suital from the sequencer.de forum was so kind to create a single PCB for the MIDIbox CV project. The thread (in german) for this was: http://www.sequencer.de/synthesizer/viewtopic.php?t=18474 More information in english can be found here: http://www.midibox.org/forum/index.php/topic,11656.0.html Please ask questions about the PCB there. I'm taking over the bulk order of the PCB in bundle with the necessary MAX525BCPP+. One set includes 1 PCB and 2 MAX525BCPP+. As I have no PIC burner the necessary PIC is not included. Instead of the difficult-to-get MAX6007B you can use a LM385-2,5. You'll only need to re-calculate some resistor values. Costs per set: 35,20 Euro (old info) (Without shipping/package costs) The whole thing works only if I can sell exactly 50 sets! (Because of packaging units) If someone wants to take part in this buld order please let me know here how many sets you will take. Deadline is the 30.06.2008 at 20 o'clock (CEST). List (29.6.2008): sonicwarrior: 3 sets amp1ron: 3 sets Doug Wellington: 4 sets Jaicen: 1 set Madox: 2 sets StormB: 1 set snykehd: 2 sets xarolium: 3 sets Left: 0 sets Edit: I'm located in Germany! Edit2: Here is the requested pic of the PCB (3D model): Edit3: Page (currently only in germany): http://www.sdiy.de/de/projects/midiboxcv.html

Did I miss something? I thought we'd have to wait until the part kits are visible in the SmashTV shop. ???

No, I didn't got any files. I thought nebula would show some pics here. ???

Should be 17 Euro as Finland is a member of the EU and I think the package will be below 5 kg (I hope so as I don't have a scale).

Thanks. If you'll include the AOUT option I'm definately interested if the resulting design is not too bad. ;)

I have an Evolution EVS-1 for sale which may be interesting for the ones who cannot build a MIDIbox FM. A Windows editor is available at: http://www.deepsonic.ch/deep/freeload/evs-1_edit_0.2b.zip As an alternative there is an editor for Atari. The location is Cologne in Germany. I have a user manual in english (printed) and german (original) and the original PSU for use in Germany (I have no idea with which countries it is compatible :-[) This synth is extremely underrated and definately better than the Yamaha TX81Z. Asking 60 Euro + shipping.

Ok, so it seems there are currently 2 projects with some results and with different aims. I'll definately want the AOUT options for my analog synths, but 2 projects seems already enough and it would take at least a year for me to have something to show. @nebula: Do you already have a frontpanel layout or something to get an idea?

I was thinking more of basic version (without the matrix or optional matrix) like the original TK design. I'm not sure if I like that splitted design. ???

Man, this thread is really old and I had no time since then to work on this project. :-[ Has anyone started a similar project in the meantime? As I read through the thread I was a bit scared how offensive my posts back here were. And how not related and kind of mad. ;) I think I was not really sure if I should go the modular or the single PCB way. Yes, that makes sense. In the meantime I've got a bit more experience and would also go for one PCB for the frontpanel and eventually even try to fit the whole SEQ on it (don't know, if that would work without SMD 'though) to reduce the flat cable mess or layout a backend PCB with all the needed stuff on it.

Got mine today, too. Wilba rulez! :)

25% of 40 US $ is 3.8 US $? ??? (This is less than 10%) I'm afraid that shipping the bad panel back and having a new panel send again will cost much (I already paid 11 US $ for shipping & PayPal fees). Would have been cheaper if Altitude would have checked a panel before sending them out. Sorry, but I'm a little pissed off and I would not say that 40 US $ is to cheap to get nice panels of such a small size when I think of the nice and perfectly silkscreened panels which Purusha sells (including 19" cases) in even smaller quantities. Have a look at the Purusha cases here: http://www.prodigy-pro.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=19428

Mine, too. :)

??? I paid 40 US $ (w/o shipping costs).

Got mine today, too. :)

Guter Tip, muss ich merken mit den Computerteilen. :)

Fuck, I've missed this groupbuy! >:( Like I missed any other MB-6582 groupbuy except for the PCB itself and the panels. :'(

I didn't got any feedback from WK-Mechanik so far. :( Hope I didn't get lost in a SPAM-filter.

Thanks, I requested an offer for the panels for a minimum of 25 pieces.

Jetzt raff ich das: Im Schaltplan ist D8 (nicht D5) als D3 eingezeichnet. Wegen CalrEQ: Im Original sind NE5532, TL072 und LF353 drin. Bei der Gyraf-Version werden LM833 vorgeschlagen, alternativ NE5532. Die Original-Bestückung kann man nicht wählen, da die Verteilung der einzel Op-Amps (es sind ja Dual-Teile) anders ist.

NE5532, es gehen aber auch LM833.

Guter Punkt, da hab ich bis jetzt noch nicht gar nicht dran gedacht. :-[ Öhm, wo jetzt genau, ich finde es irgendwie nicht. Japp, is ja noch im Aufbau. Die Sachen für Einsteiger muss ich erstmal schreiben. Dazu hab ich aber leider momentan noch zu wenig Ahnung von Schaltungen, da müsste mir jemand helfen (gibt Credits! ;D) Hmm, also nen einfachen Verzerrer gibt's hier: http://diy.musikding.de/content/view/28/8/ Allerdings wird die Schaltung nicht wirklich erläutert. Ich muss überhaupt erstmal ne Linkliste erstellen. Gibt noch viele ToDos wie man sieht.

Yes, but I need the .fpd file for that. He needs a Corel Draw file as input. Errors may evolve if he draws everything new. :-\

Hallo, ich habe jetzt endlich mal mein Projekt sdiy.de angefangen: http://www.sdiy.de Die Seite ist noch im Aufbau, aber immerhin gibt es schon ein bißchen Inhalt. Ich würde mich freuen, wenn Ihr hier ein bißchen Feedback gibt, z.B. was für Tips ihr für wichtig haltet. Erwartet aber bitte nicht zuviel, da ich nicht meine ganze Freizeit für die Seite opfern werde! ;)

When the panel order exceeds 20 it would make sense to order the panels with silkscreen. E.g. WK-Mechanik in Germany takes .fpd files and makes silkcreened panels from them.

I'm also in for a groupbuy of both PCBs (if there is also one for the front PCB). Also on the frontpanel if there will be one. I have only 2 SIDs (8580) but maybe I can get more until I stuff the PCB. :)
