Check out "www.uCApps.de". I haven't made one yet, but it's
a cool site.

to do experiments with midi controllers it comes in handy to
build a midi-to-voltage interface/converter first because
that takes a voltage to controll any midi parameter instead
of a midi message, so you can wire any electronic circuit to
it to generate midi messages..

wanna know more??

can tell you much about this...

Paia supplies good DIY (do it yourself...;] kits for a
reasonable price...
good for building customized midi controllers with not only
knobs or faders.......i.e. dynamic drum trigger inputs or or
distance measuring circuits so you can build a midi drum
controller that knows you gonnan hit is even before you
actually hit or touch it... wouldnt that be great???

any links to DIY analogue synths?

what about texts on how to read schematics?

FuzZie .. how (relatively) difficult is it to make say a
32step midi drum sequencer, with say 8 different midi
channels?

and maybe even make it into a square (x-axis steps, y-axis
midi channels) and then have knobs for in corresponding x-y
to adjust certain parameters .. mmm.. getting a bit
complicated now perhaps.

ok .. maybe rephrase that .. making a 909esque midi
controller?

something verrry simple... i want to use it as a mixer... so
about 9 knobs would be cool and two crossfaders

I've been considering re-boxing or repainting my phat boy
for a while now... Might be fun. The thing is, the way it is
at the moment actually matches the colour (yellow and Black)
scheme of my soundlab micro mixer and also the first band I
was in.

Also, whilst I'd never sell it I'm really sad about keeping
my equipment in mint condition and with all the
boxes/manuals etc.
