Ansonsten Benutze ich meistens Lötpaste (CR 44) zusammen mit nem kleinen Tischgrill. Das funktioniert prima, geht schneller und wird sauberer als Löten von Hand. Bei Bedarf kann ich Dir dazu noch mehr Tips geben.
... da wüsste ich gerne mehr.

Why going to the university to study psychology?
By reading and analyzing all these replies before and after the "turn over", one can find out so much about the psyche of the human being. :o - Very amusing
@Wilba: You should think about building up a sect... e.g. the "Holy-SID-Disciples". You would have the talent to make a lot of money as the sect's guru. :D

Does anyone know where to get or how to make touch-sensitive encoders similar to Digidesign Icon series controllers and other high-end controllers? If these are not available, maybe they can be made by using some sort of proximity sensor technology. Thanks.
... just use the encoder's ground pin not for ground, but to connect to your touch sense input (certainly a conductive knob is needed). Any encoder with metal shaft should basically work.
If you don't handle the sensing in the PIC, you can use e.g. http://www.qprox.com/assets/Downloadablefile/qt102_2r3.05-15437.pdf

Thanks, Maybe the MIDIBOX LC is a little too advanced
... not necessarily, if you stick to the original design
Im ordering my kit for the core this weekend with the pre-programmed PIC. I'll work and test that before I do anything else.
... best practice. You can deside later, on what app you wanna go.

Will I need alot of programming knowledge in order to complete this project?
... if you stick to the original design, you don't need any programming knowledge and even if you do small changing, it's not really programming, more like configuring on text basis.
Can this Project have a USB output or does it only use MIDI Out?
... you can add a GM5 MIDI/USB module. So from the outside of the finished box, it's connected to USB
How do I power the Core Module?
... elctricity? - There is no H2 engine developed yet... but who knows ;)
Check ucapps.de/MidiBoxLC for all those details. - It requires some reading to understand the system and then, most of the question you will have, will be answered.

You seem to be missing the point.
Everybody can set points... so it seems that they're missing the points of each other :D

I don't suppose you have links to them? :)

Not entirely right.
Water has its greatest density at about 4°C.
If you heat it up or cool it down even more, it's getting less dense again.
Ever thought about how fish/frogs can survive in a frozen lake? The water just above the ground as always ~4°C

Edit: Typos...
... did I make a statement on what the anomaly of water is? :o
But what you write is not exactly true. It is true, that this happens but only by further cooling below about 70K. - But this is minimal. Above about -200°C, ice is behaving like most other solid materials.
Getting a lower density by cooling further below melting point, happens only by applying pressure and lowering the melting point by that.
-
... water is the only substance that increases its volume when in solid state.
Wrong! Water is the only well known substance behaving this way... in the last 10 to 20 years, other anomaly behaving substances have been discoverd (I think it wa about 3 or 4 other ones).

... i wonder whether the heat could damage the LED.
No, it will do no harm to the LED

Search the forum, there already is a thread about this. As far as I can remember, the problem was using it in a matrix and scan all the LEDs in a reasonable time.

... and my new hobby is recording.
... and when you have spent some more time with your new hobby, you'll find out that you don't really need the master fader for recording/mix down.
Your 8 faders are better "invested" by using them for your channels. And when once you really need a master fader, you always can switch your banks all the way to the end and have the master on your faders (depending on your host application).
Greets, Roger

All the pics I could find show plastic fader caps as well, which sort of suggests they are not touch sensitive.
... how about conductive plastic, like most pro-mixers have? ;)

Hallo Alex
Ich nehme Dir die restlichen je 3 DIN/DOUTs gerne ab.
Obwohl ich im Obeland wohne - Bitte per Post senden.
Sind CHF 55.- für die 6 Sets inkl. Porto o.k. für Dich?

