  1. 432 hz Box idea?

    in Miscellaneous

    Posted

    interresting!.. 

    Yes, if the timetretching code is here, it could needs very minimal hardware, with of course correct AD/DA converters.

    There is software witch plays in 432 a music tuned in 440 hz.  But for a recorded music. 

    I'm thinking about a box for live-playing with instruments tuned to 440.

    So the latency should be minimal...

    Can't promise how much I'll check in here, but I got an email about the latest posts and thought this was an obvious place to put an update.

     

    I don't own the eight-oh-eight.org domain.  I don't have a login there any more, so I can't even put in my charge card info like I did last time.  I don't have a phone number for Moogah, I only have email and mailing addresses.  I sent an email as soon as I realized the site was down, but haven't heard back.

     

    I think I have copies of the files from the site, so as I have time, I will upload them to the midiboxaddict.com site.  I own that domain and I pay for that hosting.

     

    On a personal note, my son has cleaned up his act and is now away attending a two year college.  My daughter has dropped out of University and is in a twelve step program, so I have been able to step back from that as well.  I am almost completely recovered from my last surgery and I can walk and ride a bike again.  (I need to ride the bike 40 minutes every day for my heart, and along with the beta blockers, my blood pressure is now usually below 140/90, not ideal, but better than the 170/105 I had before, and the migraines are gone.)  I hope we're done with the deaths in the family (most recent one was last month) for a while, and I am now working on a different contract at work, so I'm not travelling 50% of the time like I used to.  I will have to travel next month (March) for one week and then I have only one more business trip for a week some time later in the year.

     

    I know it has been a long time, but things are looking up and I will get out from under the backlog.  I'm not trying to be rude, but please don't waste your and my time by complaining about things, I don't have time to deal with it.  If it makes you feel better, you may indeed call me any name you wish.  If you're truly not happy, please send me an email at my midiboxaddict dot com address and ask for a refund.  It may take me a while, but you'll get it if you ask for it.  Otherwise I promise you'll get a kit some time this year.

     

    Regards,

    Doug

    Refund has been asked several times in 2013 at the midiboxaddict adress, and in several forums. No answer, no refund...

    I retried one week ago, when i saw this message. No answer yet.

    OOOOOOOHHHH YEAHHHHHHHHH IT WORKS!!!!!!

    I love you Thorsten!!! many thanks!  wonderfull!!!

     

    I'm silly, i realize how it was simple and behind my eyes!!! ahahaha

     

    I tried with GM5, in midi, impossible to query the core, (see photo).

    Core receive reset command, but no answer received in mios studio.

    After that, Mios studio didn't want to close. I had to use window to close mios studio that was totally blocked.  I've repeat that several times.

    In midi in, i receive strange parameters modification like program change, some notes, note off, on channels i never use.

    Last year, it was inverse, seqV4 application was loaded with GM5 because it didn't work with USB. Now, USB work (not totally, impossible to edit with file browser) and GM5 midi is problematic.

     

    I was thinking about appli like ADW cleaner and Adblock (block adds from internet). A friend installed them in my PC last week. Is it possible they block midi in flux?

    Hi Thorsten, thanks for your answer.

     

     

     

     

    It work well if i doesn't try to edit HW file in mios studio.

    I tried multiple times, Mios studio stop loading at different bytes.

    After that, when i query the core, the midi in seems to be blocked and there is no response from core.

    I have to restart Mios studio to be able to query the core and have an answer.

    I will try to have my GM5 tomorow to test with it.

     

     

     

    i haven't AOUT interface, i just want to send a trigger from DOUT (second DOUT module Vs;D0, first shift register., so the 5th shift register of the chain.)  Should i select one Aout interface in CV config page to have  AOUT chan 16 availlable? If yes, witch?

     

     

     

     

    For all testing moments, i always restart the core.

     

    i can't understand in HW file why allowed values 1-16 if each shift register provide 8 gates. why 1-16? witch value should i select for SR5? (trigger is connected to VS-D0 of the first shift register of the secound Dout.)

     

    Regards,

    Loic

    Hello, so i've got time on this project, i would like to send a trigger to TR808 kick from the first shift register (D0-Vs) of the secound DOUT module i've installed. i'loaded last version V4.078, with last MIOS.

    When i try to edit MBSEQ_HW.V4 with mios filebrowser, mios studio says "invalid response from MIOS32 core during read operation" after that, when i Query the Core it seems Core doesn't response in midi IN.

