Ok then. If you guys get up to the required min. order from ploytec, I'll happily run the order for you. Unless of course TK wants to do it ;-)

This is just the pcb.

There. I fixed it.

The behaviour you suggest is essentially whatany CD/mp3 player does if you press |<< in the middle of a song. Figures.

Nope, no need to ground them.

It is kinda hard to tell, but the soldering looks a bit dodgy in places - some pins seem to have too much solder other appear to have (next to) none. If you can borrow a camera from a friend and take some more good pictures (especially of the backside) or go right ahead and resolder the connections that aren't really pretty. Again, focus on the first PIC/SID pairand try to get that working.

Yes, you can. No, I wouldn't. Just in case you need/want them later. That's a total of 12 cents in parts. Related quote: <SmashTV> See how 10 cents in parts have got you chasing your tail?

No. It sounds wrong, not broken. Current MIOS version is installed? Which PIC?

If you actually don't have a ground plane than it's a surprise anything works at all as all the ground connections would be missing. Essentially to me your post reads: "I might be missing a few traces also the firmware is probably not installed correctly - what could be the problem?". My guess is - you're missing some traces and the firmware isn't installed correctly. How about you fix and validate those two things - in that order? A missing data line between the pic and the opl might cause sonically interesting effects as the parameters never get "fully" or "correctly" set. If the software is broken in random places it may also lead to interesting effects. Really hard to tell what exactly the problem is with so many options :-)

Um. This is a gm5x5x5 pcb spares bulk order. If you guys are trying to find people wanting gm5s - maybe a new thread might be in order?

It's really hard to guess what your problem is unless you show some actual source and the exact compiler error. Anyways, here's a working version if what I guess you are trying to do, maybe that helps. typedef struct { int foo; } foo_t; foo_t bla[14]; void doIt(foo_t *data) { data[1].foo++; } extern "C" void APP_Init(void) { doIt((foo_t*)&bla); Log("%d", bla[1].foo); // outputs "1" doIt((foo_t*)&bla); Log("%d", bla[1].foo); // outputs "2" }

Bourns also make those illuminated pots and they're available @ mouser and rs.

Unless you're already committed to the 3.5mm jack's I'd recommend considering banana jacks. I've used 3.5mm ones in my modular at first but they're almost all flimsy pieces of sh*t. The tiny nuts holding them in place tend to not grip tight enough or wear out...

Hmm, yeh that might be a good idea :D

The filter would sound different/muffled/non-filtery/wrong.

See, I told you. :yes:

That's essentially what continuity mode does. Just faster. And with audible feedback, which is awesome :-) Make sure you measure continuity in the right direction though, otherwise you'll get plenty of false positives. Also, I'd test one core + sid pair at a time. Remove the other SIDs and PICs. Get the first one working. Then continue.

Short: GO! Long: If that's not possible with the current NG firmware (I don't think it is), it's definitely something you can do with some additional programming or maybe TK will like the idea and do it :shifty:

As long as there's demand I'll obviously have more boards made :-)

Welcome aboard, sound warrior :flowers: No worries, it does not. At all. The general vibe is a diy-approach indeed, but there's absolutely nothing wrong with helping people or even doing the whole thing for them if they have a legitimate reason for asking (lazyness and "it seems like too much work" are not legitimate reasons). I am a bit far away to physically help you, but I'll do my best to help around here :-) I am assuming you might need some software modifications done as well, so it would probably be best to list the features you do need and do not need or other ways that the box can be improved to suit your needs better.

Braintu: Please don't manually add line breaks to your post. This may be fine for your screen but it's most annoying on bigger and smaller ones.

This might well be a soldering issue that only happens after a while when things get warmer. Can you share some decently sized, non-blurry pics of both pcbs (top and bottom sides)?
