  1. Hi, I'm selling two midibox instruments: - sammichFM in acrylic enclosure. Works 100% (knobs, pots, display as it should). The sammich comes with no power plug, just the sammichFM as pictured. asking EUR 230,- - MB6582 fully built in Pactec enclosure, with red display. Includes 6 x 6582 SIDs (NOS ordered back then via Wilba) and 1 x 6581 (ripped from a C64). Here comes the story: It was working 100%. Then I had the MB6582 in storage for about 2 years. If I turn it on now, it will boot up correctly but some of the encoders/buttons will react, some won't. The situation which encoder/button works changes with each start of the box (on/off). So I'm a bit clueless what the issue here is. Maybe it is a wire problem from the Control surface to the mainboard. But I can also not hear a sound when triggering via midi. So this is probably only for someone experienced in debugging... The MB6582 will come without the Rean knobs which I have put on for the photo. I have a spare C64 power plug which I can provide. asking EUR ??? . I really do not know what I could take for this? Parts prices? I'm open for sensible offers... Please note that I want to sell the MB6582 'as-is' ie not selling the SID chips separately. Both midiboxes can be picked up in Frankfurt/Main Germany or shipped to your place (price plus shipping cost). Thanks and Regards, Frank
  2. Update: SIDs are all sold... thanks to the buyers & have fun :) Hi, while clearing my storage out, I found a couple of 6582a SID Chips which I purchased a couple of years ago from Wilba's bulk order. The chips are new and unused. Still sitting in the tubes which I originally received from Wilba. Have been stored warm and dry :) Have a total of 12 8 zero SIDs 6582a available. Per piece EUR 30,- plus shipping. Would prefer to sell them in pairs or multiple pairs. Payment via SEPA transfer to my account of Paypal F&F. Please leave me a message if you are interested. Thanks & regards, Frank
  3. Hi all, I'm selling various PCBs, SIDs etc. which I have bought over the past few years. As it is unrealistic for me to start any of the projects anytime soon I will sell them as listed below.

Payment via SEPA on my account. All prices in Euro plus shipping. I’m not interested in trades. Thanks a lot! Cheers, Frank
  4. Sold to a nice fellow in my town... Hi, I'm selling my sammichFM kit which I bought from Wilba. Details see here: http://www.midibox.org/dokuwiki/sammichFM The kit comes with all parts, LCD, casing (black acryl) to build the sammichFM minus the OPL3 chips. So you would need to source them separately, they are not included. Looking for EUR 100,- for the complete kit (payed EUR 170,- not including customs..). Would prefer to sell within Germany or EU. No trades, cash only. Please leave a PM if interested. Thanks a lot! cheers, Frank
  5. try this: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Mode-Machines/178267622200065 :whistle:
  6. these guys are quite perky when it comes to stealing of intellectual property... just saw an announcement on their webpage about the SID synth -> wanna buy one for EUR 1.495 ? (see also attached screenshot) http://www.touched-by-sound.com/de/Mode_Machines.html
  7. also saw this at messe yesterday and can provide more detailed pics if needed :) also just messaged TK on this...
  8. I'm also in for 2 (or more).. thx AGAIN Wilba!
  9. Hi there, anyone has an idea where to get an Orient Display AMC2004A-B-T6WTDR in Europe (in small quantities)? This was also subject for a bulk order http://www.midibox.org/forum/index.php/topic,9979.0.html some time back. Hope there are some other dealers than shopeio.com, cause I have made some bad experience with them after ordering two of these LCDs end of 2007 (I never got the LCDs, but they got my money and after some mails going back and forth complaining about this, never heard again from them... customer service par exellence! You can imagine.. I somehow feel ripped off). Thanks a lot for any hint! cheers, Frank

  13. nice one! I remember this effect from my Amiga time some 15 years back. It was called 'Plasma' effect. And still it is useful for some stage performance..

    [ S ] Re`an knobs

    May I ask where did you get the knobs from?
  17. just have a look at the link in my first post of this thread...divineo.com still sell these for 9.99 USD
  18. Hi SmashTV, thx for the clarification and hint! Well, actually I connected power to J1, so the issue must be somewhere else. Will go into more detailed troubleshooting the next days checking on the bridge rec. and power regulator... I'm confident that I will get this to work.. sooner or later ;D cheers, frank
  19. Hi there, I'm new to DIY and ordered MB-6582 PCB's some while ago. I thought it might be a good idea to start of with a single core/sid combination (as a training) before going for the BIG one... So I ordered a core module R4 (and SID) and parts from SmashTV and finished building the core yesterday night. I hooked up a C64psu which is giving around 10,5V (should I be worried why it's not 9V?). So here I am... Next step was checking the different IC pins ( IC1:MCLR(1) - IC1:Vss(12) = 5V / IC1:Vdd(11) - IC1:Vss(12) = 5V / IC1:Vdd(32) - IC1:Vss(31) = 5V / IC2(8) - IC2:(5) = 5V) like stated in TK's tutorial. The pic and opto is ofcourse not plugged in... My issue: when checking the pins I still get 10,5V! While troubleshooting and searching the forum I stumbled across this tread http://www.midibox.org/forum/index.php/topic,9134.msg64926/topicseen.html#msg64926 which is handling some issue with the rectifier. I checked on that and noticed that rectifier + and the two ~ pins go to as described. But pin - is going nowhere.. well at least not to the middle pin of the 7805 as described in the thread. Do I miss a bridge here? Could this solve my problem? Any other hints and tips for troubleshooting are mostly welcome! :) As I'm still a bit puzzled what else could the issue be.. ??? cheers, frank
  20. Also got my encoders & SIDs today!! :) Thx a lot (once again) Jason for organizing this!!!!! Thumbs up!
  21. ahh.. the LCDs arrived today.. just 2 days from US to Germany.. not bad! DSCN0173.JPG
  22. fyi - this might be interesting for people who missed this bulk order (Crystalfontz 20x4 for US$ 9.99) http://www.midibox.org/forum/index.php?topic=9753.0 cheers, frank
  23. Hi there, think this might be interesting for the community... As I missed the LCD bulk order for Wilba's project, I was doing a little 'research' on the web where to get the Crystalfontz LCD for a reasonable price. Think I was successfull... :) Crystalfontz CFAH2004A-TMI-JP (the blue one) for just US$ 9.99 (plus shipping) at www.divineo.com (direct link http://www.divineo.com/cgi-bin/div-us/zz-xb-lcd-b.html). There is no minimum quantity (well, strangely the price per unit goes up the more you order ??? ). Unfortunately they only offer the blue and 'green' LCDs. But I'm just fine with the blue one. So maybe this is an alternative for other 'bulk-order-missers'... ;D I already ordered some. Will give you feedback once they arrive at my place!
