Minimum value 0, max 10 logical steps.....11 It may be a digital system but we come from an analogue world.

Just wanted to add my support to this project, I had so many ideas for ways to improve the edrum with mbhp. Imagine having a pot on each drum to tune it? Individual mutes on every cymbal....side stick on each kit piece...a pot to control snare springs on/off...expression pedal on hi-hat to control a variable level of openness using megatrigg or layering...damn, this will rock!

well since everyones posting theirs, I used microsim at uni for schematics and pcb design. I don't actually know who makes it but there is a download link on my uni site, anyone wants the link pm me.

I have been meaning to get round to building an MBHP MC with a few extras for quite some time now and have just about resigned myself to the fact I aint ever gonna have the time. I have decided to give up in part and buy a mackie control in the new year, although someday I'm gonna build that killer controller. However I NEED peak vu's on every channel to allow me to visually monitor my signals without the PC monitor and so wondered if anyone had successfully implemented this into a MC clone yet. What I want is a a means to build a vu meter to put between the computer and mackie and as I have 2 cores I wanted to build one. What I would need would be a mckie vu and mackie xt vu. The main unit would need at least 18 LED bars 8 stereo channels and 1 stereo master out, and a midi monitor LCD, the xt' would require only 16 bar LEDs for 8 stereo channels. The potentially hard part is that they would need some way to correspond to always match what the controller was set to. I know sx has an output in generic remote for the meters and wondered if anyone had tried using this yet. I was the thinking the 64E firmware could be adapted to use the douts only as the metering, has or could someone test if 16e/64e could do this with sx/nuendo. If implentable I was planning on 16 led bars of 10 green 4 yellow and 2 red, should 16 steps be possible? Although I plan it as an add on to a real mackie it would be a useful addon to anyone with a mios clone, and who knows mackie may finally give thorsten a big thankyou cheque since they ripped off banksticks for the universal.

$35??? how much do mice cost there?

I'm afraid you do have it wrong. It's not a universal protocol, it's a universal firmware which allows the MC to be booted in three modes to output the LC; MC or HUI protocols. It's like using banksticks, ie. it alters what each control outputs to mirror one of the three existing protocols which you choose when you power on.
-
http://go.to/edrum this allows velocity triggers which could be adapted into what you want.
-
what has happened is mackie has now released the mackie control universal which can be switched between lc, hui and mc protocols so all software can be controlled. There is a paid firmware upgrade for existing mc and lc customers. So whilst there is only one unit now, there is still 3 seperate protocols. I think personally that they robbed thorstens bankstick idea.

We can fix that, we have the technology ;) on a more serious note though, surely if fruity scratcher responds to a pot it is working off the midi cc? as a workaround if the encoder isn't working directly in, couldn't you set up midiox as a sitbetween and send the incoming signal from the encoder to midiox then route the cc down a soft midi port and into fruity? Traktor with an encoder would blow you away compared to fruity with a pot if you tried it. ooops, forgot to mention. This came out recently which I doubt you'd want to buy as you're here but may give you some ideas for a good scratchy midibox. http://www.hothardware.com/hh_files/S&V/djconsole.shtml

Hi thorsten, thanks for advice. I think I'll need a seperate core though as I am basing my midibox on 18F using mios and as far as could tell midimon is still only implemented on the 16F core?
-
I want to include an 8 digit MTC display in the transport section of my controller. I was looking at the midimon platform to do this using the extension, but looking at the midimon section it looks like thin can be acheived on a single dout. Would I be able to do this in mios on a single dout or do I need to build the midimon device as well, I was originally just going to have an extra midi in and out for MTC/midi Clock.

Try http://samples.microchip.com/ they're free and I don't see why they wouldn't ship to greece, my 18f were shipped from thailand to the uk. -
I got a phone call yesterday my samples are shipping as we speak, might order a couple of enclosures too, upto £50 per unit value they'll send for free
