All right it works.... The reason I had no sound was due to 2 reasons...  I had the MD line from the right SID connected to the wrong connection on the CORE... Also upon removing the SID chips and reinstalling them I noticed that on the right SID socket that the one row of the IC socket was open farther than the other causing for some play in the chip causing no connection... I swapped the left chip with the  right for a better fit and voila test tone.... I thinks this what was the issue I had a month ago when I try'd to perform the test tone app a month ago.... I only have one patch on the bank stick I though it automatically loads the bank stick on boot up...

I will post pics shortly as I tidy things up and I would like to say thanks to all and being patient with me... I will build a mono sid next and it should be a breeze after this...

and those who I have missed...

Side note there is a new editor for the Nord micro mod for those interested....

Nomad 0.3 Release - Opensource Nord Modular Editor

I'm very glad to announce the release of the 0.3 version of the opensource nord modular editor Nomad, which you can download at http://nmedit.sourceforge.net/ . Christian has done an incredible job that is still totally blowing my mind, and I helped him out a bit on the end. This release is pretty much usable, and it has a ton of new cool features that the Clavia editor doesn't have. I'm just gonna post the RELEASE notes, and 2 short videos I made to show the different stuff we have in there. Go get it, it's fresh new, and it works under Windows, MacOSX and Linux:

Sorry about the size of the pics I reduced them in PS but I guess it was not enough...

Here is the core and the 2 SIDS boxed up with the optimised power supply.... After this pic I tidy'd up the witing with some tyraps...

This is the control surface with the DIN4 pcb and a 2x40 LCD... Unfortunately the LCD is not back lit...

Rear view with midi in/out, C64 ps connector, left/right outputs and an RS-232 connection for memory sticks...

SIDbox007.jpg

Control panel with 10 buttons for each parameter displayed on the LCD... One LED was burnt out and it is hard to find a 1mm led replacement not really a worry at the moment...

All in all an awesome project I did have some issues since this was not the defacto 2x20 5 button minimal control surface but after building it the next one will be easier... Even programming the code was not too hard and I hate programming... The Ucapps site is awesome for support...
