  2. SEQ4 Case Bulk Order 2012?

    in Bulk Orders

    Posted

    Click on 'More reply options' and you get the preview instantly. About quoting, it is not working hassle-free for me either. E.g. if I start editing the quote first, I usually cannot add my own text

    below the quote any more - the cursor just doesn't get there...

     

    As for the preview I just found that well-hidden feature, yes :rolleyes: As for the replies, that's why first I enter some dummy characters after the quote before doing any formatting changes not to lose the cursor... Okay, enough complaints, back to business  :rolleyes:

  3. SEQ4 Case Bulk Order 2012?

    in Bulk Orders

    Posted

    Shuriken,

     

    The problem is that the LPC board is 10cm deep. So if you mount it to the back, the LCD connectors are touching the CS pcb. With lower hexbolts and not mounting it to the backpanel could work.

     

    Not sure how orange_hand exactly did it. His pictures don't tell :wink:

     

    It might also be fixable by just making the panel at the front a little bit taller. By the look of things, there is room for the whole construction to change angle without changing the other panels.

     

    if you're referring to http://www.sequencer.de/synthesizer article the pictures do tell that he used STM32 core, not LPC, as can also be seen from answering the questions throughout the article.

     

    Some time ago I tried to make the measurements to accommodate LPC core in the box but never finished that (I still have the A3 paper with http://www.heidenreich.de/english/products/group_06/variant_b/skizze_pultgroessen_variant_b.pdf printed in my laptop bag). Making the front slightly taller will probably cause the frontpanel height to change since it's angled, maybe by a fraction but maybe enough already for the panel not to fit (and Heidenreich doesn't use the panel size a manufacturing parameter, alas). So you would need to lift both H as well as H1.

     

    The problem (for me, at least) was that http://www.ucapps.de/midibox_seq/mbseq_case_measures.pdf shows all the dimensions (e.g. 35,78mm from bottom to the front-side top screw but this doesn't seem to be the H1 dimension (that seems to be till the front hinge top if I can say from the enclosure sketch). If I got it right you can't re-create the order based on the sheet - you're still missing the H1, the other (H, B, T) seem to be there assuming the 'B' doesn't include the side panel thickness. But maybe TK can reveal the number and we could simply add 5mm to both H1 and H and have the job done...

     

    My two cents, if anyone can prove me wrong I'd be happy to hear that my concerns are not really concerns and would be first one to get the case (two, actually)  :rolleyes:

     

    P.S. Am I the only one missing 'preview before posting' in the upgraded forum engine and the only one missing lack of GUI when quoting? :sad:

     

    Hope this helps,

    freddy

    Is there any MB6582 window left by some cancelled order, or maybe someone bought a spare I could buy?

     

     

    1 windows for MB6582 for me plz

    Guys,

     

    thanks for your interest but, alas, no orders were cancelled and no MB6582 spares are left :sad: I'm not sure if there would be enough interest to place another another Schaeffer order (i.e. 10 minimum for the better price) but I'm considering ordering a panel for the 16x4 BLM at the moment. When I'm that far and have the design finalized I might throw few MB6582 windows to the order, I'll definitely let you know if that's the case (and you'll be 2nd and 3rd on the back order list just following MOONRAKER).

     

    I'll let you know, cheers,

    Adrien

    I've received nice window!

    I received two SEQ windows from freddy the other day. They look great, thanks!

    This means there are two left for anyone who needs them.

    Exactly, latigid on :-)

    Thanks for letting me know, glad the windows were received with no issues at both (at all, actually) destinations!

    Thanks a lot, just drop me a pm if its on time to pay for it

    Regards , Ingo

    Ingo,

    I'm afraid you missed a whole rest of the thread - both guys responded, paid, had their packages sent and received them. All have left now is 4x MBSEQ and 1x MBFM window just like stated in the above message :hmm: I doubt there will be any next MB6582 window batch, I received no requests apart from yours :hmm:

    Hope this clarifies it,

    Adrien

  8. I'm selling 30 original CSG-6582A SID Chips! No Fakes, fully tested, working!

    in Fleamarket

    Posted

    @orange_hand: Don't laugh! These are the ultra rare 6582A! If they are tested thoroughly, I'll buy the whole bulk! But I'm curious, what testing routine EightBitHead was running. For 1980EUR I'd like to see a detailed testing protocol. Not that they turn out as rebranded 8580.

    Come on, guys, let the guy just try to sell the chips without making the comments :rolleyes: I do agree that they're overpriced but if someone pays for it just let him breath. Maybe he'll drop the prices in a month or two if he's unable to sell the load - it seems that few of the chips (well, one) were sold on eBay already so all we can do is wish him good luck and hope for price drop!

