please.

if your in or near central CA I'll be more than happy to help. I'm a part time mechanic/electrician, and i could get you a job as an electrician asap.

also, id love to buy some stuff on you. pm'd

Grounding seems to work best. I increased the resistance to 10k with no change at all... so now i need a NC button for it to work though tongue I've been using alagator clips to simulate lol. It just seems weird that after fondling with the mod wheel would do such a thing.

I DID however change the 2k resistor to a new one and it worked for maybe a few button presses. it would do 2-3 cycles, then one cycle, then started to go through all of them... wierd...

Hello, havent posted in quite some time wink
I made an Arduinoboy a few hours ago, mainly playing with the MIDI in function with mGB. Everything worked beautifully, until I played with the mod wheel on my microkorg. I played with it for maybe, 30 seconds, going wild with it. and then the DMG crashed. Naturally I rebooted the DMG, only to find that the Arduinoboy only cycles through modes over. and over. and over. So I took out the pushbutton and replaced it. Nothing. Swapped the 2k ohm resistor for a 2.2k ohm resistor, and nothing (also tried a 1k). I then received results after grounding the switch pin of the arduino (pin 3 i believe). It stopped cycling. Is this safe? Is the atmega fried?

LSDJ has been known to crash on labor intensive applications, and is probably best on a GBC or an SP. i cant really see the backlight being a cause for a DMG to crash. maybe change batterys?

if you have one of the later dmg-cpu (blobs) use it for recording. supposedly they have the best sound

Empty it, put something behind the screen protector acting as a light difussor and a big LED inside. Power it up with USB. Ultra cool desk light for less than 5 bucks!

i might try that... i have lots of empty cases tongue

maybe. then try a 500 ohm pot  i suppose. just to dabble.

i think a 1k with maybe a 47 ohm resistor added (just to be safe) should be plenty.
kitsch: how many LED's and what are the rated mA? if you dont mind tongue

that looks pretty nice. I'd buy it just to frame cool If only I knew how to utilize it though... also, a little suggestion. I think you guys should have the option to sell it with the headers. straight out of the box (errr padded envelope wink )

there was an issue with the microcontroller comming up from the socket. i remember he was going to fix this problem if you sent it into him. it could be the reset pin is losing contact to the pull up resistor.

to fix this press the IC deeper into the socket. make sure you press straight down, or you can bend them.

i was thinking this was going to be like a logical analysis or something lol, but non the less is this interesting! how did you take these pics?

why not just replace the psu with a laptop psu or simething?

thanks nitro wink i thought it was really interesting, considering that ive seen similar projects like the nes guitar from getlofi
