4xMBHP_CORE : need to solder LCD and MIDI components?

Hello,

 

I have a question : in a multiple MBHP_CORE set-up (for a MIDIbox SID), do I need to solder the LCD and MIDI part for cores #2, #3 and #4, since there will be no LCD for them, and MIDI should go through J11?

 

So, I could avoid to solder:

 

- The regulator part: IC3, X1, C5 and C6 (power through J2)

- The LCD part: P1, P2, T1, R4 (and R3?), but well use 1N4148 diodes for the CAN bus

- The MIDI part: R5, R6, R7, R8, R11, D1 (recycled for CAN bus), IC2, J12, J13?

- The DIN/DOUT buses: J8 and J9

- The AIN/AOUT buses: J6 and J7

 

So, there remain only the PIC, the oscillator, pull-ups resistors and filtering caps, J2, J4,  J10, J11, and some pins of J15

 

Is it correct?

 

EDIT: and do I need 1 banckstick per core, or is it shared from core #1 to other cores?

AFAIK you can leave out these parts except R9 and R10.

You can connect up to 8 Banksticks to one core.

They are shared between all cores.
