Bookmarked! I will keep an eye on this. Btw, the SoundLab synth looks intresting, especially the portable one with a built in speaker. What are your opinions on it? Woud you recommend others to build it? Best Wishes DRÄPPEL

Hi! I'm planing to build a MBSIDx4 with a full control surface. I've seen people use joysticks and i thought it would be a fun idea to try out, however i don't want it on the actual control surface so i was thinking of having it as a external joystick that i can plug in when i want to use it, perhaps through a d-sub or something similar. My question is: Is this possible? If i understand the joystick design correctly i will need to get a AIN just for the joystick, since joysticks use pots and not encoders right? Would it just be a matter of connecting cables from the AIN to a d-sub port in the MB and doing the same on the joystick(pot -> d-sub or is there anything else i need to think about? I also have another idea of extending the joysticks functionality by adding a button on it that will toggle through the diffrent things i want the joystick to control ( lfos etc, does anyone have any other ideas? ). So basicly i want to know if it is possibe to have a external joystick and if it is i want to know if the toggle function is doable. Thanks

I don't think anyone is complaing, Roger is just being selfish :) (on the topic of what is fair i would say that 4 people with 1 chip each is more fair than 1 person with 4 chips since the first alternative is fair for 3 people but the last is only fair for 1, thus it is the most fair alternative to distribute the chips equally). Besides, no matter how many chips each person gets i think everybody are happy that you're doing this at all instead of selling them on ebay just like you said. <3

I'm not sure if this is what you meant but a good idea would be to distribute the chips so that everyone gets 1 before anyone gets 2, and so that everyone gets 2 before anyone gets 3, for example: say your friend has 16 chips, this would mean that the first 5 people on the list would get 2 chips each and the the following 6 would get 1 chip each.

I would like to buy 4 but i'd be happy to just get my hands on 1 if there aren't enough available.
