  1. Ok, and did you use the JSynthLib from http://dl.dropbox.com/u/9112508/distribution.zip?

    Because when I browse the SVN repository and look at the line 640 of MidiUtil.java it shows this:

    }

    On the 0.20 version I get (that's javadoc aka cannot cause an exception):

    * Convert <code>SysexMessage</code> into a hexa-dump string.

    So either the line in the stacktrace is wrong or you are using a different version.

  2. This isn't a cheap solution (ca. 230 EUR @Thomann), but it has an aluminum case and plenty of space at the right side as if the designers considered the needs of the DIY folks ;)

    There is a downside: You'd have to make your own power connection as it is fully USB powered. That could be tricky.

    Another idea would be a Doepfer solution: Fatar keyboard (e.g. 49TP9) + MKE + cables.

  3. Schrittmacher canceled the order because of personal reasons so we are now organizing them in smaller groups. There is an upcoming Germany/Austria mini order which happens when we reach 10 cases. We are currently at 6. Seven if you'd like to join and take one case. Please contact the user flip then as he is the organizer.

    Edit: 10 is reached. flip is ordering the cases now.

  4. Maybe it's time to semi-officially take over custody of JSynthLib since nobody else but the Midibox community seems to want to keep it up to date.

    JSynthLib has always been Open Source. If someone wants to contribute code he can do it anytime. Just subscribe to the JSynthLib mailing list and ask to be added as a developer. It's as simple as that.

    Anyway in the last weeks there has been a revival as a group of new and not-that-new developers has taken action. One of them is trying to contact Thorsten regarding the changes (were there any?) mentioned here.

  5. What's the status? Did we miss their vecation?

    I'm wondering why Schrittmacher doesn't answer. He was online two days ago:

    At least he could tell us when he ordered and when he expects the cases. His last posting here

    was 2 months ago. :unsure:

    I sent him a PM, maybe he didn't subscribe to this thread.

  6. This is for Wilba's PCB that uses the more or less standard TL1100F160Q switch

    Thanks.

    For documentation purposes I'll link to the Wilba thread:

    Wiki: http://www.midibox.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=wilba_mb_seq_pcb_bulk_order?

    I'm already in the PCB bulk order list and subscribed to the thread, :blush: so everything is fine.

    Just another question: Will you also make matching back panels? I'd like to have blue front and back panels. :yes:

    Are the 2 mm panels solid enough?

  7. Anyhow, if anyone is interested, this design could also be used in the desktop case, and would represent a decent saving over the 3.0mm panels.

    Definately interested, especially the blue front panel looks quite good. But maybe we should wait for the desktop case bulk order to be finished?

    Has a fitting PCB with the frontpanel stuff been made yet? (It's hard to keep yourself up-to-date if you don't have the time to look at the forum frequently)

    Which push button types does this one use?

  8. I can put your name down though if you are interested.

    Would be nice, thanks! :flowers:

    @nebula:

    When I tried it I've been redirected to the Google login page. I have blocked the Google cookie, too, so that may be the reason it didn't work (I did that on purpose).

  9. I just asked for the interest in this. Changed the question a bit (and added 'someone') to make this more clear.

    Is someone interested in something like this?

    Did I put this in the wrong sub forum?

    If there is interest, I would do this:

    - Design a pcb or two

    - Buy a prototype board

    - Stuff it and test it

    - Make a groupbuy for the PCB and eventually the desktop case + frontpanel

    I would need (for the desktop case):

    - Someone who is able to help with the housing

    If there is no interest I think I'll sell my Papareil DS8 PCBs and make my 909 BD PCB standalone without a dedicated sequencer.

    My motivation to do this whole project only for myself is very low.

    It looks like the MB808 standalone sequencer PCB project is still alive so the third option is to simply use this PCB

    if it will be finished. It lacks the bus board + trigger routing option but obviously this can easily be made on Vero board or something like this.
