  1. I have made 2 arturia control surfaces with mbhp. MMV and miniMoog. both work great. good luck
  2. again, too dang kool ! I have all of the parts for this, think i will burn the pcb this weekend and give it a try, Thanx Prof !
  3. Too Dang KOOL! specs / schematics?
  4. sooo kool ! now all u have to do is hack MIOS and make the lcd's display cyrillic.... hee hee hee great looking box, bud. gb
  5. Here is the next incarnation.....still some bits to go... but getting there gb MBSEQ-next.pdf MBSEQ-next.pdf
  6. eventually I will have all of the Din's and Dout's connected... but they will have to be separate drawings... unless I can do it in flash or something to get all the layers.... like I said, a work in progress. The original is done with photoshop so I have layers to work with. p.s. I have not taken the test, but I don't believe fish drink. Respiration / osmosis? might take care of the h2o requirement? gb
  7. Here is a work in progress for my front panel interconnections to DinX4 & DinX2 modules only the first is connected, taking my time with this.... SeqV3-FP-InterconnectButtonsSwitches.pdf SeqV3-FP-InterconnectButtonsSwitches.pdf
  8. ok, sherman set the wayback..... I messed with walkmen clones, old 8-track hardware.... been there done that... it's REDICULOUSLY expensive.... The Mellotron dudes got it correct the first time... a standard capstan that spins everything at the same rate.. but the wear and tear... then I bought my first Kurzweil in a pawn shop... old K2000S maxed out the RAM and OS. About 500 USD. ..... that's kinda when I gave up on the tape thing.... it has tickled my fancy a few times since then... but I do find it to be much more satisfying to just spring for the pro samples... and put em in the K2000. my 2cents
  9. BTW, we survived IKE !!! no power or internet for 5 weeks, thank you very much.... I can't believe this in Houston!! anyway, nice to be back c ya
  10. I've been working on a DIY Mellotron since the 70's...... grrrrrrr
  11. uhhh, heat it up with your soldering iron and pull the wires away.... then use a hobby knife to scrape the leftovers off the board, then drill the holes that got filled up? i use that procedure on a regular basis... if there is a better one, lemme know!! gb
  12. these are personal preferences, at this point, your questions are about esthetics. everybody has a different vent on what looks good.. or might be usable as an interface good luck with your particular interface ! gb
  13. the CS line on LCD 1 is hooked normally to the Core with the ribbon cable, the CS on LCD 2 will be connected to.... RC on J10 of the Core? The loose wire, not quite sure what I will do to fasten it down.. but that shouldn't be rocket science. (who/m/ever invented hot glue should get the Nobel Prize!) that's my story and I'm sticking with it :)
  14. I am using the same idea InDeep, however I am using wire wrap to interconnect the LCD's together and then into a pin block that is soldered to the ribbon cable going to the connector on the Core.....here is a cheesy pic but you get the idea. And of course, I have not connected the second LCD as of yet. good luck, gb
  15. hmmm, just tried this a couple of times on my mac and got the following: MacPro:MidiBoxStuff ggb$ svn co svn://svnmios.midibox.org/mios svn: Can't connect to host 'svnmios.midibox.org': Operation timed out Not sure if i beeez doing something incorrectly, followed the 'if you run Linux/MacOS then svn is (mostly) installed. Opened terminal in my midibox directory/folder and got the above message. any ideas midibudz? TIA gb
  16. I have thought about that also, but have not dissected my switches to see if I can replace the LEDs. I think I got the idea of bolting the perfboards from the pix that TK put up on the web. My point of difference, I then attached the perfboard to 1/4" hardboard (with 1/2" plastic spacers) to firm up the 'floppy' way perfboard goes together. I will drill holes in the hardboard to allow wires to pass through, and mount all the PCBs on the underside of the hardboard. That way, it is only a rack mounted panel, without an enclosure. good luck with your project !! gb
  17. here is the control surface so far.... wondering if I will need some other button caps for the black switches... hmmm need to look.
  18. yeah, that was my problem.... luckily, i am a pc tech so have pc's also. I grabbed the image in 'FrontPanel' then saved it as a gif file. pulled it into photoshop on my mac and scaled it to fit a 19 inch rackmount. at least the dimensions are correct... it's not pretty, but if you would like a copy, i would be happy to email it to you. pm me. good luck, gb
  19. yes, the midi ports on the Core. took me a few minutes to get MiosStudio configured correctly, but after that, everything was hunky-dorey
