cimo

yep shame on me i can t believe i haven t stated that i ve edited the post, sorry it took me a little while to understand, well to read, cause it is written, that we are talking about pins pairs.It s new to me cause i ve always seen either the pins counted 0,1,2,3,etc or the SR 1,2,3,etc. sorry to insist but i think that the comment is wrong (not unclear) or that the statement is not consistent with the comment. simone

hi AC i ve spent the last 2 hours with Jimp in the.. i ve spent the last 2 hours with BugFight in the chat, he was so kind to guide me on a step to step techno-progressive learning curve that led me to have: -in the first phase all 4 buttons to send MIDI notes and leds to listen to the feedback -then we moved to assign a variable to the pot CC and change the variable with the buttons, light was added in the 7th day now the TODO is using a single button to change among, let s say 4 or 6 different CC for the pot, with 4 or 6 leds to visualize the status, keeping the other 3 buttons as normal NOTE ON/OFF i also need to scale and offset the pot, i am trying to figure out an hardware solution, hardware as modify the pot itself not as a circuitry, but if i fail i ll have to do it in the software. thanks for your help guys simone

_gilles let s say that you want to keep the first 8 channel as audio and the rest as midi, it ll depend on the pcbs underneath, are they grouped on block of 8 faders? and if there is a big single pcb? are you gonna cut it in the middle? no pcb layout will probably be available for the pcbs so are you going to take a shot of the pcb and draw it in gimp? i mean .. have you opened that mixer? have you seen its guts? if not please do it and let us know what you yourself think about this task. it s completely useless from now on to keep on discussing this before we don t get nay tech details about the inside of the mixer, open take a shot or 2 and post back here. and if you are thinking about having the same channel for midi and audio .. ;D simone

hi let s face it, what you want to do is quite a requiring task, and is nearly impossible.Now what s your level with electronics? don t want to put you down with it but opening the mixer and swapping circuitry to retrofit some channel will be a real pita, not talking about redrawing precisely the pcb in eagle, scaling eventual fader mismatching, replace the taper fader for linear, bla bla bla. I assume that if you had the required tech level you wouldn t be asking here in the forum. Again sorry i don t want to discourage you but it s better to know what is possible and what not simone

yeppaaa so far the buttons are working and the pot as well, very easy but when i add this code ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// // This function is called by MIOS when a complete MIDI event has been received ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// void MPROC_NotifyReceivedEvnt( unsigned char evnt0, unsigned char evnt1, unsigned char evnt2) __wparam { // a note event provides 128 different note values (0..127) // in this simple example, each note sets an individual pin // for DOUT pin numbers, see also this documentation: // http://www.ucapps.de/mios/mios_pin_list.txt if( evnt0 == 0x80 || evnt0 == 0x90 ) { // 90 xx 00 is the same like a note off event! // (-> http://www.borg.com/~jglatt/tech/midispec.htm) if( evnt0 == 0x80 || evnt2 == 0x00 ) { // Note Off MIOS_DOUT_PinSet(pin, 0); } else { // Note On MIOS_DOUT_PinSet(pin, 1); } } } i get these errors

mmm, this is what i mean ???

in http://www.ucapps.de/mios_c_set_dout.html it says but i think it should be MIOS_SRIO_NumberSet(4);

hi yes it was all ok but i ve found the problem there was a missing line in the makefile script for the project, due to a copy n paste at 5am in the morning! now i get errors but just because i modified the code and something is wrong. thanks!! now i ll try to create this little app. (it was in the assembler forum before) 4 buttons with leds 1 pot (pedal i want the 4 buttons to switch among 4 different parameters (or midi channels) of the pot and having the leds for visual feedback simone

if you mean add xtra buttons/pot for MIDI purposes then it depends on the physical space available if you mean using the actual knobs and buttons and change the circuitry, yes it is possible .. looks like quite a big work though what can i say... *whack* :o i am tempted to answer "yes short-circuits are always possible and never foreseeable" but i do admit i don t understand your question simone

so i am all set up to build a little application, i am working on OSX and everything seems to be ok, SDCC, Gputils, X-Code.I modified main.c and even got a successful build but there is no syx or hex output.Active target set to "MyProject". what am i missing? simone

.. moving to the MIOS programming © forum

hi since i have to do home brew vias, soldering a small cable from top layer to bottom layer i decided to move the vias out of the button pads, here s a preview:

hola como estan colocados los tornillos que sujetan la psu? con do rondelas? parece una forma interesante para ahorrar espacio en las pcbs. enhorabuena por la FM simone

allora pickit2 meglio di no lascia un messaggio qua nel forum in italiano vedrai che qualcuno te li puo programmare.Io purtroppo oltre a non saper far funzionare il mio mbhp burner non vivo in italia. Se vuoi provare il mbhp burner sicuramente un computer con porta parallela lo trovi da qualche parte Per l inglese non ti preoccupare, quando e se ne avrai bisogno scrivi qua che ti aiuteremo. simone (ho letto che sei delle parti di venezia, io sono originario di caorle)

just be sure that that is the overall measurement and not the base measurement, have a look in the datasheet. simone

hi phineus postman knocked at the door, soft pots received.Thanks, excellent packaging. Simone

hi the pitch between each sid is about 22mm (wilba can you give us an exact measurement?), those ones you showed are 22mm so they should just fit. simone

.. that sounds like "c mon simone learn some C it s just about time.."

i would like to find a girlfriend who spends more time here than i do

ciao pickit dovrebbere essere ok per programmare il boot strap loader (dovrei confermare), se vuoi chiediamo nel forum in inglese AC l ha spiegato cosi bootstrap loader ---- bios (programmare il PIC con pickit, mbhp burner, etc.) MIOS ---- sitema operativo (programmare via MIDI con il PIC nel CORE) MB64(ex) ----- programma (programmare via MIDI con il PIC nel CORE) ti ricordo che puoi comprare PICs con il bsl gia programmato da mikes shop o smashtv evitando di dover usare burners (per me e stato un inutile calvario di vari giorni spesi provando a far funzionare un mbhp burner) simone

i liked to be proved wrong ;D

i am trying to control the MB6582 ! i don t have a control surface, yet so i thought i could use my MK (btw Wilba, what do you think of the MK? i got quite disappointed by the lack of MIDI feedback, pads are nice though) to control every parameter.This isn t ths case.. buh! it s time to get into some software patch editor then simone

eheh the broken link paranoia? :P
