I've added a picture of the wiring on the back of my PLED module to my webpage - http://www.colinfraser.com/p3/p3-build-6.htm This module fits in exactly the same mounting points as the previous one, so aside from the cap and resistor (ugly...) it's a drop-in replacement. If I ha

No pictures of the PLED wiring tonight I'm afraid. Need to stick the digicam batteries in the charger, and buy some new ones that hold their charge for more than a few hours sometime... But I had a look at the mounting pads, and they're not actually connected to any of the tracks

Hi Colin, Most likely I'll receive the PLED module tomorrow. What should I do to install it. A baby roomate broke my LCD module, so now I can only see half of the display. Take care with babies how like to tweak knobs!! Cheers, Roel

Hi Guys, I'm a happy bunny today :->) Believe it or don't. The solution to my sysex woes, i.e. not being able to reflash my P3 was all down to the opto -isolator on the midi input of the P3 board. I had the specified 6N139 device originally, and even though I could pass midi data

Hi Colin & All, Well, I'm waiting for my Hammond case to be finished by Steve Thomas, but I couldn't wait to see if the boards worked. Well, I've lashed the whole thing up over my workbench and for the last couple of nights, I've been playing around to make sure everything's work

Folks, v3.79 beta firwmare is in the files section at Yahoo. This adds a couple of new features. First is an extra menu for user config options, which you can access from the same page as the Sysex dumping. These are on/off values that modify the normal sequencer behaviour. Inclu
