bleeptor Posted September 24, 2009 Report Posted September 24, 2009 It's a little bit confusing what are the options for building the MIDIbox SID. I don't want to build a huge project I just want to make some drum sounds with this 6581 chip that I have.I've some experience hardware hacking, but none programming chips, so I think the MIDIbox requires some programming, is it super hard? Should I quit? Someone please help me! Quote
SLP Posted September 24, 2009 Report Posted September 24, 2009 Welcome aboard, bleeptorplease read through ucapps.de, the dokuWiki and the forum.Everything you need to know can be read there.You don't need ANY programming skills. As long as you know how to solder, you're alright.You might also have a look at this project:http://www.midibox.org/forum/index.php/topic,14079.0/topicseen.htmlregards, matthias Quote

Smithy Posted September 25, 2009 Report Posted September 25, 2009 IM guessing he'll have to upload the Drum engine app .hex file on its own intead of the full SID app?Will that work? Quote
Wilba Posted September 26, 2009 Report Posted September 26, 2009 IM guessing he'll have to upload the Drum engine app .hex file on its own intead of the full SID app?Will that work?No, the Drum engine is just one of the four engines in MIDIbox SID Synth V2, not a separate app. It even has a sequencer!

Imp Posted September 28, 2009 Report Posted September 28, 2009 If you don't want to use the other engines, just ignore them...it's much easier than removing them from the code..You could save patch #1 as a blank template with the drum engine enabled, so you don't have to switch everytime you turn on the device.
