I need to know if there is someone out there who would be willing to let me send them my SoundLab (along with that new-fangled and snazzy mini-controller) and figure out what the heck is wrong with it ...

Sorry to hear that. That actually sucks a lot. I've never had a major problem with them and have actually been surprised at how well some of the stuff I get from them works. Weird. I wish you better l ...

Hey Hackbox,
Does www.mouser.com not ship to Aussie Land? The prices on Farnell look astronomically high. The NJM#13700D's on mouser are RoHS compliant and only $.77 (US). I also know that futurlec.c ...

As for buying parts you can use mouser.com or my favorite- http://www.futurlec.com/index.shtml

May I recommend my favorite seller: http://www.futurlec.com/index.shtml. They have very inexpensive knobs and since they are based out of Thailand, I'm sure they'd ship most anywhere. (Unless your res ...

Maybe someone addressed this and I just didn't see it, but is the amperage of the voltage regulators or the wall wort an issue? My VR's are 12V @ 1A. I have an inky feeling I should lower it to 500mA, ...

So I've almost finished with my mini-controller, but I've come to a few spots on the board that have little abbreviations by them, but I don't know where they go or what they do.
On the far left of ...

So I have my lovely little sound lab built and am building the mini controller to go with. I'm having trouble with getting the sounds right and think it may be because I thought I was making an ingeni ...
