Analogue-sequencer

Hi folks, 

Well aside from getting a few address lines in the wrong order (fixed 
in software) the test PCB CPU board is up and running.
I haven't finished the pot and switch boards, but they are very 
simple so shouldn't be a problem. I *will* fully test them before 
ordering multiple boards, of course.
I aim to get the user manual and bill of materials finished at the 
weekend.

So the question now is, how many people want a set of boards in the 
first run ?

The cost of the boards + CPU will be somewhere under 85 ukp, 
depending on the number of orders. More orders = cheaper boards.
The rest of the components to complete a sequencer will cost another 
100ukp or so, plus the cost of a case, which varies significantly 
depending on how you go about it. The prototype case cost 25 ukp, 
plus a couple of hours with a nibbler and a drill.

If you're ready to buy a set of boards now, let me know by private 
email to sequencer@colinfraser.com
Please don't tell me you want a set of boards if you will change your 
mind later, as that will just hold up the order for others.

Once I know how many sets will be ordered, I'll get a quote from the 
PCB makers, confirm the price, and then take payment.

Cheers,

Just a reminder that I'll be placing the order for the first run of 
boards early next week, so if you want a set and haven't mailed me 
yet (mail to sequencer@colinfraser.com) please let me know soon.

Hi Folks,

There's going to be a slight delay on the boards.
I've made some final changes to the main board layout to support the 
extra switches and LEDs for key and knob function select, added extra 
pads to support 3 different types of key switch, plus I'm having the 
individual boards de-panelised from the large board.
I've considered just going ahead with the full order for boards, but 
I'm too paranoid about making a mistake on a large order, so I've 
decided to get one more test board set of the final, final layout.
I'll keep you posted. 

Cheers,
Colin f

Hi all/ Hi Colin

Well, that's no problem for me. I'd rather you go to the trouble to double
check than try to rush and then discover something that was 'forgotten' and
needs some ugly work-around!
