Since built his wonderful moving fader console i 'm thinking of doing same thing on my Amek Galileo, the problem was to get the right fader to work with GAL10 channel. I finally get some of Penny and Gile PGFM3220/D fader to start this project.
I tried to control the PGFM3220 with the MF_NG module but it was impossible to get the fader moving smooth and the motor is huge noisy by setting MIOS Calibration App.
So i’m considering using a other driver like the ST L6201. Do you think it will solve the smooth movement and noise issue ?
Your help is pretty much appreciate to put me on the right way to get it working
Your P&G have big (coreless ?) motor, I suspect you need way more power than MF_NG is able to offer, but I don’t remember precisely what onboard reg offer, 10V 1A ?
That’s probably why it’s not smooth. For those motors you probably need 24V, with probably more than 1A in stall condition…you need good protection/limiter otherwise you’ll blow drivers
About PWM “printer” noise, it’s more or less intrinsic.
There is a lot of PWM motor driver, you can probably test some others and have better result ?
Side question, is’t those Amek series loaded with VCA fader ?
