Re: Dummy mounting of modular synth panel and MB-SEQ
Oh man, looks great. 
Re: Dummy mounting of modular synth panel and MB-SEQ
absolute knockout!
and some of the crème names in sdiy in the setup, i might say.
awesome design.
btw what’s this about the PML germanium distortion? are you planning to provide some kind of pcb, by any chance?
:whistle:

i missed out on this one, seems to have happened befor i was scanning. is the super controller standalone or an addition to TH’s SN-voice?
Re: Dummy mounting of modular synth panel and MB-SEQ
Thanks!
PML is the mystical workings of me and my friend FS. We’ve been talking about setting up a domain, a build blog, maybe we’ll provide factory-made PCBs. At least we’ll make most of our designs known and described - we have discussed it but not made any firm decisions so far. It’s not going to be some kind of invite only cult with secret designs - or is it?
We’re going to finish the build and upload a demo somewhere. Once we tested it enough it’s good to good to /public/style_emoticons/default/thumbsup.png" alt=“thumbsup.png”> Stay tuned and something will happen. It’s soon x-mas… /public/style_emoticons/default/flowers.png" alt=“flowers.png”>
But, I’ don’t want to use MIDIbox to advertise any own operation, even if it’s non-commercial. Also, we’re not going to sell or give away any of the non-published bits made by others like TK and Thomas Henry! Only the PML gear. Look at it more as a give-back to DIY - it’s not intended to make money. Just doing it for the lulz.
Re: Twice the fun / double the trouble
Woooooow!! Great work! + Happy Burthday!!!
Re: Twice the fun / double the trouble
Thx! I have heaps more of the pix, but I didn’t want to push others off the top gallery banner thing. Especially not the beatiful MB-AY!
There will be some test firing of different modules later, hafta get more power cable first /public/style_emoticons/default/frantics.gif" alt=“frantics.gif”> Then some plywood and… Phew!
Re: Twice the fun / double the trouble
Man I wanna hear how those things sound rather badly!
Re: Watch your bass-bins!
WOW! Most impressive. You are no longer a padawan, but a full fledged Jedi.Congrats on a beautiful job!
Re: Watch your bass-bins!
Thanks! Test firing all the electronics soon :ahappy:
Re: Take a peek, why doncha?
Yes, we hafta spraypaint the backside. Shrooms? Platypus? Dr Tinycat? The PML logo!
TK and Wilba are on top of things as you can see. The MIDIbox logo ought to be cut to a stencil for spraying.:flowers:
You give me graphics and I might stencil it
Re: Watch your bass-bins!
Cool! Black/Orange combination is good.
And it looks very professional!
Re: Watch your bass-bins!
Awesome!!!
Re: Who me, I’m hiding!
Some people think I had a plan. From the beginning it was very loose, so invention was needed as it progressed. The MB-seq made it all come together :sorcerer: Fussylizard did the bulk order and it rocked!
The plan then:
Looking back, plus really good music (as always from this guy):
Re: Technodistortionsgerät
Very nice!
Which design of germanium distortion did you use? Can you share schematic?
Re: Technodistortionsgerät
Thanks! This uses 1N60 diodes, and some 1n4148 as well. PM me an e-mail address and I can send the docs.
Edit: Just to be clear on this: The Germanizer is copyright by my friend Fredrik S (I just happened to be in on the idea). It’s OK to build for personal use only.
Re: Technodistortionsgerät
it is in “nuke” mode per default !
beware of the russians! 
(just joking, Schrabikus :))
Re: Technodistortionsgerät
Beware of soviet diodes! :nuke:
Re: Technodistortionsgerät
Wow! Use any you like, we sat on some extra Germanium diodes so it just felt proper. The normal Si diodes will clip at 0.7V, the Germaniums should be 0.2-0.3V-ish. In a modern construction one can get away with Zeners or Schottkys depeding on application but a Zenerizer isn’t as cool, unless you happen to like the letter z.
The nuke is there simply because we needed a term for harder than hard. I don’t like nuclear weapons. Or war for that matter. We must learn to get along and make tea instead. :hug:
Re: Technodistortionsgerät
+1 on that comment :clover:
hey, these soviet diodes above look like they are able to withstand high velocity space particle impacts for use in kosmonaut environment very nice!
