Is it possible to use some LED’s to show which bank is used? So that you can see which bank is selected on first view? Like a Led row where every Led stands for one Bank? Or is there another way to let me se it?.
BTW, is there a way to insert 2 seven-segment LED’s over each string of the Midibox (if it’s aranged like a Mixer) and show other Numbers for every bank? So you could Number your Channals and use 7 Knobs and one Fader per String.
Would be a nice thing, but i guess its not that easy …
The first one whould help, so i could use it on a printed Matrix to see what each pot means
Not sure if this may help you, it’s from a post in the German forum (i dont speak german - but occasionally run the page through an on-line translator to see if there’s any tips/tricks/info i can pick up on as i’m quite new to this)…
Anyway, this is lemonhorses’ site: http://www.subfrequenz.net/techlog/mbox64b.htm - he has a 12 pole 3 layer switch that is connected to the bank eeproms and leds to indicate which one is active…
Sure, I could integrate this into the MB64 firmware, just another option… but I think that it’s better to wait for MIDIbox NG where everybody will be able to create and distribute his own “MIDIbox Skin” (display, LED outputs, button functions programmable via PlugIn)
Okay, but i have the Parts allready and i need to buy some new, because i buyed them a long time before the MBHP startet. I think i should finish this one I’ll build another later, and for that box I’ll wait for the NG I’ll build it without this feature. No Problem.
