    Looks good, the price is probably unbeatable, too. When buying a 17" panel, one wants to make sure it has slides for the closing sidepanels (see pic ) so the panel won't fall off the case. The original Wilba front panel file doesn't have this. Also the hole for the data wheel should be 25mm wide, so the DK45 from Albs can fit, too. The original 10mm are too small: http://albs.de/ecom/images/863108.pdf

    Good idea, needs a case file and a FabLab. A powerful fan is a plus, too (+60 m³/h). Mine is pretty weak and noisy, even though I have a commercial 230V one.

    Don't solder the caps, put them on machine pin strips and solder those. Sometimes SIDs get swapped, so will the caps. I use 1mm regular leaded solder wire & some flux. https://secure.reichelt.de/Solder/LOeTZINN-100GR/3/index.html?&ACTION=3&LA=3&ARTICLE=30439&GROUPID=557 http://mouser.com/ProductDetail/Chip-Quik/SMD291ST2CC6/?qs=sGAEpiMZZMu5DWrlJ6mslLcdFTlRzVcMmRJTFM9hhsY%3d

    This pic of the case should give you some insights. 1/3 of the case will be used by the core module, however 2/3 of the space is empty. This is where the breakout board will fit in. :thumbsup: Edit: orange_hand's pic is much better: :pinch: http://i150.photobucket.com/albums/s119/ws4711/40%20MBSEQV4%20Project/Wiring_Complete_01_zpsf156f49f.jpg

    I made a new thread where we can discuss the new backpanel design so this thread can stay on topic: I believe the new back panel will take some pages. Status update: we have 10 potential case buyers. The bulk can happen in theory.

    My reply to: Does this have slides, like the original design?
  7. kristal=
    Yes, the future SEQ4 plus will solely rely on the STM32F4. Looking forward to see them.
  8. kristal=
    I understand. Well, take the 3 cases and keep one for measurements. I'll direct future UK panel buyers to you, so you can finance your expenses.
  9. kristal=
    They are available, see I'm just waiting for 3 additional participants to hop on the bulk, maybe you could help filling in the gap? For the rear panel: I'm looking forward to see you design, maybe we should start an extra thread for this? Like "STM32F4 rear panel (and breakout board) for TK.'s SEQ4 case"? It would certainly help maintaining clarity, otherwise necessary posts will be overlooked.

    Okay, this is interesting. What I want: minimal workload for me, collecting huge amounts of money means registering a business with the officials. If the participants would send their money for the FP directly to Julian or Roelli, I would be glad. fair prices - I would like to see both Roelli & Julianf benefiting from this bulk. The goal is: will the participants will save money compared to Schaeffer, yet with the full quality experience? If the pros (SmashTV & Altitude) could help out with designing a back panel and a breakout board for Ethernet, USB, power switch etc. it be much appreciated. I'm currently busy with the old STM32 option, the STM32F4 PCB isn't in my focus right now. However, TK. mentioned the SEQ4 plus to be rolled out in the next time, therefore the STM32F4 will be necessary. Find Roelli's price quotation for 10 panels attached. Angebot Quotation 2014061001.pdf

    Well, FPE wants $223 for the FP without tax and shipping, that's 165EUR. Note that this is Wilba's original FP without slides, if you don't want your panel to fall off the case add 10EUR for slides. Roelli/frontpanels.de is a Midibox member since 2003, his record speaks for himself: http://www.frontpanels.de/examples/ 170EUR is the upper limit - we now have 5 potential buyers for the front panels. If the last 3 participants add 3 FP we see a considerable price drop.
  12. kristal=
    See the pic. Plz excuse the dust. I use those: http://www.midibox-s...dIIcMIDIR2.html What about an AOUT option and a back panel?
  13. kristal=
    Current status is: Received notice from Heidenreich & frontpanels.de Prices are: 85EUR per case with MOQ of 10 cases, 4-5 weeks manufacturing time, holidays 4. - 22. Aug. 2014 I have received prices for 10 frontpanels from Roelli, but I haven't answered him yet and I'm not sure, if we can get 10 FP on the first run. However, it won't get more costly than 170EUR per panel. I'll reply when I'm finished with my non-midibox activities. Just waiting for 10 participants so we can get this bulk started. An order page with the exact details for the bulk will be provided in a ~ week. In the mean time sign up at: http://www.midibox.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=seq4_aluminium_case_and_frontpanel_2014

