Hello! I intend to buy a basicx24, and I'd like to know how many adc conversions per second to expect for the eight channels. It would be perfect if I could read the eight channel 1000 times per second. Am i dreaming? Another question : can I setup exotic baud rates for serial transfer? I'd like to generate midi-out signal with the basicX. Here are the midi specs : "The MIDI data stream is a unidirectional asynchronous bit stream at 31.25 Kbits/sec. with 10 bits transmitted per byte (a start bit, 8 data bits, and one stop bit)." (this sounds not very good for me, as I don't understand some of the words used here, so I'd like to know if it's easy to set up or not...) Is it possible to do that with the basicx? And a last question : I live in Europe (Belgium) and I'd like to order a basicX. Is it better to order it trough netmedia, or have the development kit from phanderson.com? Anyone has experience ordering outside US? Thanks ! --------------------------------------------------------------------- Philippe Jadin mailto: Belgium, Europe Simple yet usefull Robot stuff goto http://users.swing.be/philippe.jadin For low-cost web design goto http://users.skynet.be/clairetnet

The EMS box package was damaged in transit (a big hole on the backside) but since they put the small chip in a VERY large container, the chip appears to be unharmed :). Can't say the same if it was airmailed. It all depends on your local mail system and luck too. All my other airmail package such as sample chips from US appears to be ROUGH-handled too. That's why I prefer a safe insured transfer if I'm ordering something expensive. Just imagine putting all those packages tightly sealed in the cargo of the aircraft with all sorts of other things and you'll get the picture. I'll say that delivery will arrive 99% but 50% of them will have damaged packaging. __________________________________________________

For 8 channels, that's 6/8 k = 750 sample/s maximum. -- Frank Manning -- NetMedia, Inc.
