I'm not positive, but it sounds like they probably used one of the old 2xled style backlights, which required the removal of the power led and ran off of its power. If you plan on keeping the old backlight in tact, you may have to do some customizing to get ar power led in there.

It looks like it had an old one from nonfinite, which extended to the left a bit. I replaced it with one from kitsch and now there is almost no plastic frame around the screen hahaha.

It's seriously one of the coolest pieces of gear I've ever seen, I had this exact idea about a month ago. You're a forward thinker wink Have you been giving it a lot of use the past two years?

you need to replace R1 with a resistor appropriate to the color of LED you are using.

the film that is lifting up could possibly be the ground plane, i don't have a PCB in fron tof me to check and see what it might be...  too much heat will cause the layers of a PCB to come apart like that

its easy to replace though.  just switch out the LED, and change the value of R1 if you need to do this.  thats it, if you are modding a stock gameboy.

Thanks! They had a backlight in it, but it wasn't done very well. I didn't really help much by switching it with one from your store but it's a better light at least! I'll give this a go when I get home, thanks again!

Did those 64 buttons alone cost you around $300?

I picked up a clear DMG at a local flea market, and the power LED was missing. I tried soldering in a new simple LED and it's not lighting up! It looks like someone cut out a resistor and what I think was a capacitor(?) just above it. I messed it up trying to solder the new LED on too, and now it looks like a piece of film that was between the original solder and the PCB is lifting up? The DMG still works, I just think I may have ruined any chances for an LED sad Has anyone ever replaced their power indicator LEDs?

Long because a strong mind forgets everything they read and takes in their own meaning(healthy). Weak mind sends there own yin yin or yang yang which cycles back at themselves. Look closely at the positive and dark fractals of light geometry and angles within the good/evil Beyonce GIF. It hilarious and sad all at once. Fears of the unknown fears of death fears of appearance fears of peers just stop it! When we are reunited we can battle up and have fun.

Zuli Masih has just spoken. he wants me to shaare with you that enlightenment occurs when your mind merges with nirvana, with what we Tibetans call the Dharmakaya, the clear light of reality, which is the highest plane of transcendental wisdom and perfect understanding. Enlightenment is really worth seeking. It is the only thing that gives you permanent happiness. When you experience the ecstasy of enlightenment, everything is alright. ~ ॐ ~

I use the 802.

Do you ever feel like you'd want more channels? I have three monosynths and I feel like the doubled up channels would be used up pretty quickly on a 802.

Lazerbeat wrote:

I use it with mono synths going into the ch 1 - 4, stereo synths in 5/6 and 7/8, a spare channel in 9/10 and my PC in 11/12. I also have a couple of things in the stereo returns. I then mute what ever I want to record as my alt bus goes into my sound card.

Just a few quick things I like:

- 4 mono, 4 stereo inputs, and if you are careful there are 2 stereo ins and a tape return to give yourself 3 more stereo channels.

- Very Very solid.

- Extremely reliable.

- I like the EQs a lot.

- alt bus is incredibly useful.

- Knobs not faders, personal preference.

Awesome post, exactly the kind of response I was wanting! big_smile Thanks for your input.

Lets not stop there lets call all of your possessions inferior because Celsius is true Golden Ratio expert and wise and published physics. Why defend yourself and elaborate he is expert and will always win. Might as well bow down. false hopes profit false profits hope fears tear...tears for fears

Thank you so much! Do you have any major complaints about it? Was it a problem not knowing which tracks were muted or not? Would you recommend getting a 1402 simply because of the faders and the Mute LED lights? I don't remember where I heard it, but apparently the 1202 doesn't have indicators that a track is a muted and the 1402 does? I'm worried 14 channels might be too much, and make the thing a hassle to bring to a gig.

Did any of you guys have trouble lugging it around? Also, what kind of setup were you putting through the thing?

Sorry for all the questions, I'm just burning with them! Hahahaha.

celsius wrote:

IMO the Pioneer DJ mixers have garbage pre amps. I'd steer clear of them if you intend to both record and gig with one mixer. If a cross fader isn't absolutely essential to your setup I'd go with what people are suggesting and get a small Mackie desk or something similar.

Yeah coming from turntables I guess I just unconsciously wanted to default to Pioneer, but you're right. It probably won't give me everything I need either. I'm just gonna search for some effects! Thanks a lot! smile

considering what it does and at what price yeah it's pretty much The Shit. it sounds pretty much the same through my monitors as my mackie did.
and nobody needs 14 channels. go for the 402-vlz3 if you're interested in that particular line, it's pretty much perfect in every way (just lacking a usb/firewire interface)

I just can't hear enough good things about Mackie! The 402 looks so great, but I'm worried if I wanted to bring an extra piece of equipment. I think I've narrowed down my choices to the 802, or the 1202 with it's sexy alternate outputs :3
