You won't get into trouble (at least, not with the law ;) ) Great to see someone working on the Cubase emulation! Be sure to document any issues on the wiki pages. Cheers.

I've also read that due to mechanisms in the firmware called wear levelling, that the read-writes get spread around the physical blocks of memory and give the memory a much better chance at survival. That much said, if your data doesn't exist in at least 2-3 places, it might as well not exist. Back Up.

Welcome aboard gabananda! The LC Application will do meters, and is intended for use as an analogue-style mixer. Whether Abelton specifically will use the meters is up to Abelton, but my guess is they will work, as the App is supported to an extent by Mackie. Question two: The LEDs inside the buttons are controlled via MIDI. (at least, in LC they are). Have fun.

awesome. :D

Sorry to drop in with more hardware stuff, but might i suggest a 74HC393 Dual 4-bit Binary Counter instead of a dual d-flip-flop. as there are two four-bit counters, you can divide the clock source by up to 256. I guess this means you could use a clock source up to tens or hundreds of MHz... I'm just saying this because pitch seems to be a serious concern with this chip.

Hmm. Let's see. Wilbas boards are what, $25 each? And really well made. The SIDs are about another $25 each. From Wilba. The entire MB6582x8 would cost what, about $350 in parts? Maybe? And this guy is selling SINGLE SID synths in shonky pine boxes for upwards of $500 US? So more like: Why pay heaps for this garbage, when you can build an instrument for much much less.

Ah yes, way back in January. How things change... ;)

sure. that works.

How about this version: http://www.midibox.org/dokuwiki/crystals_and_oscillators It's the same, but with a link built in... Borrowed from the Wiki FAQ Page Yeah? Nah?

If that is the case, you could definitely avoid using an AIN mux board. The Core module has 8 built in AINs. Use AINs for faders, DINs for buttons. You will probably still want 1 DIN board for the switches, and one DOUT board so you can see what status your switches are in. (MBHP prefers momentary switches)

Hi. Just thought I'd dive right in and add a new wiki subheading. http://www.midibox.org/dokuwiki/crystals_and_oscillators

Have you tried diving an OPL3 crystal? The OPL3 board uses a 14.318 MHz crystal. 14.318 / 8 = 1.78975... also, I hope later today to upload a crystal to oscillator schem onthe wiki. stand by.

that's ok Stryd, I remember that from the chat room. I think a good old NE555 would work well for that.

If you are only doing 9 faders, you'll only need 9 analog inputs. The AIN board (that's AIN, stryd :P ) is intended to multiplex 4 of the 8 analog inputs on the core board, creating up to 32 analog inputs (multiplexed) plus the other 4 non-multiplexed inputs. It works like this: [tt] +-----------------------------+ | Core Board | | 8 analog inputs | +-----------------------------+ | | | | | | | | 4 wires 4 wires | | | | | | | | +-------------+ +-------------+ | AIN Board | | AIN Board | |32 inputs, | |32 inputs, | |4 outputs | |4 outputs | +-------------+ +-------------+ [/tt] Or like this: [tt] +-----------------------------+ | Core Board | | 8 analog inputs | +-----------------------------+ | | | | | | | | 4 wires 4 non-mux inputs | | | | +-------------+ | AIN Board | |32 inputs, | |4 outputs | +-------------+ [/tt] If you only need 9 inputs, you could possibly do without some of the 4051s.

Sorry, i haven't built an edrum yet, although it is on my to-do list! As I understand it, with the eDrum you can get any trigger to play any MIDI note you want? In that case, it is completely compatable with the MBSID and the MBFM. Have fun.

I've just pried to send a message to eBay. (note, the subject is pre-determined, not my wording...) Subject: Someone is stealing my intellectual property. This seller is selling synthesizers which contravene the Intellectual Property laws contained within the GNU public license. The intellectual property contained within the electronic design and software control of the synthesizer belongs to Thorsten Klose of Munchen, Germany. The design has been made public for non-commercial use under the confines of the GNU public license. Therefore, the sale of these synthesizers by the seller is a direct breach of intellectual property laws. We have attempted on numerous occasions to contact the seller regarding this issue, but he makes no reply, nor has he stopped producing the synths. Of course, I'm not holding my breath waiting for eBay to reply...

I've got a bunch of old 64s. I'm actually planning to build a stand-up arcade console for a 64 if I ever get the chance (and the space). Also, if I can get in contact with the IDE64 people.

Yeah, that one. A free viewer. Possibility of a reduced price/vastly reduced capability "education" version. Might I suggest the use of a search engine?

.dxf is an AutoCad file. I'm not familiar with inkscape, but I think you can get the "educational" version of AutoCad for free, or very cheap, or not quite so expensive as the full version.

The MidiBox_LC application makes use of the touch-sensor function, perhaps that would be a good place to look.

Welcome aboard Arnak! http://www.midibox.org/forum/index.php?topic=9220.0 This thread had a discussion on touch sensors. http://www.ucapps.de/mbhp/mbhp_din_touchsensors.pdf This is a link to the wiring diagram you seek. Have fun!

That is freaking hawt! Now there's even more incentive to get my FM working.
