Re: Unable to get sounds from Nava

So if the step keys don't light up at all, could be something to do with the ICs that control the led matrix, along the bottom row of the sequencer section. When you do the EEPROM program, after maybe 10 15 seconds, does it reboot to normal? If yes, then it is programming the eeprom but you problem...

Unable to get sounds from Nava

Hi Everyone, I purchased the kit when the first version was released a few years ago. I soldered everything in but unfortunately I get no sound and was wondering if anyone can help me out. The unit turns on, but the step LED's don't light up. I am able to hold down the Start/Stop before plugging the...

Looking to sell Nava 1.0 - 99.9% finished

Hi everyone, I have a NAVA v1.0 that's 99.9% complete. I worked on it a few years ago and couldn't figure out why it wouldn't turn on and didn't put in the time to work on it further. Willing to pass it along to someone else who has the time to work on it. I also have the case and also knobs for it....

Re: Need Help, Nava Won't Power Up

is the sequencer working? are any LEDs working, the display? if not, you might want to start troubleshooting the sequencer, since you need it to trigger the voices. Nothing turns on. No Display, no led's, nothing. I can hear something cooking when I plug it in though haha, but that just tells me vo...

Need Help, Nava Won't Power Up

Hey everyone, I'm new to this whole DIY thing and I just finished soldering everything together and I'm not getting any action out of it. I checked the power and it's fine, the IO board has the +15V, -15V, and 5V coming out of the wires so that's alright, but I'm not sure where else to check to see ...

hey thanks for telling me this, but I can't find it. The only 10µF I see is a 50V which is this one:

Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitors - Leaded 50V 10uF 20% 5x11mm


is this the one I need?

Bassdrum C10 Capacitor and Pots

Hey everyone! I don't think I've been able to find the capacitor for C10. Could someone tell me which electrolytic capacitor it is within the mouser BOM? I also can't understand which potentiometers to install. I looked them up on google, but I don't understand the difference between 100KA and 100KB...

Re: 5 Wire for Power Supply

For the power wires I re-used the wiring of an ATX power supply out of an old PC. The black/red/yellow/orange ones. For the other connections I purchased this online: http://www.conrad.be/ce/nl/product/068511/Velleman-KMOW-Draad-1-x-020-mm-1-set?queryFromSuggest=true Would I be able to purchase the...
