Ooops, just the post a little further down the page asking exactly the same question. Must read before posting in future.... Actually, I think my post is slightly different in emphasis, at least. Alex http://www.toneburst.net

Sorry 'Speak & Spell' ;) Anyone thought of/tried controlling any of the old Texas Instruments toys from a MBCore? I have no idea if such a thing would be possible, but I'm be intrigued to know if anyone has considered it. Maybe something like the MBSID board would be possible, whereby the main chips of a one of the toys could be rehoused on its own board and controlled by a MIOS application. Something like the MIDISpeak board John at highlyliquid.com makes that allow individual phonemes and vocal fragments to be accessed from the ROM would be very cool, + the option to create glitchy circuit-bent-type noises by sending spurious data to the controller chip. It's all pie-in-the-sky stuff, but anyone any thoughts? Alex http://www.toneburst.net

Another newbie question, I'm afraid: what are the advantages and disadvantages of machined-pin DIL IC sockets vs. standard (cheaper) alternatives (other than that they look cooler)? Alex http://www.toneburst.net

Thanks for that moebius. I will do a search now. Cheers, Alex http://www.toneburst.net

I'm thinking of using a joystick as an assignable controller on my MBSID. Would something like this be up to the job? http://onecall.farnell.com/jsp/endecaSearch/partDetail.jsp?SKU=1148304 I guess I'd need an AIN board too, since it's resistance-based, and I don't know how I'd tackle to MIOS setup side of things. Any thoughts, anyone? Alex http://www.toneburst.net

Cheers pay_c! Alex http://www.toneburst.net

Hiya, just a quickie. 10k*5 resistor networks for DIN1X: commoned or isolated? Alex http://www.toneburst.net

Just got the first sound out of one of my SID boards!!!! I'm very happy :) Still loads of work to do- need to get the Mike's Core up-and-running. I put a new optocoupler in it and put the PIC (now with MIOS installed) back in the socket. I still can't upload anything to it, but I now get MIDI Frame Errors, rather than nothing except Unexpected Upload Requests. It's not rebooting all the time, anyway, so it's definitely progress! I'll recheck solder joints and component values again later. The working SID board is the one I got with the kit From Mike, which I just put together this evening. For symmetry's sake though, I'd like to get the Mike's MIDIShop Core, and SmashTV SID working too, of course. Unfortunately, that means desoldering and removing all the pins from the SID socket I managed to break while testing voltages a while back. I'm going to need to invest in some desoldering braid, I think, because my desoldering pump isn't doing the job. I'm so glad I've managed to get a sound from it at last!!!! Alex http://www.toneburst.net

Ah, that's good advice Carsten. I didn't realise that. So you mean put the IC in a socket, then put that socket into the socket soldered to the board? Genius.... I'll add a spare socket to my little (but growing) list. I will try to track down one of these. Sounds very very useful. I've been using a screwdriver pushed underneath the IC, but it's quite hard to lever the chip out without bending the pins. I always treat my SIDs with respect and wear the ceremonial gloves, hat and cloak when handling it ;) Alex http://www.toneburst.net

Hi Wilba, That's about the size of it. The 2nd kit still just sends out upload requests, but the second one seems now to work fine. I've managed to upload MIOS, the SID application and the SID Interconnection test app so far. I have another spare optocoupler now, so I will try that in the Mike's board, though I don't expect it to make any difference. I'll also try swapping the optocouplers back again, as you suggest, just to see. I've been using 2 different PSUs (a 5v 'wallwart' one and an Optimised PSU/C64 brick one), but both seem to work with the SmashTV board. I'll definitely try this, though I'm getting increasingly nervous about removing and reinserting the PIC chip- those pins are so delicate! I'm at work at the moment, but as soon as I get home, I'll try the tests you suggest, and let you know what I find out. I may even pop home at lunchtime and give it a try... Thanks once again for all your help and encouragement, Alex http://www.toneburst.net

