# TeensyMIDIAudio Build Manual |
||||
|
||||
 |
||||
|
||||
Version 1.0 (June 2020) |
||||
|
||||
## What it is |
||||
|
||||
TeensyMIDIAudio (also known as TMA) is a flexible kit to build a synthesizer or effects unit based on a Teensy-3.x microcontroller. For example, you can load MicroDexed or MicroMDAEPiano onto your Teensy using the Arduino IDE and then select a MIDI instrument. |
||||
|
||||
## Requirements |
||||
|
||||
Making a TeensyMIDIAudio board is not very difficult, but you should consider the following: |
||||
|
||||
* You should've soldered something before, preferably a small kit. Without some practice you will get problems with bad soldering joints. Errors like this are always very difficult to find if you have not worked properly. Instructions on how to solder and which tools to use can surely be found on the Internet. |
||||
* You need time! Someone with a lot of experience and practice can finish the whole kit in 2 hours. But if you don't take enough time, there is a high risk to fill something wrong or to create bad soldering joints. |
||||
* You need good tools. Good doesn't always mean expensive. But don't try to work with unsuitable tools, because it may also lead to problems. |
||||
|
||||
## Tools |
||||
|
||||
* Soldering iron: It is best to use a temperature-controlled soldering iron or a station with about 40 watts of power. Never use soldering tips that are too large or a soldering iron with a large capacity. |
||||
* Soldering tin |
||||
* (Small) Side cutter |
||||
* "Helping hand" or heat resistant fastening material |
||||
* Stripping tool |
||||
* Hot air gun for shrinking tube |
||||
|
||||

||||
|
||||
## Build |
||||
|
||||
The printed circuit board has numerous optional components that only need to be mounted in certain cases. This guide shows you all possible options and indicates whether steps are optional or recommended. All steps without further hints are necessary. |
||||
|
||||
It is also possible to equip the board with a PT8211 I2S audio chip instead of the Teensy Audio Shield. This option is not shown here. If you want to use this option, please take a look at the schematic or ask directly via email or in the forum. |
||||
|
||||
The build process is organized into several steps. Each step is on one page with pictures showing the relevant changes. It is good practise to take a short break after each step. For steps in which you have to solder very much (like the IC sockets) you should take breaks in between. |
||||
|
||||
Be careful when soldering on the Teensy audio board! You should take care not to stay too long on one soldering point. Again, take breaks to let the soldering joints cool, so that the chip on the board will not be damaged. |
||||
|
||||
If you are unsure or the manual is not precise enough or misleading, please ask by email or forum before doing something wrong! |
||||
|
||||
__Note: The photos show a mounted SMD component (type PT8211). This is not necessary and is not pre-assembled.__ |

||||
|
||||
#### Solder the Teensy Audio Shield |
||||
|
||||
You have to cut the needed number of pins from the long single- and the double-row-headers by yourself. The 2 * 2 pins are optional and only needed if you want to use the option for audio-input. The 3-pin-single-row header on the right picture (for GND/VOL/3.3V) is not needed. |
||||
|
||||
__Be careful not to overheat the onboard chip when soldering the headers. Take a small break after soldering every pin to let it cool down.__ |

<div style="page-break-after: always"></div> |
||||
|
||||
#### Solder the encoders |
||||
|
||||
The kit contains 10 wires with open ends. These open ends must be stripped, tinned and soldered. You need 5 wires per encoder. To be on the safe side, heat shrinkable tubing should be put over the soldering joints. For this you have to cut 10 pieces out of the long shrink tube. |
||||
|
||||
You need: |
||||
|
||||
* 10 7cm wires (open/female) |
||||
* 2 encoders |

||||
|
||||
#### Insert the ICs |
||||
|
||||
__Note the direction in which the two ICs must be inserted: If the main PCB is aligned like in the picture below, the notches of both ICs must point to the left.__ |
||||
|
||||
You need: |
||||
|
||||
* IC4 (74LS14 -> U4) |
||||
* IC5 (6N138 -> U5) |
||||
|
||||

