Folks, P3 v3.89 beta is in the files section. This version needs a sysex backup/restore before/after installation as I had to move some of the pattern data around to fit things in. It adds a new sub-menu to configure the accumulators per pattern. You'll find the 'Acc conf' option

So, if your ordering from farnell too, then you may as well look out for them there: 22-0960 4 PIN CONN 20-0255 5 PIN DIN Socket The 20-9365 variant (270 degrees rotation) din socket is in stock. Julian. [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]

Folks, I've updated the bill of materials in the files section at Yahoo, to include to couple of extra components I added to the main board. These are R27 and C15 - a 10 ohm resistor and 10uF cap, used for de- coupling a PLED display module so it doesn't dump crap on the supply l

Am i right in thinking that the p3 isnt that fussy as to its power supply? Is it that pretty much any old 9v supply is suitable? I always seem to have a stack of spare novation supplies: theyre 9v dc at 600ma. Im assuming that one of these would be fine? I have no idea if theyre

Well, three more in the legendary "P3_Stoned" series are up. So now there are 30 of the feckers. None are too remarkable - but you'll be expecting that now. As ever they were knocked up whilst in a relaxed state of mind hence some of the oddness, sudden lurches in tempo or mood a

Hi there, I remember some mention of having to shave a slight bit off one of the boards, in order to fit them in the hammond case. Is this right, or am i mistaken (often am)? If so, itlld be clever of me to do this before i start soldering stuff in place. Any more info? Cheers, J

Hi Colin, now that the second run boards are in, can you give an estimate on how mucht a ready built P3 would cost ? Also, did anyone find a solution for making a rackmountable completed unit like the prototype ? All the best, Tom

Folks, All the second run kits which had been paid in full by yesterday are now shipped. Keep an eye on the mail box ;-) There are some slight changes to the main board in this run - an extra mounting hole, and the de-coupling for a PLED display on board. I'll update the construc

Hi all, LATEST NEWS ------------------ I learned from Stooge Larry yesterday that a 10 unit wide Stooge panel (that will fit in a 19" rack when using the MOTM rack rails) is possible, even with the single square hole for the LCD. So that is good news. I'm not going as fast as I w