One little word has made me a very happy man! That little word is glowing on the screen of my pink LCD screen right now.. That little word is: "Ready" Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeee :) I swapped over the optocouplers from the two boards. Board #2 still doesn't work, so it's either a soldering/component error (not unlikely), or the optocoupler that came with the SmashTV kit is dodgy. I must admit I found Mike's kit a little more challenging to construct than the SmashTV one, which is nicely labelled with all components. I'll recheck all the component values and solder joints again. It could well be I used the wrong resistor or capacitor somewhere in there.... As for the SmashTV kit, after I'd swapped the optocoupler, and put my one PIC back in the socket, the MIOS upload worked the first time I tried it! I guess it must have been a dodgy optocoupler, or maybe just something that removing and reseating both chips fixed. I still can't understand why the loopback test worked perfectly, but the main thing is I've finally managed to get MIOS on that bloody chip! I'm a little scared to try uploading the SID application now though, just in case it's stopped working again..... Fingers crossed. Thanks again for all your help Wilba (and everyone else who responded to my plea for help). I'm so happy to be able to move on to the next stage, at least with one of my two boards! Lets see if I can get SID on there now, wish me luck, guys! Thanks again! Alex http://www.toneburst.net

Hi Wilba, I picked up a book on beginner electronics a while back, which I keep meaning to make a start on. One of the reasons I haven't got round to it yet is that all the exercises require a breadboard! Looks like I'll have to pick one up. They're not too expensive, I don't think, and as you say, they'll come in handy for all sorts of things. I don't currently have duplicates of most of the Core board parts (except for the replacement optocoupler I bought), and some of the resistors, maybe. I do have a 5V 'wallwart' PSU though, so maybe I don't need the 7805 (I removed it from both boards because I was initially using the Optimised PSU and original C64). I'd just need to pick up the caps, oscillator + another PIC w/ bootloader. I have another PIC on the way anyway, so if that doesn't work in either of my current boards, then I may do the breadboard thing. It would be useful to me as a exercise in translating circuit-diagrams into working physical circuits, anyway (you wouldn't believe how long it took me to put together a working Optimised PSU based on the diagram). So, am I right in thinking that if the crystal oscillator wasn't working correctly, the PIC wouldn't work at all? It's definitely sending out the upload request string on both boards. It won't do much else, but it seems to do that fine.... :( I'll swap the optocouplers around when I get home and see what I can find out from that and get back to you. Incidentally, could the issue with my LCD module be related somehow? I know I did connect the LCD incorrectly the 1st time, so I wouldn't be surprised if I had damaged it, but it may be related to my MIOS upload issues. Cheers, Alex http://www.toneburst.net

Hi Wilba, thanks for getting back to me again. I have another PIC on the way from Germany (should hopefully be delivered in the next few days), so I can test that when it arrives. Unfortunately, what I don't have is a known-working core PCB. Is there anything I can do to test the oscillator/clock on both boards while I wait for the new PIC to arrive? I only have a basic multimeter, being a relative newbie, though I may be able to get access to an oscilloscope at work. Re. the MIDI interface, I've tried several different MIDI interfaces, on several different computers, and I've used MIOS studio, MIDI-OX and Sysex Librarian under MacOS X and Windows, so I'm reluctant to believe that none of my interfaces work.... Thanks again, Alex http://www.toneburst.net

Could be. You can apparently take LCD modules apart and replace the polarising film, to make change pos. displays into neg. ones, for example. Or maybe fix this issue... Never tried it though. Alex http://www.toneburst.net

OK, I've done the loopback test again, as you suggested Wilba. Both boards 'pass' ie if I send MIOS to the out port, I get exactly the same back at the in port, byte-for-byte. Works in MIOS Studio running under Windows and MacOS, incidentally. I haven't tested all my MIDI interfaces, but it's probably not worth doing that now. So, this means that the the PIC should be able to send and receive MIDI on both boards. Something must be different on the 2 boards though, as I get different error messages. I'm using the same PIC on both boards (forgot to order the PIC from Mike when I put in my order for the v.3 boards, though I have one on the way now). The PIC I have currently is the one that came with the SmashTV kit, and is indeed a PIC18F452, with the bootstrap loader already burnt (I don't have my own PIC burner). I built the SmashTV kit entirely from the parts provided, though the other board has a replacement optocoupler which I swapped-out on the off-chance that this might help. Should I wait for my new PIC to arrive, or are there any other tests I could run? I know the PIC is getting power on both boards. I also get a MIDI output from both boards, and when connected, the LCD works on both, though unreliably, as mentioned in previous posts. I ran the loopback test without the LCD or SID modules connected, by the way, as you suggested. Thanks again, Alex http://www.toneburst.net Incidentally, HL-SDK, I like the sound of Ghetto Bass' ;)

