  4. MBBLM schematics and PCB discussions

    in MIDIbox BLM

    Posted · Edited by latigid on

    Using your Ikea case idea the approximate size is 30 cm EDIT: by 40 cm. So approx. 7 rack units, plus a Wilba/TK SEQ is 10. That's quite a bit of real estate, and I'm wondering whether the SEQ belongs in the rack (MIDI'd to your synths) and the BLM on a keyboard stand/ table/ hand-held as a real performance instrument.

    Plus, it's gonna be battery powered and WLAN MIDI'd right? ;)

    I'd say people will have a lot of opinions on which buttons to use, my humble suggestion is to keep the layout as general as possible so peeps can choose. SPST tact switches usually have 200 mil pin spacing, correct?

    Maybe not the place to discuss this, but I was under the impression the BLM project was a cost-saving exercise, i.e. using ordinary tact switches with home-brew buttons ("feet") and RG LEDs to shine through, all on a double layer PCB of course! :)

    I was only asking of yours as you seem to be using the same switches and LEDs throughout the whole design.

    I'm in New Zealand, would consider ordering a few of these to send out to people if we could agree on a fixed format.

    Question: I think I remember a clear acrylic WilbaSeq panel a while back, is it robust enough to handle JB weld? Or judging from your drawing were you contemplating normal panel screws?

    Might be useful putting a thread in the Bulk Orders section?

    I don't have the PCB yet; I'd need one at some stage ;)

    Re: julianf

    Awesome work! Is this what we need to get a run of panels and WilbaSEQ PCBs on the way? Or has the motivation run dry? (Yes I did see Wilba's post a few days ago.)

    If it's a happening thing I'd be happy to help with whatever organising I could.

    Edit:

    I guess I'm assuming two things (typical of me, sorry):

    1) Would julianf (or somebody else) be prepared or able to produce a large quantity of panels?

    2) Would Wilba (or somebody else) be prepared to order a large quantity of PCBs and ship them? From Wilba's previous post, probably he is not keen to do this.
