Heheheh be confident ... At worst, it will be removed ;)
-
Yeh I only bugged out because I thought you meant a stock, bare enclosure :)
-
I put all my dollars in Gold....and silicon....copper.....fibreglass....plastic....You know, all the usual stuff synths are made of....

Just FYI... The problem is with dynamically generated PHP..... like this: */index.php?topic=7396.0;topicseen This means that all of the forum pages are called index.php (or index.htm from the client side). A spider application that will save your files will name them differently every time as it will have to make up a random name to save the file as... This means that it would have to change all the links in all the posts to point to these names, and in order to be updateable without fully regenerating the site mirror, it would have to maintain a database of the changed links. None of the freely available spider apps support this operation, so every time the CD was made, we would hammer poor twin-x's servers by re-downloading the entire content. The wiki can be exported from the web server by a dokuwiki add-on, but it will only run on a newer version of the PHP server than twin-x is running, so he would have to upgrade and risk stuffing up all his hosted sites. Now of course we could get the source content and run a mirror using a PHP server on a DVD (so you would insert the DVD and it would run a web server on your local PC that would work just like the one you're reading now) but of course that would make the inner working of the forum, including the logins etc, available to all who had the DVD. I like you guys, but I'm not telling my password! ;) I hate to be a stick in the mud but really there's no practical way of getting the forum or wiki working offline at present, without causing twin-x, "our hero" a great deal of hassle/money/downtime Sorry guys, I tried, really I did!

You might want to link to that from another page (say the MBSeq one?) otherwise it will just float there....
-
Sounds like a bad idea to me.... I'd have it as far away as possible....Actually I'd have everything as far away from the audio as possible. Not a 'must', but I am sure it won't hurt!
-
Man what I'd give for a P3 kit eh, you were lucky!.... She's looking very nice! It's funny that a couple of years ago people were running away from hardware sequencers and these days they're getting tired of crashing PC's and now h/w seqs are in high demand and stupidly overpriced :) Bring on the new MBSeq I say :D
-
:o $430 for an enclosure are you serious?!?!
-
Sorry mess but I've looked into this and there's no easy way really... Most 'spider' type apps like you referred to (as you might already know) will not be able to collect the pages either :( I was trying to make an midibox.org CD/DVD for those not able to get a fast internet connection but have basically abandoned the idea as it can't be automated....
-
Why's that? The end result is the same, with the exception of sharper timing, but beggars can't be choosers ;) Anyway you could get any device that will generate midi clock and a hardware MIDI router... The midibox is a Do-It-Yourself project so if you don't have any spare time it's probably not really suited to your needs :( You should quit your job and become a full-time midibox addict ;) Edit: this talk should be taken to 'sale requests' forum and not continue in this 'News' thread.

Hehehehe I know what you mean! It's one of many little mysteries :)
-
I think you would need to get TK's approval, selling would be commercial use. You could always use a multi-port MIDI interface and route midi clock out of your mac/pc. This could be done for a similar price... But a MIDIBox is not so hard if you are willing to spend a little time... So like they say, time is money... You just have to choose which one you will spend ;) Disclaimer: No guarantees. Mac/PC timing may leave you wishing you had built the ClockBox ;D
-
What if you replace the if statement with something simple like sending a midi CC, does that work? You got that encoder in the table? Does it work with normal encoder speed? Sorry for the barrage of questions... I'm trying to pinpoint the source of the fault, and your answers will give me the hints I need :)
-
I ?think? it was TK that recommended another method, where you can increment a counter each time the function is called, and then use a timer to send that value over MIDI at regular intervals. This way, you know that for example every 500ms your function runs N times... My twist on this method is to export the data to a file, parse the file for the rate of change of the counter, and graph it in excel. You can use multiple data sets in excel to compare the performance of different methods of code. TK has dropped a few cool hints about tweaking and monitoring performance (some of which I have in a 2 foot tall pile of printed forum pages hehehe)it'd make a good wiki page actually.... If anyone's interested, I'll search around and compile what I can find?

NICE! :D You're a crafty one, mox'!
-
Nah they only sent me a pair of pots... I will probably use them later but I didn't get the XY I asked for so I decided to wait until then before I try the spectra stuff :-\ Hey, if they do ship to France, they also have cheap PLED displays and all other kinds of good stuff (got 8 2x20's and 2 4x20's last week :D). The staff there are really cool and will surely try and help you out if they can.

Who says traces have to be standard copper anyway? I'll bet some clever metallurgist could make a nice alloy/compound of sorts... Trick would be to make it melt low enough to be printed but high enough to withstand soldering... Or I'll bet you could spray powdered copper (or whatever) based compound onto a special paper which would be impregnated or coated with a catalyst to bond it together a bit... I know these ideas sound far fetched and I am no master chemist or metallurgist heheehe Anyone know how those flexible PCB's are made?

GPD into midibox, AOUT into synth, voila ;)

The day I see a digital device you can juggle on, and I mean really juggle, what with those awesome harmonics you get if you cross it just right... That's when I get out the wallet... I wouldn't say noone cares about mixing though... I do know what you mean about nobody talking about it any more, but IMO that's because the music industry is 95% driven by either money or hiring your mates, which means the decent DJ's often can't get heard over the cliques and commercialism. It's not that people don't care, it's just that they don't know the difference any more, it's just a sea of beige DJ's....

Ahhh! Thanks random!
-
I wonder if this is related to the Recent page (Unread posts since last visit) .... I frequently have trouble with that skipping posts...
-
Oh yeh, if you need more ram... 4620. Gotta love that thing ;)

I've seen a few SoundBlasters like that too... Clearly a different card w/ same FCC ID....Weird...
