I just built my first LSDJ-MC2 and am having a little trouble with it. Any suggestions are much appreciated. Right now I can power on the unit, pass POST, and...
It might not be it, but have you connected the diode near the optocoupler in the right direction? /nitro2k01 ... YAHOO! GROUPS LINKS ... -- The blog of...
Firestarter should be able to answer all questions conserning this project, because he is awesome! and he helped me out so much when i was building mine, but...
Thanks for the fast responses. I switched the diode, did not resolve. I switched the midi cables, did not resolve either. Right now I'm testing with my...
How frustrating. Every part of the midi circuit checks out. I have continuity in all the right places. I replaced the 6N138 and I tried a different midi...
Check again, turn the diode around again, try to swap the 2 midi-lines and finally, replace the 6n138. Also check if the line from the 6n138 is connected on ...
Sorry, Yahoo's rich-text editor beta is truely a beta. Anyway, my real post: The components are all now back to the way they are on the schematics. I am...
The diode near the opto-coupler is turned correctly, so that's not the problem. Have you tried putting the 6N138 the other way? Weird enough, it seems that...
The mark on the 6N138 is there, just hard to see in that picture. I turned it around just to doublecheck, but it did not resolve it so I put it back. Thanks...
It looks like your chrystall might be too far away from your PIC. I had the same problem come to think of it, and i remember it was murder getting it all back...
Ok, so I tried replacing the resistors, no difference. I tried moving the crystal closer, and replacing it, no difference. I tested every point through out...
Yo beowulfe, it doesn't matter if a gameboy is connected or not. Generally it must work without. So what if you sent your interface to somebody? Where are you...
Damn. That's not good news. I live in the US in Connecticut. I'm close to NYC if anyone is there. Sorry to be clogging the boards. I'm dying to get gigging...
is anyone building these interfaces and selling them? i would be interested in paying someone for the time, labor and costs to produce a working interface for...
... Just thought i would say that, i should have mentioned this before sorry- but you will need to move the 22pf capacitors along with the crystal so they are...
I've been trying to build one of these things for, I don't know, a year or something. I find electronics to be one of the most frustrating things ever. I have...
Beowulfe again, still hammering away at this. The midi does not seem to be getting stuck at the optoisolator, so I'm checking further up. Does anyone have a...
What kind of burner did you use? Most burner software (Even for homebuilt burners) come with read or verify option. Also make sure your programmer is HVP...
Hello, Just email me your address and I'll send you one. The server GameboyMall has been on has been having issues. Hopefully that can get sorted out soon. If ...
hey, firestarter! i've been reading your manual really carefully, and found a place, where you warn not to connect 2 gameboys on the same cable as it might ...
Hello Sorry for bothering everyone with possibly dumb questions. Have recently purchased Firestarters LSDJ MC2, have got it to respond with my midi keyboard,...
Hey Tristan, LSDJ is not capable to record what you play. For that there is only manual editing possible, not realtime recording. Mabye it could be an idea for...
Hi all! Is there anyone (appreciated from germany) selling a LSDJ cartridge? greetings Martin (020200) -- http://www.noderecords.de http://www.2063music.de...
Hey everybody, Sorry to bug you again, but I am still having midi problems on my MC2. I have just built another one from scratch and am having exactly the...
The MC2 PIC can't be programmed with a so called LVP. (Low Voltage Programmer) Doing so will make it work halfway, so that some features don't worx. However, I...
