Thanks, dude

Just wanted to tell everyone, that the tutorial is now officially complete, just added step 17 "Building the back panel".
The feedback mod really screams ;-)

nILS, if you read this, could you please delete the empty postings #9 and #10 of this thread? Thanks, man!

Hope you enjoyed it. I really love the MB-6582. 8-SID polyphony with slightly different overdrive/feedback settings sounds really, really awesome!

And I want to recommend Smithys real cool knob removal tool. Comes in handy, if you had shaky hands soldering the CS: :-)

did u opened the door ?

Nah she was not hot enough, did a sid feedback-mod demo instead. The ambient background string starting at 00:13 is an unaltered and unenhanced 8-channel sid output with feedback mod

Congratulations Hawkeye!
I soldered the new cables, and everything is fine except for 3 LEDs not lighting.

Im not too worried about them now though, im having too much fun!

Your tutorial is excellent, its extremely well written, to the point, and step by step.

You cannot ask for better really.

Great walk-through - would have made my build go a lot faster. I nominate this for a sticky in the MB Sid section. Not everyone will find it over here.

[Hawkeye]

Thanks Snoozr, creating it was a lot of fun . Still awaiting word from Wilba

[iZZE]

Thanks for writing this.. I would have done things wrong without this tutorial.
I am not finished yet because sourcing the parts is a bit of a pain sometimes.. still waiting for my flat top LEDs to arrive. But i hope that my MB-6582 works at the first run, as my x0xb0x did.

Grüsse aus Tirol ;)

[Hawkeye]

Thx man, still awaiting Wilba´s word :-)
Servus! Peter

[Wilba]

What am I supposed to do? Someone please remind me...

[Hawkeye]

...just waiting for your approval stamp that´s all ;-) The design rocks!

Also maybe we could consider moving this thread back to the sid section, ofc this is completely in the moderators choice, just feel that potential mb6582 builders won´t find it in here

Have a nice weekend and greetz to downunder :-)
Bye,
Peter

[dreamer]

Grtz

[steve_savage]

This is amazing!!! Well done

I will be using this guide once the base board is completed!

Thank you

Steve

[Hawkeye]

thx :-) have fun with this awesome synth!

[Nestle]

Thank you for this tutorial. World would be a different place without it. At least for my MB6582

Thumbs up

[Hawkeye]

thx for all of your very nice feedback - wish all of you and your mb6582s a good new year and long life to your SIDs

[phunk]

Peter! What a great TuT!
Hopefully it makes it in the Wiki or at least becomes a sticky.

It helped me a lot sourcing parts. You still gotta come over trying the prophet!

[franky303]

Great tutorial, thanks a lot !!!

[Hawkeye]

You are more than welcome and i encourage everyone to build one as this synth rocks the house :-)
nILS, what do you think about a move to the SID section, at least until MB-6582 V2 is out? :-)

[nILS]

Nothing really I think "Tips and Tricks" is a really nice section for this.

[Hawkeye]

no problemo :-)

btw., I will update this tutorial, if i can find a VFD that somehow fits into the mb6582 case, i´ve gotta have one - or at least a display the is really quickly updating, the 9USD display from china drives me insane, it needs a subjective 1+ seconds to update characters, until the old content is not seen anymore (ghosting)
