I’m in for a pcb too !
yeah definitely in for one too if you decide to do a run!
Lamouette and Rosch,
Thx for your intrest in the MB909.
I would like to remind everybody that this is an unfinished project, the hardware seems to be working fine, but the firmware needs to be improved to make it more userfriendly.
if you would like to help programming and would like a MB909 PCB (with maybe the components), please put your nickname on https://docs.google…NXc&usp=sharing and email me.
Thanks,
Jef
Cool, seems like we are already enough ![]()
Could you tell me the size of the PCB?
If it’s possible, i want one.
I have ordered 20 PCB s to get the price down. So people interested can still enter this bulkorder. Hopefully we can get a few C-PROGRAMMERS on board to help with the firmware. cheers, Jef
Unfortunately I am not a good programmer. But I did put my name on the list. My 9090 pcbs lying under the bench for nearly 10 years. And that’s not good.
What is the functional status of this board?
@ altitude: as I am using the MidiBox Seq v4 firmware, the “sequencer” is working fine. I have alreade adapted the frimware from Thorsten a bit to work more like a TR909. I am currently trying to make the display (menu) more userfriendly.
Kind regards,
Jef
Hey,
I have PM’d or emailed everybody on the list that I could find in my email box or by nickname on the forum.
If you have not received a PM or mail, please let me know.
Cheers,
Jef
Hi Jef
So am I correct in thinking that the sequencer Beta PCB’s are reserved for people who already have a 9090/909 and
can contribute the the project? If so, I will leave that for now and hipefully come back it when it is finalised.
Secondly, I am on the list to receive the 9090 kit (without sequencer) - do you know if these have been sent already?
Many thanks.
@ Schrodinger’s cat: you do not need a 9090 or TR909 but at least some sort of drummodule to control with the MB909 CS. The 9090 kits will be sent in januari. I am currently making the kits and already have 90% of the kits. I will email everybody in december to give a status and request a payment.
Cheers,
Jef
Hi Jef
Check your inbox.
Any news ?
I have tried to contact the people on the Google list (see above), but a lot of people didn’t send me their nickname.
If someone still wants a beta version kit, please email me on mb909@synthage.com
Kind regards,
Jef
as i said, i would take one, but my tr 9090 is not build actually so if no one want it, i would take this !
Pm sent before to know if there is still one available. Is there a last one?
Hey everybody,
I have had time to update the design of the MB909 sequencer boards for professional manufacturing. I have ordered 20 board sets.
Once the testgroup is happy, I’ll then organize a big bulkorder for the MB909 sequencer.
The betaversion for the testgroup will be sold as a kit (PCB, components). I do not have an exact price yet, but the kit will be around 95 Euro.
The list for signing up for the beta version is on: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Av9ZyDwCt04MdFB6cTZKaV9uMDF1cWY0X1pBOWxqNXc
A few pics, video and info on the sequencer on: http://www.synthage.com/Sequencer/default.html
If there are enough people (at least 20) interested I would prefer people that :
already have a 9090 and/or TR909
will be able to upload an update of the firmware to the mainboard (this is easy with Tk’s MIOS terminal)
would like to test the software and hardware and give me tips to improve the design (again soft and hard)
So if you put your (nick)name on the list, I’dd like to ask you to send me an email if you have a 9090 or TR909, etc.
Cheers,
Jef
still have a lot of kits available as most people on the list are not interested :sad:
If you are interested you can put your name on the list (link in previous post).
cheers,
Jef
Hi
Nice to see there is more kit
I’m on the google list now.
I plan to solder my 9090 pcb in october. No time for the moment.
Cheers
