I emailed you this morning about getting on your parts order list. I see the list has been updated, but I'm not listed yet. GMail often flags my emails as spam, so please make sure you check your spam folder.
Thanks,

Ok I'll bite. I'm pretty proud of what I do for a living.
I've been a video game programmer since 1995. I'm currently working on "Silent Hill 5: Homecoming" for the XBox360 and PS3. The first commercial games I worked on were MechWarrior 2: NetMech and Interstate '76 for the PC.
Here's my profile on Moby Games.

What about using dielectric grease? I got some on ebay, 50 little tubes of it, for some ridiculously low price that I can't remember.

Is it too late to join in on this order? I'm building a x0x and I still need a few of the parts.

PCA9635 is only available in TSSOP package (=SMD)
I know I have 25 of them sitting at home waiting for my next big adventure :P

Check out these chips for LED PWM purposes:
PCA9635
http://search.digikey.com/scripts/DkSearch/dksus.dll?Detail?name=568-4067-1-ND
They use I2C and each chip can update 16 LEDs.

I agree with everything you've said Stryd. I do a bit of scuba diving here and there and I can tell that I have to be very aware of the pressure in my ear drums and have had to learn how to control that pressure using the eustachian tubes. It's absolutely essential to safe diving that you learn how to balance the pressure in there.
When descending the water pressure outside becomes greater than the pressure inside the ear and the only way to balance it out is to get your eustachians to open up thus pressurizing your inner ear to match the water pressure outside. When ascending it's the opposite situation. The air inside your ear expands as you go up, sometimes the pressure is enough to actually force the eustachians closed so you can't equalize. So sometimes I have to re-descend a few feet just so I can get the tubes to open up to let the pressure out. After the first about 20 or 30 feet from the surface it's not really too much of a problem.
If you do blow your nose, don't take a deep breath and plug your nose and mouth off.. you could be asking for it there. The pressure has no where to go but up into the inner ear, and it may do so violently with a pop because the eustachians are not the most perfect instruments in the world.

µVGA-PICASO-MD1 (available at sparkfun)
Add these and you could make MidiBox Glasses ;D

Which diode was too close to which switch? I don't remember having any issue like that.

While I'm sure there are several sources for this kind of problem, I had several of these and they were all hairline splits nearby one the pads of the LED's in that line. One of my lines had two of these. One of them seemed to actually have been produced on the board because it was under the red solder mask. I used a magnifying loupe to find them, and a small amount of solder to bridge the gap.

Ok, that seems to have done it! I hope that it can be worked out for this setup to be more generally used, it's certainly a lot cleaner and easier to understand (for me at least) than having all of these files repeated in every project.
Thanks Didier.

ok, so from config.log the main error seems to be a pathing error:

Hey it's cool on the bugs. I figured I was the guinea-pig on trying this so quickly.
I'll upload the config.log as soon as I get home. You want the log from when I configured libcmios right?

Hi Didier,
Yeah the it seems my problem crept in when I decided that I want the gpasm, sdcc, and mios tool chain files in my /usr/local/bin. In my learning how to do that I think I screwed things up. I'm not yet sure why or how, but all of links that are created (to pic18f4685-microchip-mios-gcc, etc) were sitting in my /src directory and were never moved to /usr/local/bin. In fact, it seems that make uninstall does not remove these files. I tried "$sudo make uninstall" and that didn't work. I think I forgot the sudo command once and ran the make install without the permissions. Then it made all the files, but could not copy them to the destination. So I was stuck in limbo, with it unable to back up and try again, because nothing would clean up the /src directory if it couldn't find the files in the destination (/usr/local/bin).
So I moved/created the links pic18f4685-microchip-mios-gcc, -ar, -as, -ld, -ranlib in /usr/local/bin and the tool chain looks like it's set up correctly now.
/usr/local/bin$ls ... gpasm and sdcc files here ... ... -rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 2624 Dec 20 09:55 mios-fixasm.pl -rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 5226 Dec 20 09:58 mios-pic16-tool-wrapper ... lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 23 Dec 20 10:03 pic18f4685-microchip-mios-ar -> mios-pic16-tool-wrapper lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 23 Dec 20 10:04 pic18f4685-microchip-mios-as -> mios-pic16-tool-wrapper lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 23 Dec 20 10:04 pic18f4685-microchip-mios-gcc -> mios-pic16-tool-wrapper lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 23 Dec 20 10:04 pic18f4685-microchip-mios-ld -> mios-pic16-tool-wrapper lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 23 Dec 20 10:04 pic18f4685-microchip-mios-ranlib -> mios-pic16-tool-wrapper
is this the correct setup? before I attempt to configure libcmios? Still getting errors configuring libcmios, but it's definitely seems to be working better (ie: using the correct compiler now)~/Desktop/mios-autotools-skeleton/libcmios-1.9f$ ./configure --host=pic18f4685-mios --prefix=/usr/local configure: WARNING: If you wanted to set the --build type, don't use --host.

running configure always seems to print the same thing, so I've condensed it.