|
||||
#### Insert the Teensy |
||||
|
||||
__Note the direction in which the Teensy must be inserted: If the main PCB is aligned like in the picture below, the SD card slot must point to the right.__ Also connect the USB adapter cable so that the thicker black end of the female connector is located to the right (like in the picture below). |
||||
|
||||
You need: |
||||
|
||||
* Teensy-3.x (not included in the kit) |
||||
* Angled USB micro adapter cable |
||||
|
||||
 |
||||
|
||||
|
||||
<div style="page-break-after: always"></div> |
||||
|
||||
#### Connect USB-Host (OPTIONAL) |
||||
|
||||
Connect the USB-host pins of the Teensy-3.6 to the pin headers on the main PCB. The order is straight through as shown in the picture below. |
||||
|
||||
You need: |
||||
|
||||
* 5 7cm female/female wires |
||||
|
||||
 |
||||
|
||||
<div style="page-break-after: always"></div> |
||||
|
||||
#### Insert the Audio Shield |
||||
|
||||
__Note the direction in which the Audio Shield must be inserted: If the main PCB is aligned like in the picture below, the SD card slot must point to the right.__ |
||||
|
||||
You need: |
||||
|
||||
* Teensy audio card (not included in the kit) |
||||
|
||||
 |
||||
|
||||
<div style="page-break-after: always"></div> |
||||
|
||||
#### Connect Audio Shield |
||||
|
||||
Connect the audio ports of the Audio Shield to the pin headers on the main PCB. You only need to connect the audio-out port, but it is recommended to also connect the audio-in port. For the wiring look at the wiring scheme below. |
||||
|
||||
You need: |
||||
|
||||
* 3 7cm female/female wires for audio-out |
||||
* 3 7cm female/female wires for audio-in (__RECOMMENDED__) |
||||
|
||||
 |
||||
 |
||||
|
||||
<div style="page-break-after: always"></div> |
||||
|
||||
#### Prepare and insert SD card (__OPTIONAL__: only needed for using TMA with MicroDexed) |
||||
|
||||
Format the SD card as FAT32 and copy the contents of the directory *addon* from the *MicroDexed* directory to the SD card. You can also install your own SYSEX files (or load them directly onto the MicroDexed later). It is important to keep the directory structure: For each bank there is a directory with the bank number as name. |
||||
|
||||
The SD card can be inserted into the Teensy or the audio card. |
||||
|
||||
You need: |
||||
|
||||
* SD card (not included in the kit) |
||||
|
||||
 |
||||
|
||||
<div style="page-break-after: always"></div> |
||||
|
||||
#### Connect encoders |
||||
|
||||
Connect the pre-soldered encoders to the pin headers on the main PCB. The order is shown in the diagram below. |
||||
|
||||
You need: |
||||
|
||||
* 2 pre-soldered encoders |
||||
|
||||
 |
||||
 |
||||
|
||||
<div style="page-break-after: always"></div> |
||||
|
||||
#### Setting jumpers |
||||
|
||||
The jumpers are needed to decide which kind of I2S sound chip you want to use and to enable the I2C pullup resistors. To enable them close JP4 and JP5. Then set JP3 to the down position (as seen in the picture below) and leave JP1 and JP2 open. |
||||
|
||||
You need: |
||||
|
||||
* 3 jumpers |
||||
|
||||
 |
||||
|
||||
<div style="page-break-after: always"></div> |
||||
|
||||
#### Connect LCD display |
||||
|
||||
Connect the LCD to the pin headers on the main PCB. The order is shown in the diagram below. |
||||
|
||||
You need: |
||||
|
||||
* LCD display |
||||
* 4 10cm female/female wires |
||||
|
||||
 |
||||
 |
||||
|
||||
<div style="page-break-after: always"></div> |
||||
|
||||
#### Test |
||||
|
||||
Now you are ready for the first test. But before, please check again the following: |
||||
* orientation of the ICs |
||||
* orientation of the Teensy |
||||
* orientation of the Audio Shield |
||||
* __OPTIONAL__: SD card is inserted |
||||
|
||||
 |
||||
|
||||
Now you can try to power up your kit. If everything works, the display should show a short text during the boot process. After that you you should see the bank/voice selection. Now you can play with your connected MIDI keyboard and change sounds/banks with the encoder. For more information on how to use it please read the user-manual. |
||||
|
||||
#### Trouble-shooting |
||||
|
||||
##### Problem: Nothing is visible on the LCD |
||||
|
||||
This can happen if the contrast of the LCD display is not set correctly. To adjust it you can (carefully) adjust the contrast with a small screwdriver using the blue potentiometer on the back of the LCD display while power is connected. |
||||
|
||||
 |
||||
|
||||
|
||||
##### Problem: The screen hangs on the boot message! |
||||
|
||||
This may be due to problems with the SD card? The synth will only work if the SD card works correctly. If the SD card is not recognized, the system will stop. Try to format it again as FAT32 and copy the preset data or try another SD card. |
||||
|
||||
##### Problem: The encoders are reversed! |
||||
|
||||
The lines on the encoder (on the three-pin side, the lines on the right and left) have been connected to the headers in reverse order. Exchange them crosswise on the main board. |
||||
|
||||
##### Problem: The encoder buttons don't work! |
||||
|
||||
Check if the two wires from the encoder (from the two pin side) are connected to the correct header on the main board. |
||||
|
||||
It is also possible that the potentiometer knobs are mounted too close to the encoder. Loosen the screw in the potentiometer knob and push the knob a bit further away from the case. You can also remove it first and try to push the buttons without the knobs. |
||||
|
||||
##### Problem: There is no sound! |
||||
|
||||
* First check your MIDI wiring. |
||||
* MicroDexed |
||||
* Are you getting signals? The LCD should show a note symbol or a box symbol under the inverse 1 when you press a key. If not, no MIDI signals are detected and no sound is generated. |
||||
* Did you reset the EEPROM? You may need to reset the EEPROM after each time you flashed the firmware. |
||||
* Is the volume high enough? Turn the volume encoder (left) so that the display shows you a higher value (maximum 100). |
||||
* Has the SD card been recognized? You can only hear the sound if the SD card has been recognized correctly. If not, format it again as FAT32 and copy the data or try another SD card. |
||||
* Check the output level. |
