For banksticks I prefer smd components :)

<disclaimer>I have no mbSEQ nor do I know how it works, everything I say is mere speculation, also my comments go beyond the ui-level of design</disclaimer> If the "fast" button is only toggles the speed of the encoder, you might wanna consider using an encoder with a built in button - turn to change the parameter slowly, push and turn to change the parameter fast. Otherwise you'd either have to hold the button with your right hand and turn the encoder with the left (the rest of the design makes it seem like you're right-handed) or hold the fast button with your pinky while turning the encoder. The LEDs under the "step view button are way too close to it. There'll be virtually no panel between them. You typically want to keep the panel > 1.5mm in all places. As ilmenator suggested - it's never too early to throw some real life measurements in there - the 1-16 buttons appear to be rather close to the display, depending on the body shape of the buttons. Solo/Mute buttons: I'd probable go with different colors for the LEDs. Take a look at your favorite DAW - I am pretty sure they have different colors there. Typically, it's incredibly helpful to print the whole thing 1:1, put some button caps and knobs on it and pretend to be using it. That's one of the easiest ways to find weak spots in my opinion. HTH :flowers:

http://www.ucapps.de the sammichSID (<- read that a few times, sammich not Sammitch) is just one of the many possible implementations for a MIDIbox SID v2. Essentially you can take the full Step C CS and remove everything you don't want. Or add stuff. It's up to you.

Check if the encoder pins are properly soldered - if they are, contact Wilba, he'll help you :thumbsup:

Out = odd, in = even. :flowers:

q-p: Nice, glad you like it. Once you get a bit more into it you'll see just how awesome it really is. Regarding the vca bleedthrough - yes that's just the way it is. :console: Johey: It's worth it :)

Friction mainly. The screws pull down the top panel towards the bottom panel firmly holding the side pieces.

Board-only bulk orders are incredibly easy compared to full kits (like sammich* for instance). Hats off to Wilba and Smash for pulling those off :flowers: You're most welcome :-)

The first boards just arrived, so keep an eye on your mailbox :flowers:

Nice build, :thumbsup: Enjoy your new toy!

Topic moved and renamed. :flowers:

Pretty! :thumbsup:

Welcome aboard, Rattanee :flowers: A1: Yes, you can use an LCD for that. You can also use 7-segment displays if you prefer. The forum search should yield some results. A2: Yes, you can usually just leave out the parts you don't want - like the LCD or some button.

...and while you're at it you can give your core a cool new name :)

All boards are shipped and I gotta find a new post office as they run and close the door as soon as they see me now. :unsure: I'll start a new thread and bulk order in the tool for the ~40 spares in the next days.

Yes, the dog_g driver is part of the universal driver. A pretty good hint can be found in mios32_lcd.c: s32 MIOS32_LCD_Init(u32 mode) { s32 ret; // currently only mode 0 supported if( mode != 0 ) return -1; // unsupported mode // initial LCD parameters // can be overruled in APP_LCD_Init() static const mios32_lcd_parameters_t default_parameters = { .lcd_type = MIOS32_LCD_TYPE_CLCD, .num_x = 2, // since MBHP_CORE_STM32 and MBHP_CORE_LPC17 has two J15 ports .num_y = 1, .width = 20, // since most people will (probably) build the SCS .height = 2, .colour_depth = 1, }; mios32_lcd_parameters = default_parameters; // ... [/code] you'd want to override .lcd_type in APP_LCD_Init with MIOS32_LCD_TYPE_GLCD_DOG and the rest accordingly. Hope that helps!

Jep, dem sollte laut Datenblatt so sein. Ist aber nicht kritisch an der Stelle, TK wird sich schon was dabei gedacht haben :whistle:

Yep. Totally. If you have an hour or two, you could totally make an "add comments" & "set status" plugin which I haven't gotten around to yet :whistle: At the moment I gotta do it manually... For your viewing pleasure: http://schickt.de/mb.org/bulk/index.php

Yay. Shipping madness started. :frantics:

No worries, there'll be a few spares, which I will sell after the "regular" order is done :)

Personally I'd prefer Rhodium, or - if you can gets your hands on it - unobtainium. :sorcerer:

Black, natural aluminium, gold, ...

It's not purple. I didn't say it was. It's a slightly turquoiseish blue :flowers:

:thumbsup:

They're not green, red or white :)