  9. (WTB) Datawheel for MBSEQ - (Albs DK38-144)

    in Fleamarket

    Posted · Edited by freddy

    A local company in my country also sells some similiar ones: http://www.sos.sk/?str=371&artnum=70943&name=alps-dk-45-114-a-6 - it seems that it's Albs DK 45-114 (though it's called 'Alps' instead of 'Albs'), specs can be found at http://www.albs.de/img/dk45-114.jpg. It's not the D-shaft shape but since there is no big pressure on the data wheel it's okay (I'm using these knobs). The only disadvantage is that ít's not as ergonomic as DK 38-144. The price is 2.28€ pp, price drops with higher quantities. I can arrange a mass sell if there is interest.

    Edit: these are the same as gslug has posted above, missed the exact type while reading, sorry for duplicating.

    Hth,

    It's been busy around here and I forgot to feedback so... thanks a million Freddy, it's a perfect fit though I'm not looking forward to dismantling the control surface again!

    Yep, be careful not to break any of the JB-Welded spacers (like I did)! :rolleyes:

    Arrived today ! Thx, it's perfect !

    Thanks for letting me know, guys, you're most welcome!

  13. SEQ4 Case Bulk Order 2012?

    in Bulk Orders

    Posted

    Okay... now we have the question: do people want a 17" or a 19" case? Core32 or LPC17? I'd take a 17" Core32 case for myself, but I'd also like to know what others want.

    For me, 2x case for 17" LPC17, too. According to TK the LPC17 fit is just a cosmetic issue (LCD connector strain relief doesn't fit), if that's really the case I don't really mind that. It would also be possible to re-take all the measuring and make the front and back panel slightly higher (3-5mm), but... :rolleyes:

  14. > 4 chan midibox FM

    Posted · Edited by freddy

    ::) I'm not sure I would need more, but I'll see! (Maybe I'll play the same sound detuned on multiple channels at the time, it's one of the only way to make nice sounds with my Kawai K5, and I need a lot of channels for this)

    Hi,

    Reviving an old thread, did you ever find a need for multiple FMs? And did you solve it either via J8/J9 switching or similiar way MBSID works (with software re-design)? I'm not saying I'll ever need more than one FM but the 2U box just seems sooo empty with only a single core/fm.

    Thanks,

    freddy

    Guys,

    first 13 packages were sent to: rosch, NorthernLightX, Jojjelito, Lamouette, Dnode, Gtxdude, Arkay, Shuriken, Verpeiler, orange_hand, gslug, toadstool, latigid on, I certanly hope I didn't mess the shipments :rolleyes: Sorry about kHz-tone, I read the PM just after I sent the packages, so you'll be in the next batch (I guess tomorrow morning).

    Update: Packages to monokinetic and kHz-tone sent out this morning, still missing shipping address from skunks (but we've already had a PM exchange yesterday so I hope to finish the shipment by today).

The packages were thicker (and bigger) than expected because of the cardboard I put in in order not to bend so easily, so the shipping is 1.45E within Germany and 3.45E abroad (no handling :rolleyes:), I hope this is okay. I've skipped the shipping from Schaeffer to me, that was a constant and since I was getting panels (and LCD windows) myself there is no need to pass the burden to you. I'll reply to your PMs regarding total or send a direct Paypal request if you sent me your Paypal address. Still no reply received from Monokinetic and skunks. Since up till now no end-date for PMs was set let's make it a week from now, i.e. PMs received on 30/10 (and onwards) will you put to the end of the waiting queue just following MOONRAKER:

    Hello again,

    Iám looking for a MB6582- Window (Wilbas Box /Standard PACTEC)

    count me in for one, if it fits !

    Sorry, Ingo, it doesn't - I just ran out of MB6582 LCD windows :ermm: but you're the next one in the waiting queue if someone doesn't reply with the address - still missing some PMs. Maybe a good start for another mass-order? :rolleyes:

    More or less, just kidding for now, currently I'm busy enveloping the windows, I'll send them tomorrow and wait for a feedback before starting another one (if at all).

    Sorry if it won't work,

    Adrien

  23. [WTB] Sammich button caps

    in Fleamarket

    Posted

    I need 23 button caps for my MBFM project; I'd like to use rectangular buttons like on the sammichSID and -FM. I know both Mouser and Digikey carry them but I'd rather not order in the US because of minimum order value, relatively expensive shipping, and unpredictable import taxes. x0xsh0p.de carries them as well but I mailed the guy a week ago and am still waiting for a response, so that does not give me a good feeling either.

    So, if you have 23 of these babies you want to part with, or are ordering at Mouser or Digikey soon and don't mind including a few buttons for me, please PM me! :thumbsup:

    If those are the same buttons as used for Wilba's MBSEQ I have tons of spares (not used for my MBSEQ). If you agree I can simply add them to the LCD window shipment I'll be sending next week. Deal?

    I'll be running out of MB6582 and MBFM windows soon (one left from each), good job guys!

    Just FYI, all the windows and my panels were produced and are en route (as of today) to Frankfurt/Main, Germany. So, as of Monday, I probably will be able to make first shipments, please start PMing me with the shipping addresses. Once the package is sent (and s&h is known) I'll be replying with the total amount to be sent to my Paypal account.

    Looking forward!