Hi HL-SDK, it's good to know you've manage to upload MIOS using an M-Audio interface. I've tried several different ones now, so I'd be really surprised if ALL of them don't work- must be a PCB/PIC-related issue I think. I've been using MIOS Studio (though for some unknown reason, it won't work on one of my computers). It does make things nice and simple, though MIDI-OX gives you more options in terms of setting buffers etc. I'll give the little test Wilba recommended another go and see what happens. I guess the reason I've been concentrating on trying dofferent MIDI interfaces and setups at the computer end is that I know more about computers than about electronics! To my untrained eye, the soldering on both PCBs looks fine, but it does look as if there are major problems with at least one of the boards and possibly with the PIC as well. The loopback test will help a lot, I hope. I suspect the fact that I've soldered a few MIDI-related boards in the past that have worked fine 1st time (including some quite cool ones from http://www.highlyliquid.com) has given me a false confidence in my soldering abilities :( Maybe it's the jumpers on the bottom of the v.3 board... was never completely happy with those... Right, time to break out the soldering-iron again. Cheers guys, Alex http://www.toneburst.net

Thanks again Wilba. that all sounds like great advice! I will do some more tests this evening and get back to you. Thanks again, Alex http://www.toneburst.net

That was from my Mike's MIDIShop PCB. I transferred the PIC to my first board, the SmashTV one. This time it's still not working, but I'm getting slightly different errors messages. Still getting the Unexpected Upload Request ones, but also getting another error. I guess there must be some major soldering/component issue with the other board so the MIDI in to the PIC isn't working at all... Anyway, from MIOS upload window: Starting upload of mios_v1_9c_pic18f452.hex Hex file contains code in MIOS range, forcing reboot!

OK, here's the output of the MIDI Out and Upload windows. My Setup this time is: PowerMac G5 Dual 2.3GHz / MacOS 10.4.8 MIOS Studio latest Beta Steinberg USB2MIDI interface (not tried this one before) Plumstone Java MIDI extension This is the 2nd, Mike's MIDIShop board Incidentally, I don't know if this is a seperate issue, but the LCD keeps screwing up. Sometimes it displays the row of bars, as it should, but sometimes it displays other stuff, sometimes just a single line of pixels, other times more blocks, with lines through them and randomised-looking portions. I did plug in the LCD cable the wrong way round when I first connected it. It got quite hot so I unplugged it as quickly as I could. It was subsequently fine, when replugged the right way round, but a couple of days later it started to screw up. Could this indicate a problem with the PIC, maybe? = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = Upload Window: Starting upload of mios_v1_9c_pic18f452.hex Hex file contains code in MIOS range, forcing reboot!

Hi Wilba, thanks very much for your detailed reply. Unfortunately, I'm at work at the moment, so I can't do any more tests right now. I do know that recently, I haven't been getting Framing errors though, I now just get unexpected upload request errors, as if the PIC wasn't receiving anything. The upload request seems to be send every 2 seconds, whatever I try to send to the Core board. I'm pretty sure it's not a problem with the optocoupler, as I've tried 3 different ones now. Unless I have it in the wrong way round, of course. As I said in a previous post, I've assumed the mark in one corner of the chip indicates PIN 1 If I could find the hex2syx perl script I could try uploading MIOS using Sysex Librarian from one of the Macs. Maybe you or someone else could send me MIOS as a syx file so I could give that a go? As for soldering/construction errors; it's definitely a possibility, as I'm not the World's greatest solderer, and will admit to not really knowing the first thing about micro electronics. However, I've made up 2 of the Core PCBs now (one SmashTV v.4 board and one v.3 board from Mike's MIDIShop), and get the unexpected upload request error in both cases. I only actually got the framing errors on a couple of occasions, with the 1st, SmashTV board. I have the boards here at work with me now (I popped home and got them- don't tell my boss), so I'll try some more tests here, and get back to you. Thanks again, Alex http://www.toneburst.net

http://www.ucapps.de/howto_tools_hex2syx.html has a walk-through about using a script to convert a MIOS hex file into a sysex file. Where can I download this perl script though? I can't find it anywhere on the site... Alex http://www.toneburst.net

