Hey Artesia, Nice SEQ design and nice valve amp! Glad to see that there are still some tube enthusiasts left here in the full digital MIDI world ;D I'm restoring a tube amp for a classic hammond organ at the moment. It's a M-100 and looks like on theese pictures: http://theatreorgans.com/hammond/dutchhammondsite/m100.htm (Not my site and not the same amp I'm restoring! But it is as filthy as the one on these pictures.) One of the high voltage capacitors had a short and so the transformer and some resistors ended up in smoke. While waiting for the new transformer I'll replace the caps and clean the housing. This amp has a very interresting design with a tube rectifier and some special circuitry for the "percussion" feature of the organ. Tube amps rock! Raphael P.S.: For all the people who have no experience with tube amps: Be careful with the high voltages inside the amp. Some operate at 800V! And the caps will hold these voltages for a long time after swithing the amp off.

Hmm, I don't know. According to the datashet (http://www.spelektroniikka.fi/kuvat/ec11.pdf) your encoder sends 18 pulses per turn(not 36). So you should get 72 INCs/DECs per turn...

Do you have connected them to the right SR? According to your setup you're using SR2 and have connected the encs to pins 4+5 and 6+7.

Yes.

You`re speaking of POTX and POTY. The inputs from POTX and POTY are mapped into the SID's registers. Since the SID is only written to by the core module (with a serial shift register), the pins aren't usable with the MBSID.. BUT: The core already has 10Bit ADCs, so why making it complicated by using the SID? Just wire the joystick to J5 of the core. This has already be done by some people.

This is no crystal but an oscillator and there are 3 legs connected (GND, +5V and the Output). A normal 2-leg crystal will not work for this purpose!

There have been some complaints about centsilble recently :( Please look at this thread: http://www.midibox.org/forum/index.php?topic=5611.0

Yes, it`s ok.

If it is the one on pwx's datasheet, it will work.

I have lots of them too. Back in the 60ties and 70ties you could buy photo films in thees capsules. Today they're made out of plasic.

Hab den Oszillator gestern schon abgeschickt (und Dir ne PM). Raphael

My cousins house - It was set on fire by a overheated PSU. Wasn`t very funny. Fortunately nobody was in the house when the fire started. Ask your local firefighters. Overheated electronic devices cause lots of burnings.

This picture will show you where to connect the modules: http://www.ucapps.de/mbhp/mbhp_midibox64.gif (It's from the MB64 but MB64e connects the same way)

That's OK. In my MB64E all my 36 switches share one common ground (One wire routed from switch to switch). No problem. Raphael

Huh. Sorry, I missed that.

Woher kommt denn das, was Du da gezeichnet hast? Ein normaler Oscillator ist meist so aufgebau, wie es hier beschrieben ist (Pierce-Oszillator): http://www.knap.at/de/pdf/kat_q/oszimic.pdf Die 5V sind zur Versorgung der Inverter nötig (Die machen daraus dann auch das gewünschtes Rechteck). Meiner Meinung nach lohnt aber das selbst bauen nicht. Ohne Oszi würde ich auch gar nicht erst damit anfangen. Wenn Du wirklich keinen auftreiben kannst, schreib mir ne PM. Ich habe hier momentan noch 2 passende für den OPL rumliegen. Da ich wohl erst in ein paar Monaten dazu komme, mit dem MBFM anzufangen, kannst Du gerne einen haben. Raphael

I have no experience with them. But consider that their prices are in australian dollar (A$). Raphael

According to this site (http://www.kubarth.de/sid/sid_revisions.html) ther were 2 manufactoring sites for the SID. I only have MOS types.

Der erste dürfte die einfachse Möglichkeit sein: http://www.knap.at/de/pdf/kat_q/oszimic.pdf http://www.knap.at/de/pdf/kat_q/kosch.pdf http://www.knap.at/de/pdf/kat_q/pierceos.pdf Und noch ein paar Tips dazu: http://www.fairchildsemi.com/an/AN/AN-340.pdf Hm, ich hatte meinen damals direkt von Maxim. Als Sample (Ich rate normalerweise nicht dazu, Samples zu bestellen, aber das Ding ist sonst echt schwer zu bekommen.)

Hey, hey, hey, it was just a joke!!! Just thought it was funny when I came home from the bar last night... ;D (I'm from Germany and my English isn`t the best. But I think 'something' is correct for what you wnted to say.)

Don't worry: 'something' is written correct ;D ;D ;D (Also the rest.)

Just upload the new application. The old one will be overwritten. P.S.: Do you raelly need to post this question on 3 threads ???

Just upload the new data. E.g. for updating MIOS to the next version, just upload the new MIOS with MIOS studio. Same thing with applications. Raphael

What are your problems? Any details? Nothing. The application starts as soon as the core is powered. For details about how to use the interconnection test please read the description in the main.asm file. (Upload MIOS first.) There is also a new walkthrough for SID debugging: http://www.ucapps.de/midibox_sid_walkthrough.html

Hijacking other threads is not nice (especially when your asking the same question in a new thread at the same time): http://www.midibox.org/forum/index.php?topic=5784.0
