True ! That's the behavior of an old transformer. ;) This is when the varnish change because of the long time, then the transmormer wires have gain some space, so they are vibrating at the local frequency, that make that 'hum'. There's nothing you can do, but change the transformer. This said, it should be no danger for you hardware.

??? well, hmmm, ... what are you talking about ? What is the "Midin board", and what is "stop tabs" ? I'm sorry but I dont have a clue what you're talking about, am i the only one ?

http://www.myspace.com/sidplexibox Look at the pics in the user profile, there's photos of 9 differents SID-NUXX-based synths :o :(

non, pas vraiment, enfin je veux dire, j'ai pas cherché, mais clairement, MBHP n'est pas adapté pour réaliser un sampler. Il faut pas mal de puissance de calcul et de ressources pour manipuler et stocker des echantillons audio, ce que le pic n'a pas.

Ben... peut etre que tu n'est pas sur le bon site ? ;)

This is great, i cant wait to get mine :)

;D ;D ;D I want to hear some more ;)

maybe i'm stupid, but i like the idea of 8 sid's playing unison, and that's how i plan to use it (especialy for pwm bass) ;D

where is my post about aout and ne555 ??? out of topic ???

or maybe this ? http://www.robot-electronics.co.uk/htm/usb_i2c_tech.htm

Does anyone tried to do anything with this ? http://precma.com/download/AE_TCP_I2C.pdf ;D -- changed : oops, sorry for the bad link, i mean : a ethernet i2c interface ::)

Hey!! all this is cool ;D Well done folks !

I dont have a very precise idea, but i like to experiment, learn about ic2, and use the midibox for other purpose than pure midi application (like robotic or domotic). :)

thanks !!!! those lil boards looks great ;D

Avec une midibox, on peut aller très loin, bien plus loin que le midi en fait, donc la question que tu dois te poser c'est plutot "est ce que je vais faire l'affaire" ;) (je plaisante) Si tu ne compte utiliser qu'une seule entrée analogique, tu n'a pas besoin de module AIN. Le module Core de base (ou le pic si tu préfère) est pourvu de 8 entrées analogiques. Le module AIN est un groupe de "Multiplexers", qui sert a multiplier ces 8 entrées. (par le nomdre de composants installés sur la carte en question) Par contre, pour jouer les notes, j'ai bien peur que tu sois obligé de passer par un module DIN ! Pour le temoin d'activité midi, tu n'a pas besoin d'un module LTC. Un Trigger de schmidt inversé (74LS14) sur la sortie midi fera l'affaire. Bon courage !!

Does anyone have any suggestion, to connect an external "clock", to the core ? I'm thinking of a Hour/Min/Sec clock, So an application could "know" what time is it, (then trigger an action at a certain time) I think it could be very interesting, but dont know yet how it could be done ;)

I love both, but maybe i prefer the first one, because it look more "serious" ^^

I want one ;D I think a SIL socket is just perfect !

thanks Michael, Yes, it help a lot !! :D this topic helped me too : http://www.midibox.org/forum/index.php?topic=7779.0 ;)

Hello i would like to know how it's possible to delay an action with MIOS, without if possible, the use of the clockbox :) Let me explain : I would like for example to call a function when i push a button after, let's say, one second. Or to be able to clear the screen after 5 seconds of midi unactivity. I guess i have to count some kind of system tiks, but i have no clue where to look at ! I hope this is clear, thanks very much for any help !

didn't you see my script ? http://jambonbill.free.fr/midibox-kb/Arp/chords/ in fact it's pretty simple : You select a root note, a chord, et voila ! It's easily editable, datas look like this : "5,8,0,0,0";// Major "4,8,0,0,0";// Minor "8,0,0,0,0";// 5 "5,8,11,0,0";// Dominant 7th "5,8,12,0,0";// Major 7th "4,8,11,0,0";// Minor 7th "4,8,12,0,0";// Minor Major 7th "6,8,0,0,0";// Sus 4 "3,8,0,0,0";// Sus 2 "5,8,10,0,0";// 6 "4,8,10,0,0";// Minor 6 "5,8,11,0,0";// 9 "4,8,11,0,0";// Minor 9 "5,8,12,0,0";// Major 9 "4,8,12,3,0";// Minor Major 9 "5,8,11,3,6";// 11 "4,8,11,3,6";// Minor 11 "5,8,12,3,6";// Major 11 "4,8,12,3,6";// Minor Major 11 "5,8,11,3,10";// 13 "4,8,11,3,10";// Minor 13 "5,8,12,3,10";// Major 13 "4,8,12,3,10";// Minor Major 13 "5,8,3,0,0";// add 9 "4,8,3,0,0";// Minor add 9 "5,8,10,3,0";// 6 add 9 "4,8,10,3,0";// Minor 6 add 9 "5,8,11,6,0";// Dominant 7th add 11 "5,8,12,6,0";// Major 7th add 11 "4,8,11,6,0";// Minor 7th add 11 "4,8,12,6,0";// Minor Major 7th add 11 "5,8,11,10,0";// Dominant 7th add 13 "5,8,12,10,0";// Major 7th add 13 "4,8,11,10,0";// Minor 7th add 13 "4,8,12,10,0";// Minor Major 7th add 13 "5,7,11,0,0";// 7b5 "5,9,11,0,0";// 7#5 "5,8,11,2,0";// 7b9 "5,8,11,4,0";// 7#9 "5,9,11,2,0";// 7#5b9 "4,7,11,0,0";// m7b5 "4,9,11,0,0";// m7#5 "4,8,11,2,0";// m7b9 "5,8,11,3,7";// 9#11 "5,8,11,3,9";// 9b13 "6,8,10,0,0";// 6sus4 "6,8,11,0,0";// 7sus4 "6,8,12,0,0";// Major 7th Sus4 "6,8,11,3,0";// 9sus4 "6,8,12,3,0";// Major 9 Sus4 (it's just to have an idea, please do not use those data's, all values here should be (value-1))

Dont hesitate to do it, it's allready working even if it's dead simple atm. This same hardware can be used with no changes for your SidBox later !!

Heheh, i was very busy as usuall... :) They are tons of great ideas here, and most should be implemented. If we aggree on the "base" code i allready posted, then yes, you should (as anyone who like to) start to write code. (i did not much since last post) but i think as it's more or less a colaborative work, we should be very carefull on few points like to : - Keep as much comments as possible in C files. - Separate function as clearly as possible. - Dont think there is a "normal" way of use. - Keep it simple (to use) - Then, dicuss about the new code. (we can post changes on this topic, or in the wiki page) - And of course create "releases" (and keep all versions available) I have pretty much room to store files on my website if needed. Dont hesitate to ask me for 'free hosting'. What do you think ? I'm affraid we now have to start to aggree on a "base" control surface to input values and tweak the app ? ::) ( i still like the step A cs idea ::) ) And now about the last posts : Yey, i'm happy that pretty much peoples are interested and have ideas and opinion to share :) First, i LOVE the delay idea :) I also like the "chord generator". Got some nice code here : http://jambonbill.free.fr/midibox-kb/Arp/chords/index.htm ) The sync : of course, it must be synced to the incoming midi clock events, but i think it has to be enabled manualy better than automaticaly, because of the "live" thing : When i play it live, i dont want to have any lag when i hit a chord, so in my case, i prefer to have the choice to enable the "auto sync".

I like the "step A" idea, as it's enough to tweak deeply, simple, and allready documented. http://ucapps.de/midibox_sid_cs/2x20_enc.pdf (encoders) http://ucapps.de/midibox_sid_cs/2x20_b.pdf (buttons) Anyone else ?
