Success!

PreenFM successfully constructed yesterday. Very impressed by resistor sheet and clear instructions over all. Wasn't sure about screws and spacers for LCD but I guess the slant helps seeing the screen. First attempt at powering up via computer USB resulted in lots of digital noise but now clean as a whistle once connected to a mains adapter. Wasn't sure about transferring sysex to upload presets but downloaded MIDI-OX and SendSX. MIDI-OX got stuck (repeatedly) at preset #119 with a buffer error, but SendSX worked fine. Good range of presets. Overall, v happy with PreenFM which is now sitting next to my equally excellent Mutable Instrumemts Shruthi.

Cheers,
David

Great news, congrats and thanks for the feedback 

Strange that Midi-OX cannot upload the bank.... good to know.
Don't hesitate to post your music using the PreenFM.
