Installed P6retro board

Installed P6retro board

2005-11-17 by Louis van Dompselaar

Just wanted to let the list know that the P6 MIDI board found here:
http://www.angelfire.com/geek/srlabs/p6retro2.html
is working great.

I couldn't find a hex dip switch that fits the board as it should.
I have another one ready but I don't think I'll bother and just
hardwire the thing to channel 1.  It's connected to an Opcode Studio 5
anyway, so I can reroute when necessary.

Well done!

Fine! As you might see I made the PCB design for it, so I am happy that it 
works for other people too...

Sorry for that. I took a switch that I had... If you want I can look which 
exact type it is so that you can have a look for it...

Otherwise you could also wire an externally mounted hexadecimal thumbwheel 
switch! I also made this for my Poly61 (with another midi interface designed 
completely by myself).

I built retrofits for both my (sold) Poly and my Trident,
both work just fine.
