By accident I got a Roland Alpha Juno.
The Juno1 User CS is very minimalistic (80s Style).
So I started the MIDIBox Juno Control (JuCtrl) Project.

MIDIBox Ju Control @ the dokuwiki:
http://www.midibox.o...ontrol_panel_cs

Any other Juno User around here?

Great project!

I used to have one borrowed for a number of years, but the original owner wanted it back... it's a really nice sounding synth.

Btw, would you mind uploading the PDF to the wiki that you link to from the wiki page? <broken record>Offsite docu bad</broken record>

done.

I have an MKS-50 and have been dithering whether to build a dedicated cs, or to use iControMIDI and an iPad. That would support several machines I have and some of my friends synths, but a real CS is fun...
Choices choices. But, it's a great project nonetheless! Also, it looks like it won't cost a lot.

This will be interesting for sure.

Weeee!
I got it too...Alpha Juno 1 = 80s gold
Very interesting project

Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great Great Project!!!!!!!!!

I got an Alpha Juno 2 several years ago.

Now it's in the box, but this project it's a very good reason to get it out of the box again.

I'll be tuned.

Thanx

Hello julienvoirin,
Nice - great Project (Roland Juno 106 and Alpha Juno 2 sysex translator)!
I got no mios32 HW yet. But it's very interesting.

:-)

Best Regards,
- Lemonhorse

[julienvoirin]

i will try to code it so that it can be adapted to Mios8

[lemonhorse]

Hi Julien,
my code is pic/asm (not in MIOS8 C) - it's another world I guess.


But I'm interested in Your CS/Future Plans!
Are You interested to implement a Controller CS to Your Project?

arf, so sad you don't do C. It is so easy to understand, and so portable.
I will, of course, implement a control surface, based on PG 300 design, with faders (e.g L1 L2 L3 L4), knobs (e.g T1 T2 T3 T4) buttons (e.g OSC waveform) and LEDs
An original edit buffer will retain the original value and the modified one of each parameter and print it on a LCD Display. I already have that on my Matrix 1000 controller (C Code !)

A stuff very useful is to send double control messages : control change to the DAW in order to record & edit curves, and sysex to the synth. That's why i coded the translator on the 106.

Nice! And You got a lot of CPU-Power/Resources @ MIOS32!
I just love to do some (spare time) asm-coding. But You're right - as far I got the Time - I got to explore the MIOS32 world.
And of course I will keep an eye on Your Roland Juno 106 and Alpha Juno 2 Sysex Translator Project!

well, i learned C code by reading the sources of other members on the forum and TK tutorials. I do not know ASM and find it to hard to understand without some courses :/
that project doesn't require power/ressource as it is rather basic and MIOS is very well conceived. If i use MIOS32, it is because i got a spare STM32 and need 2 midi in/out.

need 2 midi in/out.

With MIOS8/asm I will try to use a IIC MIDI Module [http://www.ucapps.de..._iic_midi.html] as a second MIDI Interface.

IIC MIDI Module

yep. very good idea. aIalso though to very minimalistic schem on vero board : pics and crystals only. supply , octocoupler taken directly on the juno, the whole stuff being inside the Juno 106.

my project is on standby as i am currently focusing on OSC, Midi and Arduino. The idea is to use the iPad as a CS.

[lemonhorse]

The IIC MIDI module (Juno MIDI I/O port) is up and running.
Because of the Juno Patch Load/Store functionality I will exchange all POTs.
The MIDIbox Ju Ctrl will be stuffed with ENCs instead.

Any recommendations for ENCs and Control-knobs? (found no good knobs yet...)
