Wilba Posted December 19, 2008 Author Report Posted December 19, 2008 Sorry to hear that Sasha... I was building an OPL3 board when I was distracted by other things :) and never finished it, so I can't even say that this batch of OPL3 worked for me... Obviously I couldn't test SMD chips, only assume they were all good, and took all anti-static precautions, but I have not heard of anyone else having problems with any that I sold, so I can only assume they work.I'll send you some replacements if you can't fix it soon! :)Is it in any way related to the broken track on SmashTV's OPL3 PCB?http://www.midibox.org/forum/index.php/topic,10773.msg83254.html#msg83254 Quote

I just wanted to hear if somebody build the synth from this batch. Seams I`m the only one. Strange. My reason was problem of getting the right oscilator, but chips was soldered long time ago.I'll send you some replacements if you can't fix it soon! :)Thanks, but I don`t want you to do it. It has nothing to do with you. I know that chips couldn`t be easily tested and I agree to get it as is and hope they are right.Is it in any way related to the broken track on SmashTV's OPL3 PCB?Unfortunatelly not as Smash don`t ship to Serbia. :( Quote
nebula Posted December 20, 2008 Report Posted December 20, 2008 I just etched a couple of OPL3 boards. I was planning on populating at least one next week. I'll let you know how it goes. Quote
buhler Posted January 25, 2009 Report Posted January 25, 2009 i am also quite close to getting my MBFM up and running. i'll let you know if my chipset works. i was a part of this bulk order. i hope my chips are ok! Quote
nebula Posted January 25, 2009 Report Posted January 25, 2009 ... and of course I still haven't gotten around to it.Sorry Sasha... it's still on my "to-do" list. Quote
Sasha Posted January 25, 2009 Report Posted January 25, 2009 NP Steve. I have alot projects I have started long time ago, that I didn`t touched for ages. I changed my building priorities often. :P If I don`t finish the project as soon as possible I get intersted with another. Good I have all the parts to finish x0xb0x. I build 2 for myself and 2 for other guy from the local batch.Anyway, I hope at least somebody will test the chips soon. MBFM can be build very quickly. I say I could have finished in nice enclosure over weekend. Quote
Wilba Posted February 20, 2009 Author Report Posted February 20, 2009 I don't have any more spares, sorry.Put your name on the bulk order page, but I won't order more until I know they work! (I've been too busy with other projects to test them, and my one OPL3 board already had ICs soldered). Quote
klaasjandiederik Posted April 27, 2009 Report Posted April 27, 2009 Hey Wilba,Have you already heard something about the chips if they're faulty or not?Cheers Quote