I'm impressed first of all because its all diy, software & hardware.
... absolutely!
Yes the Soundcraft has it, but the limited screen real estate wouldnt be able to represent well all the plugin interfaces on the market.
... I have no problem with controlling plugs by mouse on the project screen. If one is mixing for a living, he normally uses a decent mixer. If I work with a Studer Vista console, I really won't use plugs on EQs and dynamics while mixing, and that's where channel alignment and controls-layout familiarity is exactly what I need.
The encoders over the screen is a new idea i guess but to be honest i personally wouldnt even say it was a good idea
Would make more sense to run the encoders round the outside of the monitor giving yourself more screen real estate or allowing a smaller screen for the dummy plugins
... always depends what your app needs

Sorry, I don't have enough time to check the datasheets right now, but so far I can tell you, that Pin9 on the 74HC is one of the serial outputs and not an input.
Greets, Roger
Perhaps I fill find the time to check the datasheets, later tonight when I got home.

Layers I think. I was thinking of having 4 main sections of pots, two banks of 4 and two banks of 2, so in an ideal world I think I would have 1 button that changes the function of pots 1-4 , 1 that change 5-9, 1 for 10 & 11 and 1 for 12 & 13. Is this easy, doable? In fact if it is and I work out how to do the ableton feedback then I could really jazz up my current controller.
... I think this won't be possible without programming. But hey... what you don't know, you can learn ;)
Switching whole layers wouöd be implemented in MidiBox 64 and can be edited without really having to program.
I don't see, why getting a feedback from Ableton should be a problem. I don't know Ableton at all but from what I read in this forum, this should work and configuring the DOUTs can't be called programming.

2, I dont want to use any DOUTs,
... why not? Switches described as below will be more expensive.
My thought on this was to use some sort of SPST Latching switch (is that right?) with an inbuilt LED (presuming they exist) when the actual mechanics of the button cause it to become lit and don't rely on any processing. Is this a sensible way to go, if so what kind of button am I after?
...it's probably the worst way to go and it contains higher risk of inconsistency. - I still don't see why you don't wanna use momentary switches with software controlled status feedback by LEDs.
1, I only want 16 pots so is it possible, and if so how, to have a button that when pressed forces pots to send out midi on a different channel, thereby giving me the possibility of doubling up on pots as many grooveboxes do? ( I am no programmer so do please explain in newbie terms) For instance to have a FX1 controlled by 2 pots and when depressed the pots will cnahge parameters on FX2 leaving one untouched.
... do you want to switch in layers or does every Pot shall have it's own function switch?

That is pretty common knob and you don`t have to sand anything off as there are clear caps in various colors.
... but the price for this pretty common knob is not very common! - That's fu...g cheep for a collet knob.
-
The Master track has only one fader (you can't use two of them in some sort of stereo audio way.) Thus, 9 faders and LED meters are recommended. (MB Gurus, correct me if I am wrong.)
... depends on your host software. Sequoia can do it. - There are many hosts, which extend the Mackie protocol to their need.

[GESUCH] Motorfader in DE
in Deutsch
Posted
Kleiner Tipp für den Selbstbau von Top-MFs:
Alps Masterfader-Type (10k lin - ohne Motor) kaufen und mittels zwei Magnetspulen und Verlängerung zum Slider (in welcher ein Neodym-Magnet lagert) einen Linearmotor anbauen.
Vorteil: Die schwierigsten Teile - saubere Slider-Führung und Leitplastik-Bahn sind schon vorhanden.
Zusätzlicher Vorteil gegenübder den teuren Alps K-Type Motorfadern (sogar mit Coreless Motoren): Die Rasterung des Zahnriemes fällt auch noch weg!
Fazit: Mit etwas handwerklichem Geschick, bekommt man für ca. €20 einen absoluten Top-Motorfader - besser als Alps K-Type oder P&G PG3000.
Risiko: Möglicherweise ist der magnetische Linearmotor viel zu schnell für die MidiBox/PIC-MIOS MF-Steuerung und schlicht und einfach nicht regelbar.
Nachteil: Kein Touch-Track... dafür findet sich aber einfach eine Lösung (use your brain ;))
