Look at the hardware options site: http://www.ucapps.de/midibox_seq_options.html With a 2x16 display onla 4 steps will be visible. Menu is layouted for 2x16 anyway. Raphael

EDIT: offe was faster ;D But anyway: Yes, this should work anyway. No, it`s no one-to-one wiring! Please take a closer look: http://www.ucapps.de/mbhp/mbhp_4xsid_c64_psu_optimized.pdf After MIOS is loaded, try the interconnection test (follow instructions in main.asm) BEFORE plugging in the SID.

Thats OK. One 5V connection is enough.

No. Once again: There is no connection to 5V. There is only a connection between theese two pins.

Your asking: I don`t know. ;) But posting the same problem in 3 threads isn`t clever. That's for shure. See your other threads: http://www.midibox.org/forum/index.php?topic=5640.0 http://www.midibox.org/forum/index.php?topic=5710.0

Why a second thread? As I told you in the other thread, the connection between IC1:5 and IC2:5 must remain. Raphael

What is the optimized board? Your own design? Ehmm..., the connection from IC1:Pin5 to IC2:Pin5 should still be there. The resistor just connected these pins to +5V (Pullup) and can be left out. So just connect the two pins 5 and everything should be fine Raphael

Schon gesehen? http://www.ucapps.de/midimerger.html

I think you`re mixing up resistors (the parts with the couloured lines) and capacitors... Well, to decode the coulour line code, use this: http://www.dannyg.com/examples/res2/resistor.htm

Use the optimized one! It's optimized for best signal/noise ratio.

Nice to hear ;D 8) ;D

We're talking about this circuit (http://www.ucapps.de/mbhp/mbhp_4xsid_c64_psu_optimized.pdf). Right?` You don't have to touch the transformer. Ther round connector on the right side is connected (coming from) to the transformer. That's OK. Just reuse the 2pole switch from the C64. (In fact it`s one switch which can switch two poles). The second connection is GND which is connected via J2 of the SID module (blue in the schematics). Just follow the schematics ;) The circuit is so easy (Just one rectifier, one regulator and some caps) that you can buid it on a breadboard without any problems. Raphael

No, the debounce setting is hardcoded and won't be overwritten by reloading your dump. Raphael

Look at the MB Sysexloader (http://www.ucapps.de/howto_tools_syxloader_18f.html). If you choose as filetype MB64EPatch, only the patch will be overwritten and not the program memory. But I would prefer the Bankstick solution. It's really cool if you can switch several configurations via the LCD menue.

MBSEQ can be used as a MidiClock Master. (48-255 BPM)

Could be. Every mechanic switch bounces. So try some higher values. If it's always the same button it could be also a bad solder joint. 1. Store your setup to a bankstick. OR 2. Make a SysEx dump and store the dump via MidiOX. After codechange just do a sysEx upload again. Raphael

Ich wäre an einer SID Frontplatte interessiert.

http://wiki.midibox.org/ --> Where to order This is a DIY project. If you don't want to build it by yourself please don`t cry for any help in the forum later. Try to build it on your own and you will get a lot of help from the community and experiance for yourself. And always remember: You live and learn ;D Raphael

See the "Where to order" page in the Wiki: http://wiki.midibox.org/ Look for SmashTV and Mike. They sell preburned PICs.

Where is the problem with detented encoders? You can change the encoder type in mios_tables.inc. Raphael

No, don't make a bridge. Just leave it out like mentioned in the schematics.

Thanks, Smash for clarifying (and sorry Lide for missleading you)! I didn`t knew this. All my lin pots are marked with A (or without any mark). So A and B markings are like most other "industrial standards" - worthless :-\

This should work. This is the MB64e standard configuration. (SR5 to SR8 for Encoders; SR1 to SR4 for Buttons)

No. Have you really read the MB64e page? I doubt again. From the MB64e page: http://www.ucapps.de/mbhp/mbhp_midibox64e.gif (16 Encs) http://www.ucapps.de/mbhp/mbhp_midibox64e_full.gif (64 Encs)