This seems like a good time to chime in that I've been having some problems following your installation instructions on OS X. I don't have my mac with me at the moment, but I can try to post the specifics later. I started to write a detailed post yesterday, but Safari crashed when I pressed the post button grrr.
Anyway, I'm having trouble getting the configure steps for both libcmios and you other package libcan to complete. It's not locating the pic18fregs.h file. For more detail I'll have to try to post again when I get home. The mios-pic16-toolchain configured and installed fine for me.
$ cd ../libcmios $ ./configure --host=pic18f4685-mios ... <errors here>
both gputils and sdcc are installed in /usr/local/bin with libraries and headers and such located in /usr/local/share, /usr/local/share/sdcc. The file its trying to locate is in /usr/local/share/sdcc/include/pic16/

Wow MTE! These tracks are great! "True Forms" is much more than a song.. its feel like at least 2 songs.
-
Wow that just sucked up a few hours playing with those patches. Quite fun. Thank you for sharing that TK.
I found a bug in my control surface.. it appears my LFO depth knob only turns down when turned in both directions.. kind of annoying. I'll be digging into that before I scratch the surface of your bassline sequences.
While I was exploring my LFO depth knob problem I came across what appears to be a software problem. With SID 2 selected I was playing with the lfo rate or depth on either of the 2 LFOs. While there I pressed the SID1 button to go to change the current drum sequence, what I got was a completely blank LCD screen. Should it return to at least the top most menu if it has no where to go like that?
-
mmm nice!
Is that running with SID filters or with external filters?
-
more good info for the builders out there:
I just happened to have a few 10mm spacers with the screws sticking out of them lying around (probably from years of building PC's). Once I started to use them I realized the benefit of having the screw there.
Using screws and threaded screw spacers makes a lot of sense because once you have about 3 located, dried, and matching to the circuit board, you can use the circuit board for alignment of the later screws. Let them dry while resting in the hole that they will later be fastening and you guarantee alignment.
Since the threaded screw seems to help out with alignment and I ran out of 10mm spacers, I decided to improvise midway through using flat top angle head screws with a nut JB-welded at the 10mm height. For fastening the nut at the 10mm height you can definitely use the quick drying JB-weld without any problems. I used a sliding depth gauge.
The only thing you want to keep in mind is the size of the nut that will screw onto the spacer or screw. It probably wouldn't be good if they touched nearby trace thru-holes.
-
wow this looks cool. How many do you want? PM me.

Here is a really cheesy video of me playing with the synth. Using the play button to audition patches while a drum loop plays.

I originally set out to just record audio, but wound up working on a song.

Wow I didn't even know this discussion was going on.
First of all.. Definitely a big [glow=red,2,300]thanks to Altitude[/glow] for arranging this order. I'm certain its been a ton of work for nothing more than a few thanks.
As you can see from the copied picture above I've finished building mine. Here is the link to more pictures: http://www.midibox.org/forum/index.php?topic=9975.0
Honestly though, I didn't even notice the misaligned text at the bottom until I visited this thread. I've been more focused on getting mine to the point where I could actually make music with it (Sounds on the way). The misalignment hasn't kept me from being able to use it at all and even now I'm not sure I really care that the text is slightly off. It IS readable and usable.
The only thing about the panels that has peeved me was that one of the letters, the "L" above the SID selection button, fell off pretty much immediately... almost like it was a rub-on letter (which I may use to repair the letter). The silk screening has been easily nicked and scratched while working on it, but this letter L was barely attached to the metal to begin with. (picture linked below)
I had originally planned on clear coating the panel as soon as it arrived, but I never got around to it. Also I'm not really certain what I can clean it with now that won't screw up the silk screening.
-
This last picture show my LCD area from the outside. Also note the letter "L" that litterally fell off the panel a few minutes after it arrived in the mail :-(
If anyone wants to see anything in greater detail let me know and I'll snap a picture for ya.
