This is great !!! i want it do you plan on selling your boards ? if so how much do you want for one ? cheers

Hello Midi Bro's, this thread is getting dusty, what a pity ! In the mbsidv2_sysex_implementation.txt - Rev 1190 i read : 02/a) F0 00 00 7E 4B <device-number> 02 00 <bank> <patch> <1024 bytes of dump data> <checksum> F7 Write a dump to <patch> in <bank> Checksum is 2s complement over the 1024 bytes dump Please can someone help me with the Checksum calculation ? (I understand what is the two's complement, but i'm unsure about how to apply it over the 1024 byte dump. And before anyone complain : this is definitely sid-v2-patch related ;) more soon (hopefuly) Thanks !!

Great news ! I'm glad to see that the good old MIOS8 is not completely forgotten, i still love it quite much :)

Thank you Phatline, it works :)

I'm still struggling to setup my dev env. under Unbuntu 14 (lts) and, i'm facing this problem : when i $ svn checkout svn://svnmios.midibox.org/mios i have no message at all, its just stuck forever, and there's no error, no timeout, nothing. I assumed that the problem was temporary, so i tried everyday since a few days, but no change ... Any idea ? Is there another way to retrieve the svn data ? Also, it would be great to update the wiki application development page, because "Installing GPUTILS and SDCC on Ubuntu 8.04" is a bit obsolete by now :) (but i have no idea about how to do it)

Thanks sneakthief ! You were right, and i must confess that i did not search very hard... In common.mk i found this comment/solution : # if MIOS_SHELL environment variable hasn't been set by the user, set it here # Ubuntu users should set it to /bin/bash from external (-> "export MIOS_SHELL /bin/bash") I also found many answer to my problems here : :)

Hello all, I'm trying to 'make' my 8bit app hex (skeleton), on a fresh ubuntu 14.04 installation, but i have some newbie troubles.

Cheers

Nice ! I'm also very interested in creating a LED matrix with a PIC18F in C ! I'll try to digest the code, and propose a stripped down version when i find some time. Also i'm curious to know if a 16x16 leds is doable, and what would be the best hardware approach to do so ? Any ideas are very welcome :)

Bonne idee ! Je vais faire ca :)

Bonjour a tous, Je suis a la recherche d'un programmeur, ou plutot d'un service : J'ai quelques (3) chip ATMega48 a programmer, et pas de programmeur sous la main. Est ce que quelqu'un de sympa pourrait me depanner ? J'ai quelques bricoles midibox a troquer contre le service, eventuellement :) Merci !!

Awesome ! They look perfect ! Thank you Eptheca :D Those ones looks good too : http://www.ebay.com/itm/30-Sequential-On-Off-On-Off-Tactile-Led-Switch-PB87-/330556338309?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4cf6b17085

I'm looking for those button (5501M11) since quite a long time, and i know they are popular among midiboxers, but, they are sooo expensive that i'm very hesitant to buy them. Price is 4 Euro per switch (on mouser), and i need twenty -> 80Euro, only for switches is quite a big budget ! So my question is : does anyone knows some "cheap" alternatives for a similar button ? Thanks !! http://www.mouser.com/ds/0/E-Switch/XR0107PB-13588.pdf

Are they any active forum users, who worked on this project ? I'm interested in resurrecting it, but i need a little help to start with :) Can anyone inform me about the right DAC to use ? Cheers

I guess it depends of the different levels of intensity you want to get, but i'm sure you can 'dim' a led pretty easily, with a simple DOUT module, by powering the led at different short intervals. And in the end it would be much easier than using a AOUT module !

hmm, i think i found all i needed in http://ucapps.de/mios/clockbox_simple_v1c.zip :) hop

Hello all, i'm looking for a C program skeleton, for a MIOS 8bit application. I couldnt find it in the 8Bit mios download page : http://ucapps.de/mios_download.html (I think it was here a few years ago) Cheers

Hello MB People ! I moved to Sofia in Bulgaria, and i'm curious to know if there are any MidiBoxers around :) Anyone ?

I gave up, as i butchered 3/4 of my gm5 chips trying to solder them to the boards. i may have 'big fingers' but it's definitely not THAT easy :( Any chance that ploytech could solder the chips to the boards directly ?
