Thats a great idea Altitude! Thanks!
I'm the one who suggested alternative parts. An equivalent of the parts Julian linked to should be available from almost any electronic parts supplier, so I think its the best option for everyone.
Yo! I added a few holes for the Quad IIC Midi Module!
Would be nice if someone could confirm that I haven't made some super stupid mistake ;) seq_enclosure_2012_quadiic.svg.zip
Double check all the Soldering around output 1. I guess theres a connection problem somewhere, and the OSX driver is just a bit more ..lets say tolerant.
The grounding thing sounds a little far fetched. My GM5x5x5s don't have cases at all :)
Hmm thats strange. What kind of software are you using? Maybe test in a very simple command line environment with aplaymidi or something and see if it still occurs?
Cool! Congrats! :)
You don't need apache for SVN. You should remove the package, afaik Ubuntu starts daemons automatically as soon as you install a package, and you really don't want to have a web server running on your computer all the time ;)
I have a fan inside, but its unplugged because its too noisy in the audio output. My SIDs have passive clip on heatsinks, but I don't think they are really necessary...
Hi there.
I've been using 2 GM5x5x5's with several Linux distributions (mostly Debian and Arch) for a long time now and never had any problems.
Really just plug and play and worked 100%, running for days...
Sorry if thats not much help for you :/
