The parts kits will be available sometime in the future, so youll have to wait until then. The list filled a few months back so you cant sign up anymore. Its all explained here As for the differences, i dont know the exact differences, but i think wilba just made a few improvements to his design, moving things around a bit and such... If you read in the wiki, wilba suggested that you should build a normal MB-SID first before you build the mb-6852. So you get some practice and experience before you go building the big boy. This is what im doing, building a Step A control surface (minimal design) MB-Sid. Basically 1 x Core 1 X Sid Module 1 x DINx2

That makes perfect sense man! :) PT-10 panel = visible screws. Wilba panel = no visible screws. Not really a problem, especially if we replaced the screws with black ones ourselves to keep them discrete.

So basically you would have to bolt your own panels differently? Or just dirll holes in them too?

Ah, sounds like a minor thing so! Thought it may have being a hole going all the way throught for screws or something! Cheaper sounds good to me! ;D ACHTUNG!

Might as well point this out just to help you understand better. :) The reason smash is busier than ever these days is because of the HUGE! amount of interest generated by: The MB-6582 project. Recently the pcbs became available in his shop, and all along he has being making up Base Parts Kits for people that were on a very long waiting list for that project. And to show just how many components go into only 1 parts kit, scroll down the page quickly here Imagine having to count all those parts, and pack them for 100s of people! Even before this he has been really busy, but this makes him busy busy busy!

Is there a big disadvantage to this? Ill have to try and find a pic or look at the pdf to see what the flaw would be. Thanks for sharing the info! :)

Meh! No need to apologise. Our posts are there for you to edit! ;) Well, when we dont spot the error that is! Jesus i almost made you sound like our slave. :-\

Well i didnt "post" it, it got embedded when i quoted kart. Ill be sure to edit it out the next time though.

Hehe, the new series started 2 nights ago so there should be some new ones floating around soon! The puspé one is great also!

You must add your name to the list on the wiki page as stated in the first post: http://www.midibox.org/dokuwiki/gm5_expansion_5x5_board Dont see your name on there! ;)n

:D I was lpissing myself laughing at that exact sentance on our natioanal news site! "Duuuudeeee? Yo duuddeeee? Hey mannnnnnnn, can i like buuyyyyy some of those shrooms from you mannnnnnn?"

Each would require its own port. Dont get nils started about USB ports! ;)

YAY! YAY! YAY! ;D Sounds like an exquisite idea to me! Makes things much more convenient. Doug you could be kept going with these for a while, you might have to open up your own shop!

Ive added me name to the list, just adding this post so ill be notified of updates!

you've seen nothing yet!

Try local adverts in the paper, or putting an advert saying you want one. If you wanted a free c64 try your local recycle centre and you might just get lucky. Wilba sells New (Old Stock) factory sealed Sid Chips,whenever he can get them, so keep your eyes open on the Fleamarket (Awww Yeah!), they're the closest youll ever get to a brand new sid chip, and he tests each one to make sure everything works.

Funnily enough a thread on the very same encoders was bumped today after a long gap: http://www.midibox.org/forum/index.php/topic,11983.0/topicseen.html Id say theyre fine for hand soldering, just ask futureman.

AWWW YEAH!

He might also mean the number of Smash TV's current Sid PCB - R3A :P

This is what comes up on 2 of the reigstration page: I was able to register okay, just threw in midibox.org as the company name lol. You can have a look too yourself by entering some random info on the first page: https://radionics.rs-online.com/web/authHome.html Heh, the name changes to Radionics when i select Ireland.