I've tried my one remaining untried MIDI interface now. My Emagic AMT-8 doesn't work either. Now I'm really screwed- I have nothing else to try...... What do you think guys: should I just give up entirely and take up gardening or something? Just to recap- I've replaced the entire Core PCB and all components except the PIC with a new one I've run all the debug tests I've tried 3 different MIDI interaces, by 3 different manufacturers, in 2 different OSes and on 2 different computers I've tried changing MIDI cables I've tried 2 different PSUs Nothing I have done makes any difference- I still get exactly the same error messages in MIOS studio- 'unexpected upload request'... I'd be really really really grateful if someone out there could think of anything at all I could try. It's been nearly 2 weeks since I hit this brick wall.... Maybe someone can upload MIOS and the SID application for me..... It looks increasingly as though I'm never going to get it to work here... :( Alex http://www.toneburst.net

REALLY..... I will try another interface, in that case. The NI Kore doesn't seem to work either, but I have a few others I could try. Thanks for the info Twin-x! Alex http://www.toneburst.net

Hiya, I know answering my own post seems a bit like talking to myself, but here goes anyway... I'm really running out of things to try here. Last night, I completed my second Core module, this time I bought the PCB from Mike's MIDIShop (excellent speedy delivery, incidentally). I forgot to add a PIC to my order, so I reused the one from my first SmashTV Core module. Otherwise, everything is new. I also managed to find a 5V wallwart I didn't even know I had so I could eliminate PSU issues from my enquiries. STILL... DOESN'T... WORK............... Tried 2 different USB MIDI interfaces on my MacBook Pro (NI Kore, Midimac MIDISport 2x2). Tried booting into MacOS X (10.4.8 if it makes and difference) and uploading via MIOS Studio. Tried booting into Windows XP SP2 and uploading via MIOS Studio. Tried the send/receive SYSEX loopback test in MIDI-OX. Fails with both interfaces (I get an error message saying something like 'the port is trying to send something, please wait until it has finished and try again'). A couple of times I have been able to send and receive a SYSEX file, but not all the bytes sent have made it back to the MIDI input. I've tried adjusting buffer settings as suggested in the MIDI Interface Troubleshooting guide http://www.ucapps.de/howto_debug_midi.html Incidentally, the SYSEX file I'm using is a random file I found on the WWW- think it contains some patch data for a Korg synth. In terms of the loopback test, I don't think it matters what it is, does it? So... I tried the same two interfaces on another computer. Upload fails in MIOS Studio, with the usual error message. This Mac won't boot into Windows, so I can't run MIDI-OX. I have a third Mac, a PowerMac G5, but MIOS Studio doesn't work on this machine (the GUI is broken, and you can't connect MIDI interfaces to the MIOS Studio In and Out ports). This machine has a PCI-based MIDI interface (part of the M-Audio Delta 1010 I have connected to it), so if I could get hold of a sysex version of MIOS, I could try uploading it with a SYSEX tool like Sysex Librarian from there. I've tried different MIDI cables, so I don't think this is the problem. I've checked the polarity of the diode and the value of the resistors. Soldering looks OK. Voltages are correct. Optocoupler is correct way round. I'm assuming the small dot indicates pin 1.... It seems likely that it IS a problem with MIDI on my computers. The only other common factor is the PIC. I'm getting another one from Mike (though I think he's awaiting delivery of a new batch himself at the moment), so I'll soon be able to eliminate the posibility of a bad chip. If I can't upload MIOS via SYSEX transfer using another application on the G5, I think I'm screwed.... :( Anyone any ideas? Anything at all I could try? Thanks for all your help guys. I desperately hoping I've missed something obvious here... Cheers, Alex http://www.toneburst.net
