buttons,encoder,and 10k pots??

Thank you very much for taking the time,lending the help.

Back to reading :stuck_out_tongue:

Controlling CutOff and Resonance with analog pots is not natively supported by the firmware, has anybody written a GOOD documented extension in the meantime? I don’t think that an AIN module is required, so long not more than 8 pots are connected to the core.

300 mA sounds a little bit weak if the LCD has a backlight, a 500 mA PSU would do better.

Best Regards, Thorsten.

are you sure you want to use pots for cutoff and not encoders?

You may want to read this entry in the FAQ

don’t worry analofbrotha,

I think TK refers to another thread  ;D

cheers, Michael

(and I’d also recommend Encoders rather than Pots :wink: )

Ahother tread,LOL.

Anyway, why are you so much against encoders?

Expenses, complexity, …?

Just like the min max option of the pots instead of the 360 degree spin of ecoders.

Hi analogbrotha,

might be best to look to the wiki,

there are some great introduction-articles, esp. in the basic and general section

the application-development pages is a lot going on too, there are tutorials, links to installers and step-by-step instructions…

just look around a bit :wink:

Cheers,

Michael
