I don't know for DJ use. Last year I did some tests with the high quality Alps Master fader by using a crank arm. The fader was loaded by about one stroke per 2 seconds. After 6 hours the fader was kind of blocking in a way, that the arm almost couldn't move the fader anymore (the motor was a pretty strong gear motor). When I stopped the load and continued after about 10 minutes, the fader was easy use again like before. Now, DJing is a much heavier load than a stroke every 2 seconds, but the problem was not the taper. I think the faders you used were carbon tapers (much cheaper) and not conductive plastic. Greats, Roger

I think they all look ugly :P I always mount those panel mount connectors behind the pannel, so the screws are nicely in a counterbore of the pannel Greets, Roger

building a ribbon controller for AC Sensorizer
Screaming_Rabbit replied to bosone's topic in Design Concepts
... how about the resistance-taper-element of a 10k linear (100mm) fader used in the base and a foil which is well conductive on top (e.g. a copper foil laminated/glued onto a piece of rubber sheet)? I think there is copper foil available with a sticky side, just like scotch tape. Greets, Roger -

... good old 2"-Multitrack tape. - The carrier tape is nice fat and has some stiffness. Greets, Roger -
Du müsstest die Core Boards redesignen (mit einem Layer kommst Du auch nicht durch). Zudem sind die PLCC Sockel schwieriger zum Handlöten (enger). Hast Du die Sockelpreise auch noch mitkalkuliert? Greets, Roger

Sollten nicht, sind einfach in einem PLCC-Gehäuse (44 Pin), bei welchem 4 Pins nicht angeschlossen sind. http://ww1.microchip.com/downloads/en/DeviceDoc/39564c.pdf Greets, Roger

Midi controlled power switch........
Screaming_Rabbit replied to Drkovorkian's topic in Design Concepts
... if it really is a problem, put a capacitor over it. (value: trial & error with a KO) Might be that the inertia of the relay is high enough. Greets, Roger -
Midi controlled power switch........
Screaming_Rabbit replied to Drkovorkian's topic in Design Concepts
Yes, that's no problem. I don't know your experience with electronics and mains power, you just write you have never done something like this. I'm telling you: JUST BE CAREFUL!!! ... and let it be if you don't know exactly what you're doing. This is not just like "hot rodding" your hair dryer. Greets, Roger -

connection for 3 cores midibox lc help!
Screaming_Rabbit replied to lucho_asd's topic in MIDIbox HUIs
... sorry, I don't understand the question. Greets, Roger -
... yes. No AIN needed No problem performance wise but you would need 3 cores (depending on your host software), since you need 3 MIDI port connections if you want to use the HUI protocol to use 24 channels. What Hostsoftware are you using? Does it allow to configure 24 channels to one Midi port? You could do it with a MIDIBox 64 just using plain MIDI protocol. The HUI protocol is not really needed, since you're having no Channel label displays and faders (don't know about the time diplay) ... not really programming needed, just configuring. ... forget it - DIY Greets, Roger

Hi bozak The Infinium faders are nice and what I like, is the adjustable tightness of the slider. But what is it really what makes a quality linear fader get worn out? - Is it the taper? No, it's the slider part. The slider does not work smooth anymore and gives the user a "bad feel". But exactly this part will be worn out with Infinium faders too. And I still didn't see the 1024 step resolution type around yet. The available type has a resolution of only 128 steps. I'm not shure about the wearing out of the taper in DJ use, since the fader gets used much more often and heavyer than in a conventional downmix situation. ... just a few thoughts to think about.

... vermutlich befindet sich Deine Box im "ChannelStripView". - Dort werden nur Parameter-Namen und -Values angezeigt. Du solltest also die View-Mode Taster mal anschliessen und ausprobieren. Oder bekommst Du überhaupt keine Namen angezeigt? Greets, Roger

Heya Smash "count me in for one" (PICs included) Thanks and greets Roger

Now I see what you tried to explain. ... the magic comment to understand was: "...tempting to try to use your master fader as a monitor volume control..." (though I don't know anybody doing this) I mainly got confused by the statement "to set a fader to any dbFS" since you can't adjust a fader to FS. - dBFS refers to level and not to gain. ... confused me too: I'm not too good informed on semi-pro equipment anymore but I thought "Big Knob" is analog. Is it a Rotary controlling the Master-Fader? :o - I don't know. How ever; I now understand what you mean and can agree. Greets, Roger PS: Thanks... no dithering etc. - That for I was reading books in the early days of digital technology. - Explaining facts not assumptions.

:o That's sounding pretty esoteric. :) I think ADC, DAC, Bit-depth (fix/floating), internal gain structure, Master-Level and -Gain setting got mixed up a bit in this statement. Greets, Roger

... are you shure about that? I didn't try this but I think it would work with Sequoia... and some changes in the LC-Software Greets, Roger

... die bist Du schnell wieder los im Forum. Ich kenne mittlerweile die Alps Specs nicht mehr ganz so gut aber ich meinte, dass Du den N-Type (den, welchen Du hast) gar nicht mit Dual-Taper kriegst. Du müsstest dann auf den K- oder V-Type wechseln, da Du den linearen Taper für die Steuerung noch immer bräuchtest. Greets, Roger
