Hi guys,

I’ve&nbsp;finished building the base of a mb6582 (including&nbsp;display) and&nbsp;so far&nbsp;everything&nbsp;seems to work as it should (Woohoo!). However, after reading Hawkeye’s CS tutorial,&nbsp;I’ve&nbsp;delayed&nbsp;soldering&nbsp;components onto&nbsp;the control surface PCB until the front panel that I’ve ordered&nbsp;arrives.

Until then, I’d like to rig up&nbsp;a minimum&nbsp;CS using a breadboard and switches/encoders for basic parameter changes (menu scrolling,&nbsp;etc). Is this possible, and if so how?&nbsp;Even with TK’s [instructions](http://www.ucapps.de/midibox_sid_manual_fp.html)&nbsp;I’m not quite sure how to&nbsp;go about it.&nbsp;

You won’t find any clones. Your best chance is to contact Tim at&nbsp;[Midibox Shop](http://midiboxshop.bigcartel.com/product/mb-6582-board-set)&nbsp;and be patient.

Use [http://www.midibox.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=default\_encoder\_assignments](http://www.midibox.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=default_encoder_assignments) to map the menu encoder connections.

and [http://www.midibox.org/dokuwiki/lib/exe/fetch.php?media=mb-6582:mb-6582\_cs\_din\_wiring.pdf](http://www.midibox.org/dokuwiki/lib/exe/fetch.php?media=mb-6582:mb-6582_cs_din_wiring.pdf) to map the buttons you need.

The buttons are in a matrix you just need the buttons and a diode each. No matrix on the encoders. You would just jump off the headers on the main board&nbsp;to your temporary cs board. All you need for buttons&nbsp;are the menu&nbsp;button and the 5 select buttons. Everything else you can access from the software.

Thank you Gerald. I’ll give that a go.
