]]> http://www.analoguebus.com/blog/2009/10/27/new-case-shots/feed/ 0 My new case from SynthCase.com http://www.analoguebus.com/blog/2009/10/25/my-new-case-from-synthcase-com/ http://www.analoguebus.com/blog/2009/10/25/my-new-case-from-synthcase-com/#comments Sun, 25 Oct 2009 19:28:17 +0000 bryan http://www.analoguebus.com/blog/?p=156 I know there has been an explosion of insaneness on the forums lately over Randal’s cases at SynthCase.com. Here are some quick pics of my case I got yesterday. I have not been able to properly put everything together, but just wanted to drop in a few modules and act silly and add two of my 128 Monomes at the bottom. The pics are really cheesy from my cellphone. Nothing is really tightly bolted together and the power supplies and distros are just sitting in the bottom of the case. Hopefully will have time tomorrow eve to finish it up.

Mind you all of them are currently missing cables.

 


What do you think non-bananafied people?

So I just need to build the digital I/O mux/demux and then hook it all up. Then begin writing software all over again because of internal hardware system change. Will post pics tomorrow. The prototype is being mounted into a RadioShack enclosure. Actually two of them are being build so two of us here at AnalogueBus can work on different sections on the software. Only one of the prototypes will have the TKB/Programmer style manual gate for a track. Neither of them will use the final design of ball bearing matrix buttons and RGB LEDs with light pipes. The control surface is a whole different project due to complexity. We have two other styles of control surface though as backups.

(WARNING LOTS OF PICTURES) http://www.analoguebus.com/blog/2009/06/25/it-has-been-a-while-since-we-have-posted-sorry-warning-lots-of-pictures/ http://www.analoguebus.com/blog/2009/06/25/it-has-been-a-while-since-we-have-posted-sorry-warning-lots-of-pictures/#comments Thu, 25 Jun 2009 20:28:07 +0000 bryan http://www.analoguebus.com/blog/2009/06/25/it-has-been-a-while-since-we-have-posted-sorry-warning-lots-of-pictures/ It has been very hectic around AnalogueBus!! Along with our normal jobs and lives we try to squeeze every second into getting this company going. So far it is starting to go well. Several projects are now full steam ahead on the prototypes, contacts have been made in the industry, lots of learning has been done, built lots of cool stuff, and bought some new fun toys!

So the best way to sort of show what is going on really quickly is a bunch of pictures, I will come back and update later in several posts each project and its status.

 

Here are a bunch of pictures of our current AnalogueBus (office/studio/workspace)
