Funk The Matrix : Case Design

Yeah I've probably gone wildly over on depth, but the PCBs stack vertically behind one another.

  1. lol, read 2 posts down, gotta keep abreast of ting man - all analogue matrix style patterniser. It's Wickham brainchild, the board just shows where the controls are, nothings been designed yet. Wick reckons it'd be pretty easy though and cheap too - the sixteen Lorlin 12-way rotary switches are only about a quid a pop...

  3. i thought encoders were digital bad boys that went all the way round infinitely?? these only turn from end to end and have 12 settings, one for each note of a single octave scale. the 3-way switches below select the octave.

  4. As a sidenote, because it's analogue it would only ever be 16-step and the switches are too big to double up. I'm thinking of putting a switch at the top for MASTER/SLAVE and a port on each side to plug it into one or a chain of slave units and run them all off the one master unit.... wonder if that's possible
