  1. MIOS I/O Pin usage in wiki format :)
  2. Brown Out Reset? fixed_bor_setup
  3. Yeh bit crushing rules. Bring it on man :)
  4. Holy cow... That's one way to test your skills!
  5. That documentation is still mostly OK, but the files have old copies of the ACSim, and the new versions of code::blocks behave a little differently... I don't know if I'd trust that doco any more :( I hope it hasn't caused any problems...
  6. WinPIC800 Supports the MBHP JDM and will program 452's, 4620, 4550, 16F88, etc etc... And it's fast too :) I'll PM you about this patching thing ;)
  7. Ahhh, the 640000 dollar question!! Anyone got any good leads? I'd be more than satisfied to find some place that will engrave those two-layer acrylics. We've got four of us... I reckon we should go overthrow Rockbys and claim it for the midibox community ;) I'm probably going in this weekend if anyone wants to join the raid
  8. You've been keeping secrets from us haven't you TwinX ;D
  9. I think it might need another cut between the + and ~ on the rectifier?
  10. Heh we are the parts bounty hunters from hell :D
  11. Thanks for taking the time Seppo :D I know it can take many hours just to find a single candidate, and sometimes it falls through right away. You must be losing sleep by now ;)
  12. It does work :) It's not really a better way - it's the only way ;) heheh ....Multidimensional arrays just won't work at all unfortunately :(
  13. http://search.ebay.com.au/_W0QQfsooZ1QQfsopZ1QQsassZjesslin123QQsbrsrtZd Some really nice gear, unfortunately pickup only in Sydney Australia :( Anyone in Sydney? Did a mod remove some posts here or am I going crazy?
  14. A thought...where a button can be held in place to act like a 'shift' button, you want all those buttons together, on one side of the CS, so that you can use one hand to hold it in, and the other hand to hit the other button :)
  15. Nope, this is an open source thing.... Uses any flat screen and a standard video camera :)
  16. Totally... But they're kinda expensive to get into :( Look at the price difference between a MBHP core and the FPGASynth. Ouch. Totally disagree. This is MIDIBox :) I'm all for DIY digital synths (I'd love to render my K5K obsolete by my own hand, despite the sacrilege ;) ), and I know that audio manipulation is far more trendy than midi mangling in recent years, but MIDI still has it's place, and I think it would be a crying shame to lose the MIDI focus of a community like this :( Don;t get me wrong though - MIOS/MBHP is an awesome platform to be partnered up with an audio device, be it a SID or OPL or FPGA or...... AD switch matrix....... Yeh not to mention the SRAM extension. The vX prototype has 4Mbits of SRAM. Yes, that's an M for Mega ;D All this talk of AVR chips with more RAM than a 4620... are there any? Is it a big difference or a few K? Totally agree :) You've been reading my wiki page haven't you ;) I think I posted about this a while back too... I've got the driver basically done (it's pretty simple, it's a great chip and programming them is a snap), but the board design for the audio part is the tricky thing... IIRC (it's in the datasheet I can't be bothered reading again heh) you need to have 3 layers at least, to avoid ground noise and crosstalk problems, and if you're using it for mixing you have to think about balanced I/O too, as well as it needing 3v not 5v... I actually think it might not be that hard for someone experienced in synth diy *stares at you, moogah* ;D but I don't yet have the confidence in board design to spend the money on a prototype I designed with my n00b skillz heheheh Seen this page ? I think this kind of module would be indispensable... as well as the mixer and FX routing, and automated audio patchbays, one thing that people never mention is automated analog modular synth patching and routing... Imagine a real analog version of a nord modular... and anyone with a modular synth can hook a midibox up to it for full recall and remote editing.... droool *falls down* PS the JDM works with 4620s too
  17. Yeh, something heart-warming about a bag of LED's the size of a mini football :D I was thinking it could be worthwhile to consider a new CS layout with the new version, but aside from the addition of a few buttons, it seems like the v2 UI is just fine... What do you think TK? Is it worth creating a new kind of layout for those who are building a new v3, not upgrading an existing v2?
  18. I am a bit busy at the moment but I'll volunteer any help I can give.
  19. Ouch yeh that's pricey :( Bit out of my reach.... I know the full price put a lot of people off, but it's not like it's going to be any cheaper to DIY is it? Now you know why I wanted it programmable by MIDI ;) hehehe
  20. 'Course, you could always program them via a PC (JSynthLib), and use a minimal CS for realtime tweakage :)
  21. Yes! :) *Goes hunting for an extension like that*
  22. This thing is old news, but the reason I saw fit to make a new post was that it's finally been completed to a point of public release: http://synthwire.blogspot.com/2006/10/reactable.html Somebody tell me I didn't just spend almost a grand on knobs for nothing ;)
  23. Wilba you recommended them to me mate :) I think it went something like this: "F*&^ these (&^#&!! SIL pins, doing this &$&%( *@&% with pliers is a *&%&%^ pain the the &%*%*!! Save yourself! Get crimpers dude!"
