  1. Hi,

    I have found distributor of rotary encoders in Poland: http://www.microdis.pl/. There is no minimal order, shipping is free (in Poland) for orders > 200 PLN (1 Euro ~ 4 PLN).

    Here are the prices for STEC16B03:

    1pcs --->  12.75PLN

    10pcs ---> 11.48PLN

    50pcs ---> 10.33PLN

    100pcs ---> 9.8PLN (netto).

    Unfortunately there are only 6 encoders in the store now :(. I was told, that next delivery from Alps should be in two weeks.

    The prices from http://www.schuricht.de are more attractive, but its not for individuals :(

    Regards,

  2. New SID features are really COOOOL !

    Thorsten, can You tell us how many rotary encoders are you going to use in front panel ? I'm going to order rotary encoders next week for midibox16e, and I would like to order some extra encoders if they will be used in sidbox ? Even if design is not finished, the part list would be very helpful :)

    BTW. I have probably found place in Poland, where it's possible to buy ALPS encoders without minimal order. I will verify it next week and post here information about condition and prices.

    Regards,

  3. Hi,

    I’d like to build Logic/Mackie control & SID box with control surface. I’m a little bit confused, because I can not find place, where I could buy rotary encoders, motor faders and PIC18F.

    Probably there are more persons in Poland in the same situation - I would like to exchange informations with people from Poland which have build / planning to build midibox. Maybe somebody has bought these parts from online shop: which one to choose? Every information will be helpful.

    Marry Christmas to Everybody.

  4. HI!

    As I remember, there was possibility to control 'Ed Lib tracker' by midi keyboard connected thru mpu401.

    In this case it is probably possible to use soundcards joystick port as a midi interface and play adlib sounds from Cubase or other sequencer.

    I don't remember if it was possible to use arpagios or other more complicated sounds ? I have to try it next week  ;D

    Here is a place, when You can find some old FM Trackers :

    http://www.astercity.net/~malf/trackers.html

    (I do not know if any of them works with midi - let us know if You find one.

    BTW. It could be quite interesting to build synth module (like SID BOX) with OPL chip. With additional effects / filters it could generate interesting polyphonic sounds.

    Regards,

  5. Thanks for your replay Pilo.

    I like the idea of making one big order. Maybe somebody else is interested?

    From the other hand I would like to know, if rotary encoders will be used in control interface of SID BOX? I am going to build at least one SID BOX next year (still looking for 6581), so I could by more then 16 encoders now.
