orange_hand Posted July 3, 2012 Report Share Posted July 3, 2012 Hi Guys, I am currently wondering how the PCB’s and Plugs (Core32, IIC, BLM, USB, Ethernet, Power Switch) are mounted in the custom Heidenreich enclosure. Are the PCB’s mounted on the bottom or on the rear panel, or even both ? Or is it required to disconnect the various plugs (MIDI, USB, Ethernet, BLM, Power Switch) from their respective PCB’s and mount them separately and exclusively on the rear panel ? Apart from the picture posted recently by Thorsten, I haven’t found any pictures that show how the SEQ V4 is fitted into the Heidenreich enclosure. Are there pictures available ? What is your experience ? Cheers Orange Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK. Posted July 3, 2012 Report Share Posted July 3, 2012 I am currently wondering how the PCB’s and Plugs (Core32, IIC, BLM, USB, Ethernet, Power Switch) are mounted in the custom Heidenreich enclosure. Are the PCB’s mounted on the bottom or on the rear panel, or even both ? They are only mounted on the bottom. Or is it required to disconnect the various plugs (MIDI, USB, Ethernet, BLM, Power Switch) from their respective PCB’s and mount them separately and exclusively on the rear panel ? no, this isn't required (and also not possible) Best Regards, Thorsten.

orange_hand Posted July 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 3, 2012 (edited) Thanks Thorsten ! Actually I am also wondering where are all the guys with the Heidenreich enclosure ? So far I have just seen pictures of yours and Wilba's MBSEQ V4.... Or are they sitting on their cases waiting for the control surface PCB's to show up ?

strophlex Posted July 4, 2012 Report Share Posted July 4, 2012 I have one and it is complete and look nice :) I hand drilled the rear panel so some of the holes doesn't look so good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orange_hand Posted July 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2012 Great, and did you take some pictures that you can share with us ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

orange_hand Posted July 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2012 That looks great ! Did you built the Ethernet Module yourself ? What did you install between the Ethernet module and the core32 ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gtxdude Posted July 4, 2012 Report Share Posted July 4, 2012 The two PCBs to the left of the CPU were acquired through a group buy run by seppoman about a year and a half ago. They are the MBHP_ETH PCB and the MBHP_SDCARD PCB. You might try pinging seppoman with a PM and ask if they are still available. That was the only time that I have seen those PCBs for sale on the forum. They were sold as blank PCBs, you had to source your own parts. If you do find a source for these let me know. I need another set of them for another project I'm working on right now. The middle PCB is the SD memory card receiver. Note that the eithernet card and the SD card connect to the CPU on a common cable. Good luck with your project! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sonicwarrior Posted July 6, 2012 Report Share Posted July 6, 2012 Or are they sitting on their cases waiting for the control surface PCB's to show up? That's seems to be the case for many people. I even have the Heidenreich case and the PCBs sitting around but my DIY modular has top priority currently. @gtxdude: Did you use the .fpd file from TK for the front panel? I'd like to know if it really fits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gtxdude Posted July 7, 2012 Report Share Posted July 7, 2012 My front panel came from julianf in the UK. Mine fits like a glove. Top notch craftsmanship and cheaper that Scheffer or FPEx. And julianf is a swell guy to boot. See his site at: www.thebeast.co.uk I did use the back panel .fpd that TK provided and it worked great.

sonicwarrior Posted July 7, 2012 Report Share Posted July 7, 2012 Thanks. I have to use the .fpd file for the front panel because I'm using some LCD frames that need bigger holes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
