UGS-muse preamp GB

[gionag]

Thanks gionag. This is helpful.



Does anyone have a set of pictures of each board from each board from known working preamp? It would be great to have them as reference.



Assuming no one person has a complete set of photos I'd be happy to have people send them to me and I'll arrange them into a single collection. PM me and we can work out a way to transfer the photos.

Relay go on the other side...

@Stones

Your soldering of C6 looks rather suspicious

Transformers received

Good job

It’s just camera shy. I noticed when I took the picture it looked bad so I gave it a good coat of looking @. Turns out it’s a lighting / camera trick but thanks for watching out for my electrons

i git the v2.99 up and running.
now i need to order the second encoder to test.

To all the person I gave the firmware, this is to validate it.
I did not received any feedback yet, is it working well or did you find issues.

Hi Alex

Working well here, have not found any issues so far. But it is lot of things to test.....

Hi Johnny,
Good to read, thanks for your feedback.
Hope you like the new features.

Relay go on the other side...

If I understood correctly, the relay goes on the side that does not have solder mask. Is that correct?

 

[fencki]

this...

...is what i found from previous builds.

 

[fencki]

or...

... this one...

Johnny, Did you remove power form the unit and reapply? I found today a default back to original settings, I made some encoder step changes and renamed an input and turn off and loose the renamed input and default everywhere. Could be something I don’t understand or I manage to break it

Also looks like the encoder names are inverted (if I change the volume rotation it changes the source and vise versa)

 

[gionag]

You have first to save to a setting bank... Then restore it back.
(Quite cumbersome... I know..)

This is the official way to set defaults

“Setting bank” meaning input x? Then assuming I understood I would have to also have it set to turn-on on that same input (instead of last input as example) because I don’t have sw1-6 to press the corresponding swX.... I hope you can follow my thinking as I feel like I am way off base and missing something obvious here.

From menu:
Manage Settings -> save settings -> save settings to 1 (i am pulling that from my memory, i am sure the structure is there, but maybe the naming is totally invented )

then, after you saved succesfully to bank 1 you do :
Manage Settings -> restore settings -> restore setting from 1

DONE

at next power cycle your precious settings would be there waiting for you

Thanks Gionag that solved it.

Alex the encoders are inverted in the rotation setting (if I change the volume rotation it changes the source and vise versa). It’s a high class problem but the only one I found outside of the education Gionag provided. I have not tested triggers as I am waiting on some plugs.

This might help someone. I used an eBay “Goldmund” case (note two version of it exist, I used the all aluminum version). Just with the front panel upside down.

 

[fencki]

wow. very very nice. can you show me which you ordered? you have a link?
thx

 

[Stones]

I ordered from Aliexpress but I don’t recommend using this website, i recently received some very bad quality MC fairings that were also badly damaged in transit and they concluded that a 10% refund was appropriate! Credit card company claim will solve that but should i need to do it.....
Anyhow this chassis seller got me the case in two weeks and with no issues at all.

Rear panel and front badge from Front panel Express (awesome service) let me know if you want the files

 

[ItsAllInMyHead]

Beautiful! Thank you for sharing the source for the chassis.

If the offer is open to everyone, if you'd be willing to share the files for your rear panel, it would be greatly appreciated. Metal work is definitely not my strong suit (nor is CAD even simple versions).
