FIXME - The Connection from J1 to J2 is wrong - its 1:1 but it has to be crossed.\\
====== Hardware Requirements ======
  * Soldering Iron - with a Dip that can Handle Thruhole-Parts and 1206 SMDs, solder Paste...\\
  * The other Parts from the BOM\\
  * a Midibox Core32

====== Building and BOM======
All necessery Information is printet on the PCB, but also check the {{:phatline:EURO_Midi_IO_Shematic.pdf?900|Shematic}}\\

then decide **how often you want to order all off, the BOM Quantity is for 1Module**\\
On one PCB you have 2 ident MidiIO-Modules, on JLCPCB you order typicaly 5 PCB, so your quantity may be 10x\\
BUT dont buy multiple Flatbandcables... these are hundrets of meter!\\

**1 times: 45€** 25€ parts and 20€ shipping...shipping excl fat\\
if you go over 50€ shipping is free.\\
lets take a look if we order it\\
**5 times: 95€** incl free shipping excl fat\\
**10times:176€** incl free shipping excl fat\\ 

4x (or 20x) [[https://www.buerklin.com/de/Montageblock/p/17H917|Leiterplatten Montageblock aka Standoffs]] 100x summed 30€\\
You will also need M3 Screws - 2 off them...\\
Also here it is clever to order 100 pieces for a cheaper price - you will need this on all my projects...\\

====== PCB ======
{{:phatline:Midi-IO-b-Gerber.zip?900|GERBER-Files Rev B for Production}}\\
I already received and testet Rev A, i hade some small Bugs which i got fixed with some  wires...\\
So i got it fully working... the Bugfixes are includet in Rev.B\\
---never the less i did not testet Rev.B... since i have enough Rev.A for my whole Modular-Rack @ home\\
so feel free to test - and report!\\
{{:phatline:EURO_Midi_IO_Board.jpg?900|}}\\
FIXME - dont use this - because of J1-J2 connection is wrong (this matter if you chain 2 Midi-IO-Modules\\


====== Frontpanel======
{{:phatline:Euro_Midi_IO_Panel-Dimensions.jpg?900|}}\\
**I made a {{:phatline:EuroMidiIO-Panel-for-milling.zip?900|DXF}}File which you can print, and drill it DIY  or  \\
you can send to:**\\
[[https://shop.frontpanels.de/custom-panels|frontpanels.de in germany]] 17,08€ a panel (5x-10%, 10x-20%, 20x-30%, 30x-40%, 100x-50%)\\
I tested one with them - and yes they looking good - and they fit!:\\
\\
another good guy: [[https://thebeast.co.uk/2d/|The Beast - UK]]\\

\\
**Recommend Material**\\
2mm x 128.5 x 17.78 Aluminium, anodised\\
\\
**A cheaper way is: order a 1,6mm thick Aluminium PCB as Frontpanel:**\\
this are the gerbers:\\
{{:phatline:GERBER-EURO_MidiIO_FP.zip?900|}}\\
I have testet it, and this 1.6mm Aluminium from JLCPCB is too thin, i endet up by sandwith 2 off them togehter - so its strong enough, since the Labels are reversed when use the PCB reversed - i now removed them in this gerber file!\\

====== To Do ======
Use a other Midi-OUT-Activity Shematic! - its not working for high speed midi! - while Note-ON off is ok, Midiclock can make trouble (the Charge-Discharge Circuit in this Design is not sufficent for this!)\\

====== Community users working on it ======
  * **[[Phatline]]** =  PCB & Shematic, Documentation...\\

Just let a Private message on the forum to user already involved.\\
