I was just given a Dell Model RT7D20. I tested it this time. lol...it Works!I cut the cord to see what wire colors I'm using.
Brown
White
Green
Red (more pink than red I think)

I'll take a few pics later, if needed to show what the KB and wires looks like. Any leads to what wire color guide to go by?

possibly you could ask artists who have already done megaman / other game mixes for their .sav and then work from there? it would be collaboration for sure, but i'll bet you would get some takers. i know beware has some stuff, and i'd advise searching through 8bc for other artists' tracks.


also, since you live in MA you need to go to this:

WOW..wtf? I'm sooooo glad I posted this thread! Thanks for linking me to that! Wow, I never knew about no "chip" scene in Mass. How Cool!?! Well, I'm going to do my best on getting down there and partying like it's 1985! And Animal Style is going to be there!!! I just started to get into his stuff! lol Well I should get off the computer now and start composing... I wanna hopefully have a tune to play during open mic. haha yeah right... I'll try my best tho!!!

WHAT?!? Finally some fellow Massholes unite to do something amazing!!! If I can get a ride from Springfield I'm in!!! Never knew there was a "chip" scene in my home state... of course it's Boston, but better than nothing I guess..lol Hope I can make it smile

3 is my fav... but all very nice indeed! smile btw Animal style... I listen to your song "DMG guitar" everyday! It almost brings a tear to my eye! I think your one of the best chip artists, so far...

Yeah...it's a lot of work I'm sure...but worth it to me! Any other tips on making this process easier??? I'm strictly using LSDJ on a plain old Grayboy- no added peripherals or programs, just the way I like it! smile

Got that trouble too...That and my computer says I need "administrator access" to do it. I can't figure out how to bypass that on my computer, but that's besides the point. (got my computer 2nd hand from a friend of a friend...not sure what the administrator p/w is, but I never needed until I tried plugging in LSDJ through a usb)

...Keyboard is probably shot. Third time I did this exactly like the diagram above (Thretris's). I'll have to test the keyboard first, the next time I try this. Thanks again everyone!

hey now I'm a noob. What do you expect? lol I'm having enuff trouble just learning how to master soldering wires....my keyboard is supposed to follow Thretris's color codes for the SK-8100 (he confirmed this w/ me) I'm also using the official DMG-07 cable, so it should be easy, right? hahaha.I'm going to spend the rest of the night getting the damn thing to work. I'll try to post a pic of the wires, somewhere on the web and everyone can point n laugh at my hack wire job! Thanks for those that stuck w/ me on this one! I will succeed! wink

Brown wire from dmg cable seems to be the facor... I'm still stumped

SK-8100:

--KB--          --DMG--
green     -      green
white      -      blue
red         -      brown
yellow     -      yellow               (that's how I had my wires, which is the supposed to by right?)

So we can agree that DMG blue carries the +5v...And the green should go with green and yellow with yellow...right??? So here's the problem...The brown wire (DMG) is what screws everything up i guess. No matter what wire (from KB) I hook up to the brown (DMG) things get all screwed up! I'm getting frustrated with all the error, what do you think is wrong with my set up??

Regarding the PURGE. Maybe you're using a relatively new version?

2008-12-26: v3.9.2

* replace project screen "purge sequencer/instruments" with "free unused data,"
   which also frees unused tables, synths and waves.

About the lsdj keyboard. Sounds like you've got the wires wrong?

I believe the version I'm using is the most current one as of the Jan. '10. Doesn't seem to have the "free unused data" option? Is this going to be a big problem in hooking up a keyboard???

As far as the keyboard assembly...no camera btw so I can't show you the problem.... I followed Thretris's keyboard color code from his tutorial on the sk-8100...I started fresh twice already, but I'm def. willing to give it another whack. So I'll just take it all apart again. I also just grabbed a new continuity tester, now what is your best advice on testing the wires without hacking up the wiring on the pcb ends???? you know what I mean? can you place a clip one end of the tester to the dmg cable thru the male piece then hook up the other alligator clip to the wires next to the pcb on the keyboard? I'm new at using these testers....
