Midibox Seq v3 in 2022 ? Which parts ?

[Re_]

Hello,

I have the opportunity to buy 2nd hand parts for a midibox project but the seller don't know much about what he has, and some parts seems to be for a Sidbox. From the main uC listed, I found that it could be for a Seq v3.

Do you think it is still worth it, and possible to build a seq v3 today ?

Can you tell which parts in the list below are ok for a midibox seq v3 ?

Thanks,

List :

AIN R4 x1 (carte entrée potentiomètres)

DOUT R3 x1 (carte sortie LED ou autre)

I read that MIOS 1.9f is supported until Seq V3.4e, so that looks like another part is compatible with seq v3.

about the things above... well most of the things you dont need...

 

you need

3x DINX4

1x DOUTx4

2x  2x40 LCDs

17x encoders

a lot off buttons and LEDs

1x core

1x DIN MIDI

 much wires...

a custom frontpanel

big breatboards - to build a custom UI

 

better go to V4, search the flearmarked forum for a "wilba" frontpanel pcb, and a stm32F4 core with discovery board, and a Midi IO Board

Frontpanels you can order from "the beast" from UK.

Ok, thanks, it seems this kit is for a sid box v2 then.

yes, the PIC18F4620 is the core for the SEQv3, but as already mentioned, the SEQv4/v4+ goes a lot further (SD Card instead of EEPROM support, the source code is mostly written in C++ instead of ASM etc.). DINX4, DOUTx4, on the other hand, are compatible.
