eptheca Posted February 17, 2015 Report Share Posted February 17, 2015 the way I am casing my SEQ V4 (STM32F4) there will be a 50 cm. distance between the Core and the MIDI sockets. either I can have the MIDI I/O and Quad IIC boards close to the Core, and 50 cm. cables to the sockets, or I can mount the boards to the back plate, and have 50 cm. cables to the Core. Is it a cable length problem with the MIDI I/O and IIC boards, like it is with the DIN/DOUT/AOUT? It would be a lot easier to just stretch 3 flat ribbon cables from the Core to the boards, than 2-3 wires from each IN/OUT (with 4 IN and 12 OUT, that's 44 wires soldered / crimped on each side :sad: ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shuriken Posted February 17, 2015 Report Share Posted February 17, 2015 I think the 50cm to the midi sockets is not a problem. I have midi cables of 5mtr. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eptheca Posted February 17, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2015 I guess I was a bit unclear my question was really if I can have 50 cm. cables between the Core module and the MIDI I/O and Quad IIC modules Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilmenator Posted February 18, 2015 Report Share Posted February 18, 2015 Looking at the schematic I see no reason why you shouldn't be able to use a 50cm cable between Core an MIDI I/O module. For the Quad IIC module I don't know for sure, but I would assume it should work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eptheca Posted February 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2015 I guess I will just have to try it when I get there ;) It would make my build better and easier Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
