I’m not 100% sure, but I’m pretty sure sample rate depends on how fast you call it in the script. But they aren’t handled in the audio callback so it’s not really advised to try and do anything audio rate with them.
Seems like you’ve already found the answer. You might be able to fudge something where you hard code the calibration based on trial and error. It wouldn’t work across multiple units but would be ok as a one off if only you are using the script. it would just involve mapping the numbers to match specific voltages.
That very much depends. You could design a front panel as a PCB in KiCad and get it made, design it in a 2d design software like inkscape and get it laser cut, or just trace the original panel onto a piece of aluminium and take to it with a drill and a hack saw. Depends very much on where your skills lie/what you are willing to learn. Plenty of tutorials around for every method (using KiCad, using inkscape, using a hack saw)
I read the cv ins in the audio callback [ProcessAnalogControls() called in that callback first] and you can get pretty fast modulation that way, this is with a blocksize of 96, unsure if you could actually use those as audio inputs.
I’m also looking to make a custom front panel for the Patch.init(). On the website description it says the ‘front panel design is completely open-source,’ but on downloading the design files from the website I could only find the PCB/schematic files. Is there a dimensioned pdf/dxf/etc of the front panel somewhere? Or are people referencing their custom front panels using the circuit board files? I mostly just want to make sure I line up the jacks/holes properly
We made ours from scratch, referencing the mainboard files, here’s a blank kicad template w/ our design removed (note I’m using a Kicad 6.99 nightly build over here, older versions won’t open this).
Did anyone try using the CV out for audio? How did it go? I can imagine getting a decent sample-rate reduction effect out of it without completely destroying the audio. I’ll give it a try with Oopsy when I get my patch.Init() in ~a week. Maybe it won’t work as well as C++ potentially could though.
I just checked and a 1oz letter costs $1.45 to the UK.
I just weighed a similarly sized eurorack front panel and it weighs 0.4 oz.
Obviously I understand that your hands are tied if you go through Shopify, but is there another way to pay for the panel?
Yea the issue is just doing it thru Shopify, weight got rounded up - these are 0.8oz, the design is almost all copper - and there isn’t a simple way to buy normal/letter postage.
I would feel nervous mailing one of these panels internationally in an envelope, so I hadn’t considered that. I think there’s a real chance for it getting damaged that way, but if you want to roll the dice, send me a direct message
