Some good new regarding the Kosmo Mulitool. Everything is working with the Arduino Nano Every so there should be plenty of memory for further development. I managed to set up some basic menu structure that is easily extendable so people can start adding their own stuff. There is not much functionality right now. My first module is a simple arpeggiator which is already working but still in progress. Expect a lot of code changes, this is all in a very early stage of development.
Yes, I havenāt decided yet on this topic. I would like to have something that grants unlimited personal usage but prohibits selling it. Maybe I just write it down like this.
I use Creative Commons BY-SA (4.0 ?)on all my stuff.
It lets folks sell it, but they have to credit me and if they change it they have to share it under the same license.
I think that folks are generally respectful and wouldnāt just take a PCB design, get 100 copies printed, and sell them without asking the creator first.
Also bear in mind that you canāt protect the idea behind a circuit(or Behringer would be out of business long ago) but you can protect drawings of circuits - the schematic itself.
I donāt know, I think I will stick to the personal use license. I have no problem if someone is taking the circuit and designing a product out of it. But here it is only a matter of uploading some files to a PCB factory. I mean there are hundreds of hours of work in this. I want to give something back to the community and not fill someone elseās pockets. This is not restricting a commercial use in general, I just want to be asked.
I guess CC BY-NC license should fit your intention. It allows to copy redistribute and modify your works, but limited to noncommercial use. However it allows you to individually grant commercial permissions.
Well, I usually check licenses when forking repositories, making changes or sending back pull requests. You could read it like this: Your license can be an invitation to others to contribute. IMHO worth the effort.
I take the attitude that (at least for anything Iāve created so far) I am not intending to profit from it. So if someone else does, so what? Iām not losing anything by it. In fact I canāt imagine anyone else making significant money off anything Iāve designed, so I donāt think itās an issue ā but if they do, itās because they put the effort into production, marketing, and so on that I have no interest in. They might as well be rewarded for that effort. Being rewarded for mine would be nice, but I wasnāt expecting to be, so Iām no worse off.
So I usually use CC0, which is tantamount to public domain.
Obviously not everyone will feel the same way. Thatās just my own point of view.
For those who feel otherwise, CC-BY-NC is a good option.
So hope I got it right and this is the official build progress Thread.
Started a year ago to do some stuff, slowly learning from the bottom. Had a long pause from September when I got stuck in my home-country when visiting my family but used to read a lot more about electronics, electronic music, etc.
Annnd a drone, based on LMNCās Super Simple Oscillatorās.
You can stop the oscillators from the switches, CV to each individually or all at the same time.
But this feature works only with lfo source, the sequencer above canāt. This neewby version of mine has also other problems.
More things on the breadboard, more to get some panels soon.
(got some problems with some things so Iām thinking to open a thread āāhelp Amix9āā)
Use the search facility to see if others have asked about similar issues before, and be sure to check the FAQ category. If you still have questions I recommend posting to an existing topic or starting a new topic relating to the specific circuit rather than a āhelp Amix9ā topic. Itāll be more useful for beginners who come along later and are looking for the same answers.
Messing around with the MFOS Noise Toaster faceplate design. Wanted to cut down on the jargon as much as possible so my nephew can figure out how to play it.
@Sonosus Power is a modest MaxWell RT-65B, switching, with +12V 2.8 A & -12V 0.5A
When I started I felt like I want the PSU to not be made by meā¦for safety. Will stick to it a while then build a more proper one.
The āspreadā voltage is added or subtracted to the CV voltage, and sent to the +/- outputs.
For example, it can be used to evenly detune 3 oscillators - I would plug the 1v/Oct signal from my keyboard into the CV, and the 3 outputs into the 3 oscillators. The Spread knob can be used to change the amount of detune, and is controllable with the āspreadā input. I hope that makes sense?
Edit: and yes Iāve been fiddling with the interactive BOM, both pots are b100k.
