...running it threw a loop sation gets interesting along with using a few other cartridges [deathray & trippyH].

Last week I bought Jamman Express XT for this (among other things). It is great little pedal.
Currently in a process of doing MIDI -> JamSync box - will post results later.

Check this
I was thinking about powering DMG with 9V battery which would save half of the battery compartment for mods. Not sure about battery life tho.

Nice! Does it also output standard midi on teensy uart? Or: would it be hard to tweak the code for it?

Want to fit a 3.7v lithium polymer batter and charge circuit to one of my pockets.


I've done this:

I used lipo similar to this and this as charging circuit.

I had to move a few caps elsewhere because of space constraints but it all depends on what kind of battery you get. There is also some dremel work to be done.
The battery life is surprisingly good and I don't have any problems with EMS + MGB anymore.

OK this must be the best discovery in the month. I've been looking for a way to send MIDI-IN  to the monotron for ages and didn't find ANYTHING!
Do you know of any tutorial/documentation in English about this? Also, I see that is a japanese website. Can we buy directly from there?

I think so - there are international shipping rates mentioned. You can switch to semi-english version of that site (top right corner). There is also link to construction guide in the item description. Look closer wink

There are mods for midi in - you basicaly only need CV and gate and those solder pads are labeled on monotron pcb. You can even buy a kit.

You can get the kit here:

Hello
I think QY10 is not enough.
i think you can only send notes on/off and one another midichange message thru touchpad (0-128 value)
I don't think it sends clock, but I didn't try song play
Maybee I'm wrong
bye

Aren't you talking about SU10?

...The only other option for sync really is to send MIDI clock from the Groovesizer and sync other gear to it...

Or you could make another version with midi in and no midi out. And multiplexing leds / buttons / pots is always an option.

Cool stuff. How's the battery life?
I did something similar with GBP but the charger is inside. This one. Makes it easy to charge everywhere.

I'd use this:

You don't really need the pots, but since it's such simple build I'd add them for more functionality you might find usefull later (fading etc.). You'd have to use a pair of dual audio pots. You might also do sort of pan control...

I could never be bothered to patch LSDJ with alternative fonts. Terminus is going to be the first one. Thanks!

Easy way to do this: LTC variable clock speed with LDR.

What?! Not theremin antennas for PU1 and PU2?! sad

Hm, this one looks nice.
I've got parts in the mail for something with similary simple interface only with midi clock sync option and no overdub.
Based around arduino pro mini and ISD recorder ic so you get the idea of sound quality...
