I had this weird PC cable, laying around, i think it is for floppy disks, it s got these connectors that will accept perfectly a pcb inside, so that they could be used to make a multi-pin connection from board to board or even to stack boards on top of each other (base+cs, etc)

If you can add a "Show Winnie The Pooh Movie" button you make my day!

hi I ma looking for a (cheap) Stanton Trackmaster II stylus, possibly for a bargain price, i could buy even 2 if the price is good, i know that your cousin has got eventually some extra needles he s got last year from a fallen box from a truck... Simone

BING! I ve just received this message from the MsPnky team:

Where s the recent posts buttons?

That one has got written in big flashing letter on its forehead "I am not a switching supply"

Me likey

It s even overrated but usually switching power supplies are not advised for synthesizers due to the extra noise they could add, that doesn t mean it won t work or will create extra noise on the output, it only means that it could. Simone

it is, we are diving into artisan work here yes! with a CNC machine crystalfontz make them iirc

what s your problem? debouncing or linking buttons to leds?

Fixed

hi I just wanted to share with you this nice picture of our (Canary Islands, a province of the European and first world country Spain) representant for the central Council of the city (Santa Cruz de Tenerife), aka Maribel Oñate, while she was attending at the local Mac Donalds dresses up as a waiter. The cause was, 20th of November, International day of the child, an ONU event, the collect of funds for blablabla (who cares), with the sponsorship of this very well known corporate. Now anybody could explain to me how does it come that one of our democratically elected politicians could even think or imagine to go to a mac donalds, dress up as waiter and serve big macs right in the very international day of the child? I AM UTTERLY PISSED, as a father, as a citizen, as a MDIBoxer. I am just using this channel to spread the news aka spam, sorry.

yes: i have a dealer about 30 kms from my place in Denmark, it s 50 euro per kilo, but i won t be there before next may.. I gues you can get something in the states, and get it shipped to Canada. I would first try to do as i ve said before: applying many layers one by one, that will also help the diffusion of light. Consider how much your buttons will stick out of the panel and apply a first layer that thick or just a bit more, that will keep the look ok. Remember that cheap silicone gets yellowish with time but i bet you know already. And no no way to get that stuff dry without air. Simone

hi i ve gone this way already, are you aware that after the first layer will dry up, the inner part of the silicone will never get any air, hence won t dry ? (never), it s like if it was still in the can.That s why we should use bicomponent silicone, which cures chemically. But, you can try to do it step by step, like first filling just a bit of the moulding, let cure, add some more etc etc, that may work. Simone

You could finish all the projects i never finished.. :0 just Simone

Isn t offsetting START having the same effect as offsetting a track and hitting start? I don t know how SEQ works but i guess you can already offset back and forth a sequence. Simone

What i call organization! Rule #1 i might have to dig a bit into that .. the dreamy part, gotta read MIOS license first. I am very interested in how you are assembling the frame, keep us informed. Simone

sshhhhh ok it s all worky worky now, i am surprised of how easy was doing the smd stuff, all in all it s even easier then DIL, can you imagine having to solder 32 pads... pfff

hi Thorsten i have the jumpers set to 2 I/Os i rechecked all those pins and they all go to GND. driver is recognized as supposed in the Audio-Midi setup (OSX) Simone EDIT: i didn t have time to check it out but i had a revelation: 0 stands for connected to GND. :-[

My first smd chip went in beautifully, can t see 2 channels though, only 1, anything i should check out? Simone

at 30000 rpm you can afford the risk, if he didn t rip it off with all this pulling and prying...

Use a dremel and make a new hole through the board.

for those ones without lpt port there is a cheap diy project for a programmer here: http://1010.co.uk/avrhid.html

plus metal tie zip (those with a screw to tighten) and 3 screws pointing downward.An 8 mm bolt with some washers and nuts to fix the cd/disk.

.. check out skate/inlines bearings, they can be found anywhere iirc there is a 6mm hole
