I am interested in 70 DK11 and 10 datawheels.
Thanks,
John

You're welcome. The first time I see a design with unlit knobs that looks slick. I guess I have to set up a big knob bulk in next months if folks want to copy your project. Had no time with the case bulks and bothering Albs with petty 15ish knob orders didn't seem right.
This may be a little late, but a knob bulk order sounds like a great idea. I'm building a SEQV4 with RE160F-40E3-20A-24P encoders and looking for knobs now. A set like this would be perfect now I think:
I would be up for buying quite a few extra so I don't have to worry about sourcing these again in future projects.
Thanks,
John

Guys, thank you for the quick helpful replies! That's exactly what I was looking for because I wasn't sure about the Bourns after those reports others had posted.
I would probably go with the Bourns, but looks like the Bourns PEC16-4220F-S0024 are on backorder at Mouser and Digikey, so I'll probably go for the non-pushbutton Alpha 318-ENC160F-24P for now.
Also, Peter, thanks for the great photo tutorial, I have been using that pretty heavily as well. I was interested in the ALPS encoders you link to in that tutorial:
But I couldn't find that encoder here in US.
Thanks,
John

I'm trying to figure out which encoders with pushbutton switch to get for my MIDIbox SEQ V4 build. I have the CS PCB now from SmashTV and ready to populate it. I've been going through several threads but I'm finding it hard to identify a known good current part available here. I'm in USA. If someone can post any known good current part numbers that are working for them and they like, please let me know.
Thanks!

Here it is!
Rowan, this looks good. Do you think you may be able to post your parts list and sources somewhere? I have the case, most of the PCBs and electronics and just ordered front and rear panels, but still need to order buttons, LEDs, LCDs, screws, and standoffs.

I created a quick&dirty documentation for the MBHP_MIDI_IO module today which also has a link to the Reichelt BOM (for Europeans who only order the PCBs): http://www.ucapps.de/mbhp_midi_io.html
Thanks for the updated documentation, that helps.

Hola John,
as it is a very new core, the documentation is still in progress - but here :
http://ucapps.de/mbhp_core_stm32f4.html
you´ll find the partslist and the schematics (in the middle of the page) for the core. For the MIDI extension board, you can have a look at the MIDI section of the LPC17 module (also on ucapps)- it will be next to identical!
With this information it is possible to populate the PCB.
Regarding the parts kit - you´d have to ask Tim/SmashTv, but it sure is a lot of effort to obtain and package those parts - and they are easily available from electronics shops around the world (no exotic components) :-).
If you are still unsure, will do a photo tutorial of the STM32F4 PCB + MIDI I/O module in the next weeks - still waiting for the customs office to process SmashTVs parcel :-)
Many greets,
Peter
Ok, cool, thanks Peter. I just wasn't sure if there was already a kit or a list. Now I know the platform page is the authoritative source. I'll work from that, thanks for pointing me to it.

Hi all,
I want to build the STM32F4 module pcb, but I'm not sure what the parts list is for what goes on the PCB. Is there a parts list anywhere for what goes on this PCB? Is there a SmashTV kit available that has all of the parts that go on the PCB, or would I need to order those from another supplier?
Thanks,
John

I'm really looking forward to finally be able to order a standard mbseq case with some front panels so I can build one but I'm still not 100% clear on the front panel design choices. As a general overarching hypothetical guidance, I will tend to favor cheaper, simpler designs. But because I do not have enough extra time to go off and design my own front panel, I will wind up going with a bulk order that is likely to work.
All this to say that I have some mild sticker shock about the front panel cost, and to ask, is there still an opportunity to discuss the front panel design? Because for example, I would probably prefer no countersinking or counterboring on front screw holes, and I still don't completely understand the purpose of the other extra work on the back, and how the benefits justify the cost.
Thanks for the patience of anyone who can help shed some light on these topics.
-
Oh, I see. You're using the panel with all the work on the back.. You do realize that almost triples the price? You can do counter sunk through holes for the standoffs and and no counter bore for the displays and you'll be back where I am price wise.
Can you explain a little more what you mean by this? I don't understand what the difference is between the two designs, what makes the one under consideration more expensive, and what the cheaper design alternative is. I don't know what "all the work on the back" means.

i can sell u a 3U rack case, exactly the same as i used for my seq, as it is spare.
it comes from selectronic and is no more manufactured. it fits Wilba's PCB+ Panel (need to cut the edge)
Hi julienvoirin,
Did you ever sell this case? I may be interested. Also, which edge did you need to cut (PCB, Panel, or case)?
Thanks,
John

You will find a simple USB application under: http://www.ucapps.de/mios32_download.html
search for usb_midi_2x2
The package contains a README.txt file with some useful informations
Best Regards, Thorsten.
Cool, thanks!

I have an STM32 built that I intended to use in an mb_seq, but in the meantime I would like to use it as a USB Midi interface. That is, I want to be able to have it show up in for example qjackctl under Linux and be able to configure routes between the ports.
Does anyone know of a software load, existing documentation, or a project already underway for this application (STM32 as USB MIDI interface)?
Thanks!
John

Cool keyboard! What are you using for those metal crossbars that the keybed is resting on?
