So of course things move quickly in the world of zynthian and so it if time to move on to the zynthian-pedal.local as a way of taming the 12 string acoustic with two entirely different pick up technologies in it…
We have an active piezo from fishman & an entirely passing humbucker coil also from fishman, which describes itself as high impedance. THis is all rendered up via a stereo tip & ring. Sharing @riban s abhorance of all domestic audio connectors, I can use the inside of the pedalboard as a place to do the convertions to audio injector in’s with a volume control !!!
Up to now these have had to come into the zynth with laughably different levels but, as I say things move on, so we have the possibility of a little experimentation.
It appears all is not well in the land of sequences . . .
I thought you were trying to avoid mentioning the step sequencer… Maybe you are suffering similar issue that someone else reported about file versions. I changed the .zynseq file format and added a version number and conversion code but if you subsequently switch back to the old software this may break. You could just delete (or backup) the patterns.zynseq file to get it working.
So, of course, we have the problem of mounting them…
To that end I need two metal bars to go throu’ the two holes, and looking at what I have around I find 30Amp copper cable, but how does one get is straight for the 530 mm lengths needed . . . ?
Away to the copious wyleu towers garage to employ a bit of brick technology . . . .
This is a serious bit of Audiometric research and development not some Tixylixs induced rave in the less salubrious back streets of Manchester where life is cheap and foam is frequently unleashed on marathon performances of the Birdies Song. . . .
Oh my god !! Like Bernard Palissy burning the furnitures of his kitcheen to find the secrets of enamel, @wyleu will destroy his garage door to build his Zynthian pedalboard !!
Call the doctor, the priest, the police, the exorcist… anyone…
But what does the multimillimeter measure ? Velocity ? Or did you add a pressure sensor ?
and why is it around 3V when you don’t press, and almost 5v when you press much, this I can understand ok…
But then why does it go below 3V, which I supposed to be the volatge at rest (or at least, what seemed to me as being the voltage at rest) ?
Well one of the things that isn’t obvious as the digital output and the led cunningly hidden in the video comes on at the bottom of the travel and that’s what will be doing the pedal board operation.
Making mounting and positioning easy is the next objective and I have a plan for that and then its wiring it all up.
Obviously with a pi there are only the option of digital interface without stuff…
… But I have a cunning plan once it does pedal board things…
The plan is to supply the OV via the chassis thus freeing up the wire to be used for the digital output. It’s becoming a bit of a rats nest at the moment but re orientating the Power distribution should resolve some of this. . .
I need to make a connection between the mounting hole and the OV connector which could well be a little bit fiddly . . .
Which ehen carefully hidden between the B & C keys means we have a kick and effective way of bypassing all the zynthian goodness for guitar still plays mode all with a stealthy kick . . .
