  1. I played around with the new version a bit. My summary:

     

    - When I downloaded the latest build, it was already newer and not compatible anymore with the one 1 WEEK old build 1029

    - The editor seems to be faster than one year ago

    - Thorstens panel works nicely when it comes to editing

    - However the most important thing does not work : Loading a saved sound and sending it to the Sammich

  2. Doesn't work for me :(

     

    I received:

     

    callback error: postinit

    lua runtime error

     

    at line -1

     

    no static rotation in class affine transform

  3. Congrats. This is an adorable little synthesizer :smile: But what do you mean with V3 ?

     

     

    Not a biggie. one thing I did forget to mention. The encoder seems a bit flaky. When I am browsing patches, it will occasionally jump back or forward. Sometimes its only a couple patches, sometimes it could be as far as 50. I can change patches no problem with the up and down buttons. I double checked the solder joints and they look solid.

     

     

     

    Uhm, wtf. I soldered 3 Sammichs and I got this on all 3. Well, to be more precise, when it jumps, it jumps back, mostly by one. Thought it was my fault.

  4. Hi All (first post!)

    I have been a bit SID fan for years; most of our tracks use a HardSID 4U (6581 + 6582 + 2x8580). The HardSID is fantastic but I have a few issues with it that SUPER annoy me.

    Hehe, first post? Well, on this forum! I know you from other forums as well, such as DSI and Jomox (where I am jus a Lurker). And since I am active on this forum I can tell you that I really like the music that you two guys make.

    (and the mastering of a certain magazine sucked, your original music was better iirc + imho)

    I was once intersted in the Hardsid, I downloaded the editor and it was terrible. If I remember correctly, making polypatches was the horror, as you had to edit every osc at once, including the wavatable settings...

    Also the support seems to be terrible of those guys.

  5. Wie lemonhorse schon sagte, sind lineare Netzteile wohl besser geeignet. Die erkennt man am Gewicht des Trafos. Schaltnetzteile wiegen viel weniger.

    Ich weiss, das Problem ist, man kann keine herkömlichen Transformatoren mehr kaufen. Jedenfalls wüsste ich nicht wo. Ich glaube die sind sogar verboten worden.

    Daher möchte/muss ich mir Schaltnetzteile kaufen. (nicht bauen) Es geht um 12V Netzteile mit 1.5A bzw. einmal 2A.

    Bei Reichelt und Conrad gibt es ja so einiges aber ka, was da wohl gut ist.

  6. Bei den Elektronik Händlern gibt es ja eine ganze reihe von Schaltnetzeilen. Ich frage mich: Wie kann ich die unterschiedliche Qualität der Produkte erkennen ?

    Qualitätsmerkmale wären für mich: 1. Sauberkeit des erzeugten Stroms 2. "Dreck" der ins Stromnetz abgegeben wird 3. Zuverlässigkeit.

    Macht folgender (einfacher) Gedanke Sinn?

    Lieber einen Betrag in ein Festspannungsnetzteil stecken als in ein Universalnetzteil?

    Hintergrund ist, beim Universalnetzteil fließt das Geld in viele Komponenten (viele Stecker, Spannungswahlschalter ua.), beim Festpannungsnetzteil in weniger Bauteile, die aber evtl. besser sind ?

    Gibt es Firmen, die generell gute Qualität liefern?

  7. Seems like the LCD is about to die. (that's actually the second faulty LCD of 4... I had).

    What are the specs I need to know to get a replacement ?

    If you are from Germany, can you show me one please? It should fit to the green LED lamps if possible. (black and white display would be cool too, does not need to have green in it)

    Thanks :-(

  8. Kurze Frage: Ich habe einen Gleichstrommotor (Plattenspieler) der laut Specs auf 12V ausgelegt ist. Ich habe ein neues Netzteil kaufen müssen, an diesem liegen aber 12.5 V an. Meint ihr, ob das schädlich ist für den Motor?

    Kann man sicher nicht so pauschal beantworten aber dennoch :)

  9. The new build does not work at all with the new SID panel. To be honest I think the ctrl project is pretty much failsauce... it has been around quite a while and there have been many builds but it is still buggy as hell. Well, I can't complain, it's freeware afterall, I know, but Thorsten, I think you must take over the complete ctrl project, the original maker is overchallgend and I gave up on him :P OK, mean jokes aside, here is the error message I get:

    Callback error: requestinit

    lua runtime error

    what

    c

    name what:

    method

    ----------------------

    Callback error: sendens

    lua runtime error

    at line 43

    string "..."

    error message

    string "...": 43: attempt to call global "sendsysexparameter16' (a nil value)

    ------------------------

    By the way, all of the recent versions of ctrl take ages to just load.

  10. R945 fixes the issues I mentioned earlier. However, one important issue remains: I can't send the patches to my Sammichs.

    The Midi configuration should be OK. I can receive patches and send out knob changes. But when I load a panel into the Ctrl frame, the panel data, or the patch, does not get send to the Sammich.

    Something does get send tho, as I can see the (correct) light of the correct channel blinking of my multichannel midi interface. I also tried the "send panel" button but it does not do anything.

    A window pops up, stating that it's "sending messages" but it does not do so. No light emitting, nothing.

    Overall the Ctrl Frame seems very buggy to me. Lots of smaller problems all over the place. But this could basically be a very cool software!

  11. Thank you Thorsten for your work! This looks very promising! It does not work for me yet but once it does I will be happy because this basically seems to be better to work with than with the Java Editor with two sammichSIDs. I can open two panels with different Midi assignments and safe them. That's nice! Plus I could probably get rid of Midi Yoke.

    As noted in the original post, Ctrl 964 fails completely but I can't use 934 either because I get this:

    30jpa34.jpg

    I can't select Sid1, Instrument 1 or Lead Mode. When I click on those nothing happens. The editor also takes a long time to load. The receive button seems to work. I am on Win7 64 Bit, testet both 32 and 64 bit versions. I actually did not do any further testing yet, I don't know if all those buttons actually do anything ( should have tested that I know...). It's a shame that the Ctrl autho deletes all older versions !!

  12. Distortion when playing multiple notes using a filter tends to happen even with normal SIDs so that might not be anything to be overly concerned about.

    Any chance you can record some chords with your Sammich?

    - Init patch with two Waveforms

    - Sustain 15 , Volume 127

    - Filter on, LP set somwhere into the middle

    - Chords with 3 Notes

    Would be great to hear whats going on!
