nILS

Man those look like renders :w00t:

* nILS shuts the door and swallows the key.

This is fairly entertaining and probably going to turn into a irc.freenode.com test as well - atm there's 3k users on the #sparkfun channel, tendency +1/s :D

As of t = -2h 10m http://downforeveryoneorjustme.com/www.sparkfun.com says: "It's not just you! http://www.sparkfun.com looks down from here." I guess that's a server-cluster-test fail. :)

<disclaimer>Please ignore my admin/mod status for a sec and read this as a reply from a regular member:</disclaimer> <rant> I most certainly hope this is just a language barrier thing, but your attitude is really starting to annoy me. Seriously? I mean, come one. Where? You have 7 posts. 5 of which are in THIS thread. The other two are random "ooh this is cool" posts. Seems you don't have any idea how much is written here every day. How nice of you to accept that others aren't reading everything. The difference is - you want something from us - hence it's common courtesy to do your homework first and check if the question has been asked before. And with the stamp thingie you'll have less cables? lol. </rant>

Welcome aboard Q.C.! :flowers: Another proof that the midibox concept is working - you got from 0 to 2 mb6582s w/o a single post, congrats! About the LCD issue: It's freezing after a while and not instantly so possible problem sources might be heat (unlikely but possible) there's also been problems with some of the C64 PSUs so that might be worth looking into.

Pretty! :)

Just a thought: Use a timer in the PIC and some extra code to make a PC speaker style beep. PWM comes to mind or simply toggling a PIC pin at audio rate.

Whee! Congrats everyone :flowers:

Welcome aboard taximan! There is not. There won't be. That's how everyone starts out here ;) Absolutely not. That is the point of midibox. You *learn* to make one, and bit by bit learn what does what and why and how and so on :)

Reaper FTW.

Quite likely. Shorten the cables :)

I used an Edding 750 Paint marker. Works well.

If you get help, you get it for free. I'll volunteer if you can't find anyone local.

- Both channels have an amazing SNR. - One of the channels has the phase inverted. - The same channel pretty linear filter response, which the other doesn't - Frequency range is also a nice hint

OMG it's Flu-In-A-Can! That's just mean!

fmod, bass or sdl are lowlevel but doable approaches.

They probably got lost during the forum migration or were hosted externally and vanished. Thermal paste makes for an even better heat transport from the SID to the heatsink is not required though. Generally heatsinks for SIDs aren't really required.

Hehe :thumbsup: nILS packs it up and goes back to coding.

Must have been pure imagination as this was a mono mp3 of the stereoSID emulation, which does in fact support stereo effects via emulating 2 SID chips for instance, you also most certainly haven't heard downsampling effects or overdrive, which are indeed features but not audible in the clips :)

Sounds like it's simply drawing too much current for the PSU. Do you happen to have another one? Measure the current consumption that might answer that question.

My guess: A Bleep Bloop Ffzzzzz Chrrrr Box? Since it's supposed to be a x-mas gift to the midibox community, there's no info and just some random clips of this thing that I cannot reveal yet cause it's just sooo cool to go around with random tidbits of teasers, especially if you turn the volume all the way down in the video for no apparent reason so you have to turn your stereo way up and risk blowing your speakers when some windows notification happens at the same time as you're watching the incredibly awesome and totally random teaser.</rant>
