sharing lcds and buttons between different midibox applications
stryd_one replied to jrp's topic in Design Concepts
Seq runs on a 4620, no CAN.... Switching would go crazy if the LCD was not completely idle... If you're building two MBCV's, that will take a lot of money for components and a lot of panel space for IO, I don't think it's worth messing about like that just to save a couple of bucks and a couple of inches... just my 2c :) -
Have you looked at the function reference and C skeleton? MPROC_NotifyReceivedEvent MIOS_DOUT_PinSet That's all ya need
-
Congratulations!! ;D ;D ;D

8xSID MB-SID PCB (aka. MB-6582) - request for comments
stryd_one replied to Wilba's topic in Bulk Orders
I'll be getting a bunch of those but shipping from AU is probably more than buying 100 so yeh.... Still if anyone wants some yell out. -
You might be interested in the BBD delays, personally I like the PT2399. You can find lots of guitar stompbox designs that should do nicely around the net :)
-
Nice! :) You should just glue that on and save some dough, looks great!
-
Sil plugs? Maybe I missed something :)

True. Yuck, GM. :-X Heh I guess if you're just playing around and not releasing stuff on a record/live gig/etc there's no harm in 'just letting go', but my personal opinion is that if you're going to present to the public you should take your music very seriously. Again, that's just my personal opinion, and I should keep it to myself, so I'm not trying to be pushy, just saying... I still will continue to try and encourage people to take it seriously, but if I can tell that we are coming from different places, I should let it go. I'm just mad at all the half-*ssed 'producers' around these days (sooo many of them!) who just throw randomly found cool sounds together loosely and add a filtersweep or three until a tune falls out the other end... Now we've had a chat I know that I was mistaken in thinking that was your intention. You're not so much making/listening to these patches as a musician, but as a sound lover (I don't mean to say you're not a muso by that, I hope you get what I mean). I guess that my intention is to deliberately create a cool sound and making the cool sounds interact in a cool way (by knowing about why they sound cool), where yours is to 'noodle' or enjoy the noodlings of others and discover that cool noise at random.... So I guess we're not really coming from a different place, just getting here in a different way ;) (Just FYI this post might give a hint at why I do what I do. Not Christianity, but certainly 'spiritual'. There's VERY good reason for the fact that animals love music the way we do, it's our link with the universe :) ) No! I'm sure you could, or I wouldn't be encouraging you :) Tooootally!! Making a patch, is nothing on making a tool to create the patch, just like playing a chord is nothing on building a piano ;) I'm glad you didn't take offense. Stryd_one getting it wrong badly, with apologies.

Lets go shopping :) ... your input wanted
stryd_one replied to thestruggler's topic in Parts Questions
hehehe yeh, I have another moniker I use elsewhere, which translates to something similar to the struggler, and yeh, we always create it for ourselves. I think Wilba's box is a good example here. He spent a good amount of time planning that and laying stuff out, and yet he also pushed it out as fast as he could....and thank goodness is encouraging me not to over-plan, which is the flipside of the coin. I think that's my failing, I over-plan. Badly. I thought I should encourage you to dive in, cause I could tell that you had apprehensions... But don't dive too hard in case the water is shallow/your pots are loo long ;) -
MIDIbox of the Week (MB64 Controller made by Quercus)
stryd_one replied to TK.'s topic in MIDIbox of the Week
8) That sure is a big one you got there Phil... Wait...That doesn't sound right ;D -
That's what I do, no fraud... There are reasons for that but I won't rant on. OK, me STFU now. I am very opinionated on this subject (hah and pretty much everything else), I should keep it to myself, apologies. I didn't mean any offense, just got too passionate... Hey your post disappeared :(
-
Ah right... I'm used to 'M' for major :)
-
Trying to get your postcount up or something? heheheh...
-
Don't thank me, you did it :) hehehe
-
Lets say it does. Go on...
-
Well Sasha I think you have found a valid problem, the solution just needs some tweaking :) You have a good creative mind don't give up :)
-
Does that have OSC in firmware?
-
Hmm I don't toy with this kinda gear, but couldn't you mod up the IIC_MIDI firmware to drive pins for analog gear instead of serial MIDI? It would be transparent to the seq of course...

When you have some more experience, you'll reach a point where you want a certain sound, and that method won't cut it any more... What you'll end up doing is going "I want a *Bzzzwhoofpinnnng* noise" and then you will sit and program an empty patch for 10 minutes before you even listen to it, then make a few small adjustments for a few hours/days/weeks to fine-tune it. That's making your own. I'd recommend you spend some time with a modular synth and see how your current method flies ;) Keep in mind that when you say 'tweaking is like making your own', you're not just bumping your skills up a level, you're also depreciating the value of the efforts of people who really do make their stuff from scratch. Slightly OT: This reminds me of a conversation I had with a g/f of mine. There was a transvestite on TV, who referred to themselves as "She", as trannies will do. My girl said something about them being an "it" to which I took great offence as I have tranny friends. I jumped to their defence. She then pointed out to me that by calling themselves "she", they implied womanhood, and that being a woman carries with it great burdens (menstruation, perverts, discrimination, etc) and that for someone else to make such a claim when they had not borne that weight was disrespectful to women who really have had those tribulations in their life. I pointed out that transvestites have to deal with their own tribulations, just as great if not greater, and she said yeh, fair enough, but that doesn't make them a woman any more than having breasts makes her a transexual. I couldn't argue and I realised she was right.... ...So stop making out like you're doing something just as good as making your own, cause it's a diss to me and the 2 months I spent making my last additive patch for my k5000 :P
-
Perhaps you could suggest an alternative? I'm not into OSC so I don't know/care... Obviously you have an opinion....
-
Yeh, but what is perfect for one person may be useless for another, in which case having the list is not so helpful for newbies... Like if they need to find something in particular, there's always the search engine, and google... Certainly. I think you're right, it should just be a list without too much chatter, to be useful.... But then, if there is too much of a lack of info, again it raises more questions. Exactly... I mean, I have seen 1000's of switches, and none of them are what I want so far... but many of them would be good for others... I definitely agree with the last part, altough of course some people don't care for cosmetics (not us heheh)... The first part though, I disagree with, because I think that in many cases, the electronics you use can effect the cosmetics. If you like, you can edit pages in Word or OpenOffice and convert them to wiki format.... Although I think it's pretty much the same as editing forum posts? What part is it that you don't like?

Monitoring Headphones - your suggestions please
stryd_one replied to TheAncientOne's topic in Miscellaneous
5 grand holy crap! :o Wow they would want to be good... I think I'll stick with my events :) Thanks for the linkage tho dude -
It's a groovebox thingy. A pretty good one if you're into that. If it's just "broken" then I wouldn't do it if I were you. For all you know the entire insides have been removed. Surely the seller can tell you what happens when he tries to make it work? IE does it not power on? No sound? No midi out? No screen?
