bhc303 Posted July 17, 2011 Report Share Posted July 17, 2011 Hi I am in the final stages of finishing my sammichSID build, I am up to installing the Ic's. The build guide reads, "I recommend installing the “Bankstick†ICs (IC6, IC7, IC8, IC9, IC10) and the SIDs (IC1L, IC1R) after fully completing both PCBs, uploading MIDIbox SID firmware and having a fully working control surface. This allows you to watch the formatting of the Banksticks by the MIDIbox SID firmware." So do I upload the firmware then install ICs (IC6, IC7, IC8, IC9, IC10) and the SIDs (IC1L, IC1R)? When do I install ICs IC1, IC2, IC3, IC4? I seem to have missed this part... Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siempre La Luna Posted July 17, 2011 Report Share Posted July 17, 2011 1. Complete the voltage tests for both boards 2. Disconnect power 3. Insert IC1, IC2L, IC3L, & IC3 into the Base PCB 4. Insert IC1, IC2, IC3, & IC4 into Control Surface PCB 5. Reassemble 6. Fire up MIOS Studio 7. Power on the sammich 8. Make sure MIOS and sammich are properly hollerin' at each other 9. Upload the latest sammichSID hex 10. Wait for the sammich to reboot 11. Make sure the fancy knob and buttons are behaving appropriately 12. Disconnect power 13. Insert Banksticks (IC6, IC7, IC8, IC9, IC10) 14. Power on the device 15. Watch in amazement as the banksticks are formatted 16. Load the default patches via MIOS Studio 17. Power down the sammich 18. Install your SIDs with the appropriate jumpers and capacitors 19. Power that MF'er up 20. Check for smoke/fire 21. Perform shredding tunes 22. Create killer patches 23. Record album 24. Get rich 25. Marry supermodel 26. Make more killer records 27. Grow weary of supermodel wife/husband 28. Make poorly executed and ill-advised break-up album 29. Alienate your former fans 30. Take a swing at a reporter that calls you a sell-out and a has-been 31. Retreat from public life 32. Return 6 years later with amazing new album and smoking hot collection of girlfriends/boyfriends 33. Die as a legend in your chosen genre atop a pile of cash 34. Be an icon for generations of musicians to come I think that's it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
