for 96 buttons needed 3 DOUT

Also another DOUT for led rings

1 DINX for the 9 encoders 8 for channels 1 for scrub wheel

1 AINX for the 9 faders8 for channels 1 for master.

Are those thoughts right or I got it all wrong.

Any inputs are welcome

Thx

[Channel Selection?]

First of all welcome to forum

The midibox 64 supports up to 16 bamks to be saved in an eprom. In each bank you can assing deferent cc for one or more channels so the answer is yes .

Best Regards and good luck to your first midibox

[encoder+ledbar instead of motorfader]

Another fine idea from Serum

Question By adding 16 encoders for volume and 16 for the usuall parameters is it possible to have the code so the final midibox will be recognised from Logic as Logic contron + extention (meaning  16 channels in one box no master volume)?

(i assume I need 2 cores for this project)

[w/o words]

Thorsten thats a  fine panel

one silly question the 12X4 led holes at the right upper side where are those usefull to?

keep them comming...  :)

[Best wishes]

Merry Xmas and a happy New Year to you too Thorsten and everyone in this  forum.

All the best to all the mibibox maniacs :)

And may the new year bring an exciting new project.

Dimitris  

[Midibox from Axel]

These words are from Axel's reply to the same question

Hi Dimitris,

I bought the transparent disks on top of the LEDs together with the knobs

at Bürklin (www.buerklin.com), but similar ones are available at Reichelt

(www.reichelt.de ) or Farnell (www.farnell.com ). Farnell is quite expensive

for most parts, but delivering is very fast and easy

[a dial instead of the toggles]

Or instead you can use the BB firmware with 2 buttons instead of 4 as Thorsten suggest and get the best compatibillity with logic and cubase. If you search  in the troubleshouting you will find a post from me on that matter

Mind you that I bought an hex coding dial but the 2 buttons are far better in terms of usabillity

[Good news for PIC18F migration]

Hi,

Since all the hardware is compatibe and the price difference is very low the only considaration is availability. :(

It may sound silly but I have problems getting even the 16F in Greece but since internet shopping is easy inside europe thats a minor. :)

Lets upgrade the processors then....

[Mackie Controller Tests]

Hi there

Since you got the mackie in phisical dimmention may be you want to help me (and the forum) by getting the dimmentions of the spaces between faders buttons etc... I know its kind hard to get a ruler and start mesuring but in that way (having all the spacing diameters) I can make a autocad drawing and a pcb so all the buttons, leds, faders are in position and will require even less effort for the ones with less electronick knowlege to build an emulator. If you have 15-20 mins spare I will appreciate the inputs.

PS if you have the pdf from emagic there is a draw in  there so writting the values in aprinted copy and then scan it will be easier. The dimentions have to be center to center for buttons, leds for faders the screws above and below.

Best...

[Combined 64 & 16E diagram check]

So standard 10k linear faders will operate as motorfaders

I think Thorsten is suggesting a cut down version that standard faders emulate  the motorfaders and this is possible with all the different pot modes already available in the midibox range

[Combined 64 & 16E diagram check]

Thats good thinking for bothof you

I would like to ask if is possible to connect only 9 encoders instead of 16? the reduntant signals just go to earth?

For my self i have a plan with 2 cores 1 mf & 1 16e

96 buttons 8 motorfaders 9 encoders ( or if possible to assign master to encoder 10)

and all the leds

Basically an exactly copy of the lc.
