preenfm2 and preenfm3 / Re: Yellow OLED : high frequency solution
« on: April 04, 2016, 11:35:14 PM »
The 22 ohms resistor alone does not change anything.

You have to cut the pin 2 of the OLED header then link pins 2 and 15... See the red wire on the picture above and the missing pin between the OLED and the preenfm PCB.
I remove the whole pin but simply cutting it on the OLED side will work.

Then yes it's really worth it...

I created a new thread for the solution i found.

There must be something weird with the KX25. Maybe regarding the timing.

Recording and playing it back, or routing through MidiOX probably fixes that which make it work.

Sorry, I cannot do anything without trying a KX25.

The only thing i can say is to use the Preenfm2 arpegiator instead  ;)

Situation : Yellow OLED display have a big inductor that sends a 13.5Khz sin wave in the preenfm2 audio path.

Yellow OLED solution

I spent some time trying to find a solution to this problem, and i have somthing really efficient.
Look at the After and Before screenshot.

If you have a PCB R5d (or +) : solder a 22ohm at the "oled" position and go to step 4 directly... DON't do step 1,2,3.

If you have a PCB R5c (or -) : step 1,2 and 3 is for you.

The idea is to put a resistor 22 (ohm) between the LCD and the preenfm2 5V.
As there's no direct possibility, we'll use the Led+ pins (pin 15 of the LCD) that is not used with OLED display and where we can insert a resistor.

Step 1 : put a 22 ohm in the 68 ohm slot... this resistor is between the 5v and the pin 15 of the display.
Step 2 : cut the pin 2 of the OLED so that it's disconnected from the preenfm2 5V.
Step 3 : Link the pin 2 and 15 on the Display. Now the Oled is powered throught the 22 ohm resistor and get around 4v.
Step 1 to 3 makes the parasit frequency much more sensitive to shield. I think it removes almost totally the electronic noise but the magnetic noise is still there.

Step 4 : build a shield with many alumnium sheets that you use for food. you may have that in your kitchen.
The more you put the more efficient it is.
Take a 22cm x 22cm, fold 1 time then 2 times horizontaly, same thing vertically. You get 16 layers.
Do that with 4 sheets to get at least 64 layers.
Put that in a plastic bag (antistatic may not hurt) and add some tape. Be sure no aluminium will touch the contact.

Step 5 : put your shield under the screen.

Step 6 : Let me know :)

Congrats for the preenfm  :)

If you save a midi file from the KX25 and plays it to the preenfm, does it freeze the preenfm ?
If yes can you send me the midi file ?

Hi,

Yes it would be better to initialise member variables. Even if the compiler clear them to 0.

Answer to your second question. Yes there is a problem every 4000000000 notes.
If you play 10 notes per seconds without stopping, that will take 12 years so that a younger notes is cut instead of a older one.
That's acceptable  ;)

Best,

Yes sin^2 seems to be useless.
All the sin variant are not great and take some memory. I only keep them for preset compatibility since the first versions of the preenfm1.
But now you have user waveforms....   ;)

preenfm2 and preenfm3 / Re: Wil PCB's and MCU ever be available here?
« on: March 21, 2016, 10:08:30 AM »

Yes they will.
I'll order them this week. Should be available in one month.

Hi Trimix,

Take a look here :

You should find what you're looking for in the "case" part.
Let me know,

Thanks a lot, I never realized that.

I don't have plan to modify the PCB.
It's not perfect, but i don't see any potential problem such as the one you describe.
Which pads are you talking about ?
I'm not aware of anybody that did not sucessfully build his preenfm2 ;)

Best,

Xavier

preenfm2 and preenfm3 / Re: more CC control
« on: March 01, 2016, 12:06:06 PM »

Seems like it's a common request.
I don't have much free time for the moment, but if any dev wants to take a look, this is very simple to add any CC.

Hi,
No the preenfm2 only read the sysex files that it finds in /pfm2/dx7 folder.

Thanks for the details  ;)
I'm glad it works because debuging that kind of hardware problem is not easy.
