Hi
There is a whole pile of components missing
Now I know exactly what they are
Originally thought about rebuilding / copying the missing parts from the SDS1000M
Having acquired a SDS1000 that had MIDI I have not bothered
I might give it a try now
Brian

the one i have has midi and works great.
it's hard to believe they would have SDS1000's in the world with MIDI jacks but no midi.
are you one the wrong midi channel? it defaults to channel 1.
also, it only plays sounds on keys 60, 62, 64, 66, 68
PS, i found instructions for adding midi to a 1000:
don't remember where i got these, i never did the mod myself.
Install the following parts:
R5, R6, R7 - 220R resistors
R17 - 390K resistor
R18, R19, R20 - 8M2 resistors
R177, R182, R250, R251, R252 - 270K resistors
R246 - 220K resistor
R262, R263, R264, R265 - 1K0 resistors
R266, R267, R268, R269 - 2K2 resistors
C9, C10, C11, C12 - 1n0 capacitors
C30, C44, C58, C78 - 0.1uF capacitors
D42, D43, D44 - each 3 x 1N4148 diodes in series
(mount two sticking vertically out of the board and
one across the top)
D54, D64, D65, D66, D67, D68 - 1N4148 diodes
D57 - BAT85 schottky diode
IC6 - 74LS14 hex inverter
IC7 - 4N28 optoisolator
IC16 - LM324 quad opamp
P11, P12 - 8 pin DIN sockets, pcb mounting
L1 - wire link in 0v position
L2 - wire link in +5v position
There is also a 470R resistor suggested between
pins 4 and 14 on IC6. There was a space on the
circuit board for mine, but on some versions you
may have to solder the resistor on top of the chip.

Hi
I have an SDS1000 and a SDS1000m
They both have a full set of 5 pin DIN sockets and working MIDI
I have seen a SDS1000 without the sockets so NO MIDI
I have also seen a SDS1000m with a full set of 5 pin DIN sockets but with NO MIDI functions
I am still trying to figure it out
If it has a 5 pin DIN socket plug a MIDI lead into it and see what you get
The results will be: -
It works fine
It does not work in which case: -
It is NOT MIDI capable
OR
It is MIDI capable but is not working properly
Hopefully that covers all eventualities
Brian

Thanks Nick,
How the H do you know if it has a midi or not?
