Installing ICs question, sammichSID *FIXED*

Hi I am in the final stages of finishing my sammichSID build, I am up to installing the Ic’s.

The build guide reads,

I recommend installing the “Bankstick†ICs (IC6, IC7, IC8, IC9, IC10) and the SIDs (IC1L, IC1R) after fully completing both PCBs, uploading MIDIbox SID firmware and having a fully working control surface. This allows you to watch the formatting of the Banksticks by the MIDIbox SID firmware.

So do I upload the firmware then install ICs (IC6, IC7, IC8, IC9, IC10) and the SIDs (IC1L, IC1R)?

When do I install ICs IC1, IC2, IC3, IC4? I seem to have missed this part…

Cheers

  1. Complete the voltage tests for both boards

  2. Disconnect power

  3. Insert IC1, IC2L, IC3L, & IC3 into the Base PCB

  4. Insert IC1, IC2, IC3, & IC4 into Control Surface PCB

  5. Reassemble

  6. Fire up MIOS Studio

  7. Power on the sammich

  8. Make sure MIOS and sammich are properly hollerin’ at each other

  9. Upload the latest sammichSID hex

  10. Wait for the sammich to reboot

  11. Make sure the fancy knob and buttons are behaving appropriately

  12. Disconnect power

  13. Insert Banksticks (IC6, IC7, IC8, IC9, IC10)

  14. Power on the device

  15. Watch in amazement as the banksticks are formatted

  16. Load the default patches via MIOS Studio

  17. Power down the sammich

  18. Install your SIDs with the appropriate jumpers and capacitors

  19. Power that MF’er up

  20. Check for smoke/fire

  21. Perform shredding tunes

  22. Create killer patches

  23. Record album

  24. Get rich

  25. Marry supermodel

  26. Make more killer records

  27. Grow weary of supermodel wife/husband

  28. Make poorly executed and ill-advised break-up album

  29. Alienate your former fans

  30. Take a swing at a reporter that calls you a sell-out and a has-been

  31. Retreat from public life

  32. Return 6 years later with amazing new album and smoking hot collection of girlfriends/boyfriends

  33. Die as a legend in your chosen genre atop a pile of cash

  34. Be an icon for generations of musicians to come

I think that’s it.

How’d you get a hold of my life plan?
