MOD2 Prototype test | Seeed XIAO RP2350 based Drum module for eurorack


video upload by HAGIWO

":Almost all of the programs were generated by ChatGPT.
Since the circuit has been simplified, there are few CV inputs and the audio is output via PWM, but the RP2350 is fast enough that even a simple program can produce reasonably good sound.

Although there are no plans to use it as a VCO, it also supports V/oct.

"Specifications

Eurorack standard 3U 6HP size

Power supply: 10mA (±12V), 20mA (5V)

2-oscillator digital VCO using Seeed XIAO RA4M1.

Supports V/oct, and the waveform can be selected from 16 types of wavetable.

The frequencies of OSC1 and OSC2 are always in a relative position relationship, and detune and overtones can be added by shifting the frequency of OSC2.

OSC1 FREQ POT: Adjusts the reference frequency of OSC1 and OSC2
OSC2 FREQ POT: Adjusts the frequency of OSC2 relative to OSC1. Can be set from 0 oct to 2 octs above.
OSC2 volume POT: Adjusts the volume of OSC2
OSC2 volume CV in: CV input for adjusting the volume of OSC2
Wave push SW: Selects the wavetable. 16 types in total.
V/oct IN: V/oct input, range is 0~5V.
OUT: Audio output, range is Vpp10V.

The selected waveform information is stored in EEPROM. When the power is turned on again, the last selected waveform is selected."

"SN#1346 Version 1.6 Firmware

This unit is 98% mint. There are a few minor scratches on keys and metalwork - but that's it. I would give the internals a 98% as well. All PCBs removed and thoroughly scoured out the Norlin problems. Everything works flawlessly."

How to Power up to 5 x Roland Boutiques from one USB Plug


via myVolts

Use CSRBSP at checkout to get 3.00 GBP off either a Roland Boutiques splitter cable or a Roland Boutiques splitter cable plus PSU, it’s good till Friday 31st March 2017.

Details:

"Power up to 5 Roland Boutiques from just one USB plug!

This unique myVolts 5-way power splitter lets you power up to five Roland Boutiques at once, from one USB mains power plug.

It's compatible with all the Roland Boutiques in the range - including the JX-03, VP-03, TB-03, JP-08, JU-06, TR-09 and A-01.

Option '5-way splitter PLUS PSU' includes the 5-way splitter PLUS a myVolts 5V 2000mA USB power supply adaptor, to power from one to five Boutiques.

Option '5-way splitter only' includes only the 5-way splitter, you'll need to supply your own 5V USB power adaptor. Each Roland Boutique draws up to 400mA of current, so if you want to power 5, you need a USB power adaptor capable of delivering 2000mA - like the one we bundle with it.

Cable features:

Main cable is 1 metre in length
Cable splits into 5 male plug connectors to fit the Boutiques, each one is 0.7m in length
myVolts-branded band keeps the cables tight
Canary yellow cabling makes it easy to spot amongst your other gear
Comes with a myVolts-branded Velcro cable tie
PSU features:

5V DC voltage output
2000mA (or 2A) maximum current output. Each Boutique draws only the current it needs from the max current available.
Worldwide voltage input AC100-240V, 50/60Hz
Worldwide plugs faces for UK / EU / US / AUD included - snap on and off in seconds."
