Hi so I think that if the projects gets funded i ll use MIDIBox platform linked to vvvv with OSC/MIDI, I ve reduced the number of total outputs (for mental sanity purposes) to 352, each will drive a final stage of 48v at 20W, I know that makes a total of 147 Amperes, I am planning to buy half a dozen of Power supplies so that I can split the lines evenly. Lights: I d go for Halogen 12v light (group of 4 serially connected) but that fraction of second it takes to get to full brightness and back to off is a serious bummer, LEDs would be better but I need something that can spread the light rather evenly around. For the final stage I am probably going to re-use an already working system I used a couple of years ago: 2n3055 and a basic transistor to trigger the final stage. Is it possible to use a matrix system for the final stage too, or am I supposed to use one stage for each output? About modulating the power of the output will I be able to do it with PWM avoiding using Analog OutPuts? tx Simone

Hola Jefe! tx for the offer, at the moment what "worries" me is what s the best solution for the final stage hardware wise, 1000 2W drivers is a lot of components.. I would probably go for some already built hardware if the price is reasonable.. it s not a problem for 16x 8x8 led matrices but it could be for the final stage.. dunno.. Simone

fixed.. no led walls, the leds will placed in plastic cans..

You thought you got rid of me! Not so easy boys... So today I woke up and decided I want to drive 1000 1W bright leds, what do you think ? It would be digital On/Off triggering and my software platform of choice would be http://vvvv.org . Seems like a huge task, and I d probably go for some already built hardware driver, any idea? How do you see otherwise the idea of building a 1000 digital outputs with MIDIBox ? Anybody tried something similar? So how s everybody doing ? Cheers from Tenerife! Simone

Hey, haven t forgot about you good people.. and haven t been sitting in my balans stol doing nothing all this time, so here you get a few videos n links about what I am doing now... all in all there is always a stm32 beating inside this chest of mine.. and some more stuff here: http://vimeo.com/iolab/videos Happy new year ! Simone

Top priority on my wishlist for almost useless gadgets that ll make you look cool have your cat and children have fun http://blog.gearbox.me/prototype/new-ball-prototype/

I am Italian, it comes embedded by default (see our Prime Minister)

y como decia mi abuelo "hombre pequeño, gran p...." ;)

... and to El Senor Frijoles of course

... to myself ! ;)

nay! solo se refería al tamaño del notas.. :)

I think that "natural disaster" stands for the level of organization of the society and the employment scene here in the islands... So UPS made it to my front door, now you would expect a dark brown van with a guy looking like Jim Carrey (o maybe Tom Hanks, all in all we are in island in the middle of the ocean), anyway, the guy came with a hippy-like old Renault van and looked more like the local dealer then an UPS employee. He s got my parcel but no money to change.. I sent him back to where ever he came from.. now I understand the meaning of "natural disaster" ...

mm so I ve ordered some components from Mouser.. have a look at the first line, where it says STA CRUZ DE TENERIFE (that s where I live...) sounds scary...

Hi has anybody ever come out with a solution to control the ssm filter bank (Seppoman project) with a simple stereo pot? You know it s time to put them to work somehow..

... actually my work is only the projections, I haven t painted anything..
