  1. Tidy up my workshop... :wacko:

     

    Mixer desk housing:

    • Front panel area 73cm x 30cm
    • Hand rest: Anodized Aluminum
    • Housing: Inox

    Faders:

    • 18 pcs. per set: Alps (CP K-Type Master, 10kOhm lin., Coreless Motor). Were used in prototype mixer
    • 18 pcs. per set: P&G (PGFM3200, 10kOhm lin., Corteless Motor). Were rarely used in a prototype mixer but need cleaning from dust.

    Jog wheel:

    • 50mm diameter, black plastic with rubber ring, for 6mm D-shape shaft

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    • 1 set includes 1 desk housing, 1 Jogwheel, 18 motorfaders
    • 4 sets to sell (2 x P&G and 2 x Alps)
    • No shipping!!! - Has to be picked up in Switzerland (30km east of Zurich City)
    • 1 set: € 50.- (payable on pick-up)

  2. Da brauchst Du nichts zu machen. Diese Funktion ist im Mackie-Protokoll schon implementiert. Du kannst entweder Kanal weise oder Page (8-Kanäle) weise durch "scrollen". Deine im Attachment markierten buttons würden also nicht [1-8] etc. heissen, sondern [ChUp], [ChDown],[PageUp] & [PageDown]

  3. @TK: I know that the Mackie/Logic control protocol takes up 1 channel, but I have been using a Behringer BCR2000 with Cubase and mapped some controls as Mackie controls and others as normal midi. So at least with Cubase it's possible. Besides mackie control only uses CC# 16-23 the rest is all midi-notes and pitchbend.

    So it's not possible? Or should I change some code in the LC program?

    ... actually it's not one Channel but one port

    The mapping thing (editing the Mackie/Logic protocol) also can be done with Sequoia/Samplitude. Now there it is also possible with your Cubase, I don't understand the problem from your first post anymore.

    If you want to keep all the existing LC-Features/Controls while adding other controls, just take another Core and connect it to another port and map the controls you need.

  4. Hi,

    I think that won't work for the encoders and knobs I use. They really stick together like hell :-) I have to apply something ...

    Cheers

    Why don't you try, what we call in Switzerland "Sewing machine oil" - It's some kind of "clean, transparent oil"? Apply a bit onto a cloth (just moisturize, not dripping) and rub the encoder/pot shaft with it. This leaves a thin, non dripping film of oil, which might just be enough but not too much loss of friction. - Looks like you have to experiment a bit :-)

  5. I also don't know where these 800mA from Alps come from but I never experienced them to suck this much current.

    BTW: Stopping the motor without touch is possible (e.g. something lies on the desk and the fader can't move further). For this case, I'll place a PTC-Resistor into the motor-power feed.

  6. Does it matter if the connection on the DIN is left closed on the rotary switch? So and normal switch is contact then off, but the rotary will be left connected. Will this effect the midi selection in Traktor?

    No, this is no problem but you have to configure this in the software.

    It's no big deal to do it but somebody more into programming can explain you better than me... or search the forum, I remember some posts explaining this.

    Greets, Roger

  7. It's no problem, to power them from the same PSU (BTW: This is the way it's done on TK's shematic too).

    What I'm not sure in your question: "Power directly" - Do you mean without a regulator on the "motor side"? If yes, this would be possible too but you can't "tune" the voltage then, which is very assumable to be needed, for the control-regulation to work smoothly (adjusting the speed of the motor).

    Greets, Roger

    EDIT:

    I wouldn't design limitations from the beginning. You're not sure until testing, if 7.5V will be enough for your faders. Better allow the circuit to run up to 10V on the motor side.

  8. Answering my own question: "Midibox LINK" seems to be the magic word! I just found that site describing the concept of how to chain two or more Core equipped modules. So it looks like the interconnection of the MF V3 and Core8 is made through J11 on both modules (MO to MI). Do I have to take out the 6N138 of the Core8

    Yes, it's the Link function (TK explained it somewhere in this topic).

    6N138 is not necessary anymore but does not matter if you don't take it out.

    And for education purposes: could someone translate the term "TTL Level"?

    Thank you,

  9. Hello Ken

    May be placing the link here: Wiki ... e.g. under "MIDI"

    Do I submit it as a project?

    ... I think in this case this doesn't make sense, since I think you'll keep maintaining your Website and make updates from time to time (... any ADMIN think different?).

    Thanks for sharing, though I didn't study your tool too much yet... but what I read sounds good :smile:

  10. The tkd MVH2-6101 are aprox £50 ( from what i have heard) I wonder if they are more smooth and even and better made? the alps i have were aprox £25.

    ... which Alps are you talking about precisely? N-Type, K-Type or K-Type CP?

    Greets, Roger

  11. -Die Löcher für LED´s sind nicht durchgebohrt.

    ... ich hoffe Du weisst, was das heisst. Je nach leuchtstärke der LEDs, werden sämtliche gefräste Schriften, wie auch die Ränder leuchten (Lichtleiter). - Sieht bestimmt cool aus... aber ob Du das wirklich willst...?

    Grüsse, Roger
