Hi,
Last summer, during the cleaning of my office, my company threw it in the trash
a smd tube of SSM216. For me it was a sign to start building an Ambika.
The progress of the work was slow until I found the ideal case : a vintage Fluke
counter/frequency-meter, with ideal dimensions for front panel, boards and connexions.
Note It wasn’t an easy project and the building on proto-board with a lot of wire bring
some issues : SPI bus loaded with all the slave (voices and SD card) is very dirty, with
big overshoot on signals. So I was forced to slow down the speed of SPI transmissions
during the SD card access.
For the audio signal path I used this time coax wire, without cross talk and noise :))
Thanks again and again Olivier, for this amazing synth and all your stuff.
I hope meet you again, probably in Paris @ModularSquare, for a public presentation of yours new realizations :))))
And now I will sell my poly800, if someone in Paris interested :))
@pichenettes: I like Schrab’s etched enclosures, I dream of doing such pretty cases
And I hope I do not hurt you by not buying your own PCB, but I prefer to
feel free with found spare component, sometimes make some changes,
and be able to adapt front panel for DIY cases…
How did I know this would be coming? Respek knuckles to you nicoo! How in the hell do you even plan this stuff out? Serious respect. Between you and schrab you two could build the next module for the International Space Station out of recycled coke bottles, discarded aluminum foil, and old transistor radios.
