Nothing fancy here. Just a core (without the midi-in section and the display pots and stuff) and a DIN module cut in half so that it will only fit one shift register.
The case is from ebay and was originally used to controll a DMX light thingy, electrically very simple with a kind of resistor network and some diodes and only 2 cables leading out.
But.. made from sheet metal and therfore very rigid.
My task was to fit the 2 PCBs, a midi socket and a led. Also wrote a very very tiny C program because I couldn’t upload the MB64 app.
It will be used to control ableton live; for example the scene change and stop/ play/ record/ overdub.
And here for the part most of you were waiting for…
Very nice! Sooner or later I will build a footcontroller as well, because it can become very handy, when one hand is tweaking on MBSEQ, the other on MBSID knobs
The case was a foot controller for a light effect machine made by j.collins. Though I think that company doesn’t exist anymore.
What I found out during the build: The oscilator also works with 22pF caps and also the caps around the 7805 are also not very sensitive for examlple is used a 220nf in place of a 330nF
Mios and the app where uploaded on another core since this one doesn’t sport a midi-in optocoupler and socket.

Don’t panic! After that you still have left your mouse, your nose and your ears for programming in MIOS while playing with the sequenzer ! ;D