     

    In my text editor photo, do i select the right choice?

    When i disconnect and reconnect SD card MBSEQ respond like on photo 5. HW -  is it correct?

    When i put invalid parametters such as XXX on HW file, nothing happen.

    On photo 6, we see asterix after AOUT * does SEQ says AOUT 16 isn't availlable?

     

    There is a problem somewhere, but where?

    At the start of the seq (after power on), after he has found the SD card, there is these indication: HW:* 

    How can i be sure the hardwareconfig file i copied into the SD card is running?

    I've copy it in the sd card and reloaded the seqV4.070 into the LPC1769 core.

    So i chained a second Dout module to the first used for leds (it is seqV3 control surface). I connected Vs of the first shift register of the second dout (so i inderstand it is SR5) to 808 ground and D0 to 808 trig.

    I've change hardwconfig like that: (i've save it and copy it into Sd card)

    • # Allowed values: 1-16, 0 disables the function, all other values invalid and not allowed  (why allowed values 1-16?)
    • DOUT_GATE_SR1   0
    • DOUT_GATE_SR2   0
    • DOUT_GATE_SR3   0
    • DOUT_GATE_SR4   0
    • DOUT_GATE_SR5   1
    • DOUT_GATE_SR6   0
    • DOUT_GATE_SR7   0
    • DOUT_GATE_SR8   0
    •  
    • # if set to 1, the DOUT "gates" will send 1mS pulses
    • # useful for analog drums
    • DOUT_1MS_TRIGGER 1

    In event menu i selected Aout port chan 16 and played note C1 to C4 without result. could you explain "allowed values 1-16"?

    thanks for the answer, yes, the relay could be a solution, but in the seq, how can i send the trigger of a track to J5AO? In Event menu, with seqV4.070 i couldn't find "gate1" . Where in this monster should we route the track signal to "gate1"??

    I still have my probrem with triggering it from MBSEQV4.070

    I tried to connect a led beetween J5AA0 and J2Vs to try to find how i can have a 3,3v gate from the MBSEQ, but no results.

    Someone can help me please? How can i be sure i send a gate trigger to J5A0?

    I tried a lot of possibilities into ENENT MENU and CV configuration, but no results.

    from Eric Archer:

    "If you are planning on triggering the circuit from a logic signal, the easiest way is to tie ACCENT to +12V (+15V), and connect the logic signal to TRIGGER.
    This schematic includes my diode-cap-resistor network. This makes trigger behavior independent of pulse width (unless the pulse is super short of course)"

    " If you’d like to trigger these drum modules manually, it is easy.  All you do is get an SPST momentary pushbutton and wire it between +15V and the Trigger input terminal.  You need to use the diode-cap-resistor trigger circuit here.  Otherwise you will get a weird sound at the moment you release the button.You can also trigger them with piezo discs and make a drum pad.  get some medium or large plain piezo discs (20mm diameter for example).  Wire the piezo between the Trigger terminal and GND.  When you tap the piezo, it will sound the drum.Remember, the Accent terminal has to be high (+2 to +15V) for the drum to make sound. "

    I've connected Accent to +12V  , trigger to LPC17CORE J5AO and 808 ground to J2Vs 

    Is it correct?

    I've found at Hardware options/CV out :

    "Tracks can be assigned to the outputs in the MIDI event menu. It's also possible to route incoming MIDI events to the AOUT/gate triggers in addition (this replaces a CV interface completely). The AOUT channel and trigger routing is described in the "Special Pages" chapter of the User Manual. "

    But the link is empty. It is in work i think.

    And in event menu i haven't found a parameter to route the track to gate1. There is port AOUT but it doesn't seem to work.

    I tried to select BUS1, and in the Midi Menu, i routed it into Aout chan1, and it doesn't seem to work.

    Hello, i need a little help..

    I've built TR808 BD from Eric Archer ( http://ericarcher.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/tr-808-bass-drum-diy-project.pdf )

    It works good when i trig it manualy with a switch connected beetween +12v and Trig. (accent connected to 12V)

    I'd like to trig it from MbSeqV4 from J5A (LPC17core). I've connected J5Aao to 808 trig and J5Avs to 808 ground.

    Is it correct?

    In MbSEQ menus, i didn't found how to route a track or a layer to gate1. 

    How can i have access to gate1?

     

    If i understand well, if 808 accent is connected to +12, i could trig with 3,3v pulse without Aout or amplifier circuit.
