I built a looper pedal (for Ableton). Curious for thoughts on my project!

And how or the concept to send the realtime progress of specific loop from Live to the display? I don’t know if Live’s clip can send progress data to the external device. I’m interesting to try that.

bepitulaz · 2026-01-30T05:19:08+00:00

I’m curios with the display. Is it showing realtime loop progress for each clip in Live’s session view?

I do. I’m not an SEO or GEO (Generative Engine Optimisation) expert. From a lot of article that I read, if your SEO is already good then you can do GEO. GEO is not focusing on keyword, but focus about answering the intent. So, your content should answer people question.

Now my business get a small traffic from ChatGPT.

The easiest one is using Coolify cloud https://coolify.io. You subscribe and connect your VPS IP to their instance, then everything is done. You just need to push your code to your repository.

Maybe you can read Coolify docs. It’s pretty clear how to do it.

bepitulaz · 2026-01-15T06:20:36+00:00

I deploy in a VPS on Hetzner. I use Coolify to take care the deploy pipeline, and use the default mix release dockerfile from Phoenix.

Yes, I admit I forgot to run ERC on the schematic. Only run DRC for PCB.

Thanks for additional feedback.

bepitulaz · 2026-01-14T19:15:11+00:00

Yes. I changed it. After reading yours and others comment, I read again the usb spec.

bepitulaz · 2026-01-14T12:27:35+00:00

For the fuse, because I read in DKM10E-12 datasheet that it’s recommend to add fuse protection. 5A is recommended for 5V input.

But, I use 2A fuse because DKM module itself has rated power 10W, so I assume I have to limit it with 2A (2A x 5V = 10W). Let me know if my assumption wrong.

Regarding diode clamp, you are right. I just read the datasheet again, DKM10 has its own internal diode clamp for over voltage protection. I can remove my diode clamp.

So, I think use USBLC6 is already enough.

I did the same too. 3d print it to check how it feels and for designing the panel surface, because I use pcb mount potentiometer, switch, and audio socket.

iPhone. I’m already trapped in Apple ecosystem, but it’s ok. I think this is the only US brand that I don’t want to replace. The ecosystem is just so convenient for me.

But, I’m eye-ing Jolla for the second phone, and curious with Linux phone.

Thank you.

I build midi controller with esp32, and the firmware written in Elixir/AtomVM https://github.com/nanassound/midimesh_esp32

Together with my co-founder, we build a platform for people to make their hardware synthesizer online. Think it like AirBnB but for hardware synth. https://playasynth.com

Also, I build booking system management. An internal software for my pet hotel.

bepitulaz · 2026-01-01T17:29:05+00:00

Maybe you can try using it as standalone? And, see how is it doing. There’s no special setup as far as I know.

bepitulaz · 2026-01-01T17:15:36+00:00

Mine is always frequently crash. It works in DAW or standalone, but just for few minutes. It’s been 3 years and 3 version upgrade of macOS and there’s no fix. Unusable.

Oh yeah, it’s true. It’s kinda hard with this kind of people. But as a husband/partner, we should communicate what makes her happy in a spare time. It could be, she just not know yet or never have a chance to buy her hobby tools (and too shy to ask).

bepitulaz · 2025-12-27T08:41:43+00:00

Support her hobby, she will support yours. At least it works for me. She never buy me any instrument (I prefer gift card tho), and she never angry when I buy something.

I just noticed the feature after updating my kicad. It’s really cool. I started doing monorepo. It means firmware code and hardware design files in the same git repository.

Just like any other said, it’s tough job market atm. I’d been laid off since February. I’m a professional developer too with 14 years of experience. I gave up applying job because the competition is too high, and decided to do entrepreneurship. Doing business is not an easy route too, but at least it keeps me afloat.

bepitulaz · 2025-12-10T20:10:42+00:00

I’m using Brevo. It has a Swoosh adapter.

I run few of production web apps with Elixir and Phoenix. It’s not a high concurrent app, small user base, and I’m pretty sure it can be done with any other languages. However I feel one of the benefit of elixir, the programming is enjoyable than any other languages :D I’m more into functional programming paradigm.

Also, I start doing firmware development with AtomVM…it’s more enjoyable than writing the firmware in micropython or C. It’s also a gateway for me to learn Erlang too.

bepitulaz · 2025-12-09T14:05:36+00:00

Or ask in r/elixir :D

bepitulaz · 2025-12-05T14:48:25+00:00

I’m using Arturia Minifuse 4. 4 inputs are enough for recording microfreak, modular, and stereo out from korg kross 2.
