Attempt to clone an SP12 (3)

I just received the SP12 PCB.

Another circuit to build and test. However, this becomes quite difficult due to the lack of components.

Fortunately, I will be able to test the majority of the functions of the board thanks to a few tips. Some of the components will only be available from April or May next year: terrible situation!

MIDI SWITCH(2)

The final production version of the PCB has arrived.

Finally, the printed circuit is very small. I have gathered the MIDI ports in packs of four, which will make it easier to cut out the front panel of the case. I brought back the micro-usb power socket on the front panel.

It is planned to be able to connect a PC equipped with a small software to facilitate the configuration of the switch. I don't have a MIDI ID so I decided not to use the MIDI interface for this.

This possibility, like that of also serving as a USB/MIDI interface, is planned for the next version.

Construction of the SP12 core continues. I routed the board and sent it to manufacturing.

I just have to wait for the reception of the printed circuits to begin its assembly and the first tests...
