OK - so you didn't test it on your Yocto yet?

Not yet Fabio ... Otherwise you could try to swap these new LEDs, very brighter, with others old-style, such as those of the buttons... But it's worth it?
I want to see how looks with the enclosure of our friend Kacper before!

Hi.
I'm Flavio - not Fabio...
It could be worth, if it will bother me even more than now!
I'm curious about Kacper's metal box as well...

@Kacper - any news???

Oops, these italian names are all similar... I'm kidding Flavio!
No news from Kacper for now. I can't wait to give a home to this drum machine too!

hahaha.. and where are you from?

F.

I come from the beautiful country of the sweet life too!

I have just installed firmware update v1.0c, having finally finished my Yocto (it has been waiting for its on/off switch since moving home in October ).

Everything is working great and it looks fantastic so I would like to take the opportunity to say thanks to Vincent for creating such a great kit, ElSchtroumpf for his ever so professional looking enclosure, Gihaume for the lovely wooden sides and everyone who provided help and support on the forum.

Hi everybody.
Any news about updated firmware to add requested features and/or fix bugs?
In fact, is anybody still developing this firmware?
BR,
F.

Thanks !

I can confirm this. Having read about the 220 Ohm resistors making the LEDs too bright I tried some other values and picked 2K2 Ohm. I never installed the 220 Ohm LEDs, I went straight to 2K2. The brightness is nice but the flashing of the 'Mute' LED in 'Expander' mode is very hard to see. I can imagine that would have been better had I used lower resistor values for the LEDs.
