Alternative control and recording.

metacom:
Spent 6 days in a darkened room in December 2012 hacking the DL1608; not had time until recently to try and finish implementation of my alternative software. I've made significant progress; Currenty able to control the DL1608 from a laptop only no iPad required! Rewriting my code for android atm. More recently I have also implemented (all beit via a grubby hardware hack, in which I almost destroyed the mixer!) recording. Requires significant modification to work, would not recommend in future! Working on an alternative, which I  plan to release as an addon board. protype expected to be in place in 3 weeks. Also looking toward a general MIDI interface..

Watch this space!  Who'i interested? What  would you pay for each of these?

Welcome to the forum. Certainly would be interested in a lot more detail on your project. Mackie's com protocol etc..

metacom:
As there may be a commercial aaplication, I'm being a little cagey with the details at the moment. Having read some of your posts, I think there are certain things you would be interested in.

There are several ways of getting custom code onto it, although I've developed a "one-click" solution for custom code.
Havent touched much on the DSP side, as it's not my field. Will be comparing versions of the PSoC3 cyacd stuff to see if I can see any pattern in the changes.

In terms of the protocol, I have developed a fairly  complete abstraction layer. Currently reviewing the changes between the version I was working with vs 2.1.1.


Also, the root password is kinda funny...

A big welcome! I think Mackie should hire you.  8) That is a positive complement! Looking forward to more interesting developments from you.  :)
