qt301 capacitance sensor

[fabricio]

hello i'm looking for the qt301 by quantum cause it's seem too be easy to use with midibox.

look at that : www.youtube.com/watch?v=GLXIEXfpUjM (thanks to audiocommander)

unfortunately there is just one store who have this one but the shipping cost is expensive to france.

Is there an american midiboxer who can buy it for me ?

Hi Fabricio,

sorry, I've just seen that it isn't available at Farnell anymore :(

I just mailed someone from Quantum (they have a European Sales Office in Germany) and asked about availability of this chip. I'll come back with the answer (maybe I can organize a batch order or something)... I'd also like to have some of these nice chips, I just ordered a few chips for testing :-)

In the meanwhile maybe you'll find something here:

i will command it by a friend who is living in brooklin. I think i will take 10 ics cause they are many use for that ( like fx pedal with optocoupler or with the midi box). So i will come back.
