Well i sat down, determined to make my box work last night, and so i connected pot 14 to ground, and that stopped the random ain data (WOO!).
Then i put mios 1.5 on it, and it wouldnt boot up :o, so i tried again from another computer and it worked ::), then i uploaded a tweaked mb64 (with 24 pots and 16 buttons) and it works great!
The only problem now is that my buttons are behaving strangely. One of the buttons connected to J5 is jittery as can be seen from the MIDI data below
0003768F 1 -- 96 30 7F 7 C 3 Note On
000376BD 1 -- 96 30 00 7 C 3 Note Off
000376DF 1 -- 96 30 7F 7 C 3 Note On
00037700 1 -- 96 30 00 7 C 3 Note Off
00037745 1 -- 96 30 7F 7 C 3 Note On
0003776F 1 -- 96 30 00 7 C 3 Note Off
00037791 1 -- 96 30 7F 7 C 3 Note On
000377B2 1 -- 96 30 00 7 C 3 Note Off
This repeats for quite some time, unless i press the button then it stops. The button is connected to D6 of J5. Is the source of this problem a faulty button? When i press or release the button it fails to send a note on or off event..
hmm.. ;D