    Pull them. From the sammichSID Build Guide (http://www.midibox.org/dokuwiki/lib/exe/fetch.php?media=projects:sammichSID_build_guide_v1_0.zip) I would recommend downloading the guide and carefully reading it, you'll find (nearly) all answers there. You'll save time and even gain a better understanding of your Sammich by reading it. The Sammich is Midibox building 101, it won't get easier than this. Good tutorial:

    You mean C1L, C1R, C2L, C2R 22nF (6582/8580) or 470pF (6581) From the sammichSID Build Guide The caps are inserted on machine pin strips, they won't get soldered. For soldering/desoldering on the Sammich, a kit like this is sufficient: http://www.ebay.com/itm/SOLDERING-STATION-KIT-50W-HIGH-POWER-2-WICK-ALUM-SUCKER-SOLDER-/320959752622?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4abab129ae If you want something more posh like a LCD display, check out: http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-RadioShack-64-053-Digital-Soldering-Station-60-Watt-LCD-Display-Temp-Presets-/321423245764?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4ad65181c4

    I made a list for potential participants in the bulk: http://www.midibox.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=seq4_aluminium_case_and_frontpanel_2014 If you can't edit the Wiki, PM me and I'll put/remove you on/from the list.

    I made a new thread for the 2014 bulk:
  21. kristal=
    Current status is: I received permission from Wilba to use his frontpanel design.I'm in contact with Roelli figuring out the right approach to this bulk.Haven't contacted Heidenreich yet, in a week I know more. The measurements of the shipping box are 590 x 290 x 140 mm, so either shipping with:DHL Päckchen bis 2 kg International mit Service Nachweis 17.90€ (only tracking, no insurance, 35€ damage refund) CN22 custom formor DHL Paket bis 5 kg International 16.99€ - 42.99€ (full insurance with tracking) CN23 custom form case comes with blank back panel, rubber feet, uniform color black (~ 75€-90€)front panel costs: with 2 LCD windows at frontpanels.de (~ 170€, Roelli mentioned a 20-30% discount compared to Schaeffer)front panel costs: with 2 LCD windows at Schaeffer (184€ + 2 x 20,42€ excl. shipping and verifying against the CS PCB)uniform front panel design for reduced complexity (holes for screws, colored engraving, see pics)handling fee (~ 15€ gas, package, time)PayPal conversion fees: € -> € 1.9%; other currencies -> €: 5.5% on my end priceno milled back panel, only a blank one for your own design (a milled can be later purchased from Roelli with a 30% discount compared to Schaeffer)no breakout board for the MBHP_CORE_STM32F4 PCB is needed, SmashTV's MIDI_I/O Module PCB will do the job. Ethernet via MBHP_ETH.breakout board for the MBHP_CORE_LPC17 PCB is needed (either design your own or join/create a bulk for a PCB)

    No, the set consists of 17 uniform DK11-170 A.6/4 knobs and one or two data wheels, shown in the first picture. The second picture only shows an example of how they look on a SEQ4 frontplanel. I tested various knobs, but the DK11-170 A.6/4 turned out to look and feel good. The knobs in the set were never assembled, so I sell them in mint condition. RAL5002 resp. RAL9010 to be precisely. The 17th knob is of course for the TPD extension. :happy:
  23. kristal=
    Next stop: mailing Wilba & orange_hand for permission of their front panel design. Then informing Roelli & Heidenreich about my plans. I hope I can present an estimate of costs for frontpanel, 2 LCD windows, case & shipping by the middle of next week. Stay tuned! :smile:
  24. kristal=
    Sorry, the bulk signing ended May 13th and all orders have been dispatched. You could PM Highcooley, if you could join his switch order at Albs. If an agreement with Albs is reached, I could do the shipping for both of you. Germany->World is much more affordable than Germany->Switzerland->World.
  25. kristal=
    I have a complete SEQ4 knob set for sale. 21EUR for the knobs with one data wheel of your choice. For 24EUR you'll get both data wheels. Please add 5,60EUR for international insured shipping. Dimensions of the knobs: http://www.albs.de/ecom/images/866003.pdf http://www.albs.de/ecom/images/860018.pdf Best regards Martin
