  1. ahhh the joys of electronix

    That was one of the first things my mentor showed me... back in the 60's.... he says, "Look at this schematic"  ... ( i don't remember what it was...)... and i say.. ok... i do.....

    he points to some obscure point on the schematic, then traces his finger...... all the way over to the other side of the schematic...

    I say... 'ok, and?'

    he says, 'that is the same electrical point in a DC circuit'

    Of course i said 'BS' or the equivalent, i was only 12 or 13.

    but guess what? he was correct.... that cleared up schematics ... not really sure they had autorouting back then, but yes... turn autorouting off. Seems to work for me with Eagle.

  2. When I joined this group... back in .... '03 i think it was... I thought I could make a million bux off of this idea... then I started to read the site.  At this time, a few years down the road, there is NO WAY I would ever attempt to benefit monetarily from the intellectual property contained herein.

    [Tanstaafl] 9:27 am: oh yeah, i was following that thread.

    [Tanstaafl] 9:28 am: my first Seq is a prototype, and once I get everything correct, i will be giving it to a buddy (one that actually

    performs live, as apposed to me.... i only do studio and am not really a musician)

    [Tanstaafl] 9:29 am: he might reimburse me for the parts, but the assembly is a labor of luv.... hee hee hee

    [Tanstaafl] 9:30 am: i luv the smell of solder in the morning.... smells like..... MidiBox Victory!

  4. Stryde..

      sorry, could you point me to the drawing for the dims of the clear buttons again... didn't download it (I think we did that on the chat and I didn't save it) and am ready to make the sub-structure for the encoders and switches... etc.

    thanx

  5. Hey Stryde!  put me in for:

    200 x 1S11.16.0 (Clear cylindrical)  .40c

    Still trying to make mortgage for this month  :'(, but I think I can come up with 100 bux USD by the end of this week, if the boss lady says ok.  ;)

    Thanx for all the work on this!!

  6. I would sure like to see something like this in a 'round' form factor for the button tips.  I have pcb switches with a built in green led, but am wanting to add the red leds and make the 'dual button / led' matrix for Seq V3.  This gizmo would be perfect!  if it were round.  I'll do some searching, but if no luck, I have not built my front panel yet and could use the rectangular, and may add a couple hundred to the next order. I'll keep checking back for next ship date.

    have a better one!

  7. You will have to get Cores programmed with different ID numbers, and then use MB-Link to chain them together... it's not difficult to accomplish.

    Use the 'change-id' utility found on this forum, or order your Cores from the vendor with different ID's. 

    Then you tie them together via J11 on each Core module and use the "MIDI FP" menu selection on the first core, and "MIDI EP" on the last core in the chain.  My 'MoogModularV Midibox' uses this method without problems. 

    Oh, you also remove the OptoIsolator from the second Core... almost forgot that!

    good luck,
