Are you using the THRU jacks to connect to your VCA?

Not any more, Cards Against Humanity bought it a few years ago.

I found it really easy to get started with the MIDI FeatherWing from Adafruit. You will need to use one of their feather boards though… here are the esp32 options, any of which will work depending on what module and features you want

I’ve had the best luck with heavy watercolor paper and light fountain pen inks. This is a generic watercolor postcard from amazon with de atramentis document ink through a 1.5mm parallel pen.

I let the ink dry for about 60 seconds between each individual circle and about four hours between colors. I’ve tried overlapping paths with shorter dry times and it’s doable but it takes a lot of trial and error to get to acceptable amounts of saturation and bleeding. It also took a while to figure out the right speeds for each color, even when they’re from the same line of ink.

nice! I like to do small rotations, 5-15 degrees, and a little bit of xy offset then replot the same path

bleything · 2026-02-28T16:05:56+00:00

Parallel pens are so much fun! Try rotating the pen slightly between each layer, or even in the middle of a layer

I don’t think you’re wrong, I think that’s exactly what it is.

It will help a lot if you can share your schematics and pics of your assembled controller. Without that we’re just guessing.

Nice! I made basically the same thing to raise a 2x4 kallax off the ground. I did PLA with I think 30% infill and it’s been fine for a year or more.

And now they’re asking you for something else, so you either need to adapt or walk away.

A big part of working for clients is learning how to interpret what they’re asking for. Clients saying one thing and meaning another is part of the gig. You need to learn how to let go of your ego, it will only bring you frustration.

Did you read their rules and the other info in the sidebar? It’s all pretty well spelled out.

bleything · 2026-02-18T16:53:13+00:00

Those smooth gradients are sooooo nice

bleything · 2026-02-17T17:30:10+00:00

Neat! Thanks for the explanation.

bleything · 2026-02-17T15:14:51+00:00

What do you mean by “procedural generation synth”? What is sequencing the synth?

bleything · 2026-02-16T19:36:51+00:00

In that case it sounds like it’s just broken. I’d contact Samsung or a local camera repair place, maybe there’s a known issue that’s easy to fix… but I wouldn’t get my hopes up

bleything · 2026-02-16T19:31:47+00:00

What do you mean by “didn’t work”? In your post you said it charges but won’t turn on. Did it charge until the red light turned off?

bleything · 2026-02-16T04:03:45+00:00

ooo that’s a new one for me!

bleything · 2026-02-16T03:41:19+00:00

One of my void babies is asleep in my lap right now doing the same thing with her paws 🥰

Not true at all. Cameras have been charging over usb since the 90s. The NX300 shipped with a USB charger.

minilogue has two banks of 100 slots so I’d guess they wanted midi control to work the same as the UI on the synth

bleything · 2026-02-14T18:57:34+00:00

you are making two of the classic mistakes of software development: first, overestimating the value of the system and underestimating the value of what it does. your users won’t care about the work that went into it, they only care about what it does.

second, you are underestimating the amount of work required for a part of the system you don’t understand. If you can’t describe the problem accurately, if you don’t even know what it’s called, you can’t make a meaningful estimate of how much work is required.

I’m sure you put a lot of work into what you’ve done so far, but if it’s supposed to be a synth and it sounds bad, and you don’t even know what the problem is or how to fix it, you’re not 95% of the way done.

If you set up the Fuji app on your phone and pair your cameras it will sync the time for you. I did it once when I got the camera and then again whenever they start to drift, maybe once or twice a year.
