It's been a very long time since I've even thought about this. Originally I built an extension which used a digital muxing circuit to switch signals for digital to tape mastering. Also required was inverting the signal so that it could be recorded correctly by the datasette. I'm not sure what...

Hi there, Thanks for you interest. Reading .idx files should be fairly easy to implement, based on what I've seen (byte counter offset seek per index). Life has been rather busy, which has put TapuinoNext development on the back burner for a while. I hope to get back to it soon. As for the...

FYI: A rather nice 3D printable enclosure has been added to the original Tapuino repo on Github, by contributor fabriziofiorucci. https://github.com/sweetlilmre/tapuino

Wonderful! Thank you :) Are you happy for these files to be shared as part of the project, with appropriate attribution to you? If so, DM me what you'd like your attribution to be e.g. name or handle, email or any other details and the licence you'd like applied if different to the project...

The whole kicad project would be awesome, it will help me to start playing around with kicad. SDCARD -> TapuinoNext SS -> Not connected GND -> both pins joined and connected to GND (see jumper wire on SD adapter) VCC-> 3V3 SCK -> CLK MISO -> DO MOSI -> CMD -(e)

Nicely done! I've been wanting to learn kicad and move over from eagle. Would you be willing to share your kicad files? Thanks -(e)

I'm overseas at the moment so can't check in detail, however only 5 pins are required IIRC: PWR (3.3v) and GND, CLK, CMD and DO. I use dupont connectors to connect header pins on the board and the SD Card. Check out this page for the SD Card pins...

Latest firmware should be fine, I'm not sure what version you are on but the releases have all been bug fixes / performance improvements or enhancements. You may need to check the config for pull-up / pull-down buttons if you have implemented the very first rev as this was the only significant...

Great news, as soon as you had said that you started the Tapuino load before pressing shift/runstop I had my suspicions, so I tested it out this morning and managed to duplicate the issue. I'm not exactly sure why this should happen. Initially I thought that by missing the initial pulses...

Hi, The problem would be what to log? Also that accessing the SD card for write is very slow and would probably make the problem worse. Just to summarize where we are (correct anything that is wrong below): This issue occurs on: 2 different Tapuino hardware implementations with different SD...

That is very odd! I'm a bit stumped as to why this would be happening. Things to try: Format the SD card with the SD Card Association tool and try again: https://www.sdcard.org/downloads/formatter/ Try a different card and see if that makes a difference. I know with recording, the quality and...

That's got an ISP header on it so you can update that one as well using another Arduino (e.g. the one from your own build). https://docs.arduino.cc/built-in-examples/arduino-isp/ArduinoISP Also a pro-tip, for the connector I usually cut a small piece of plastic card and insert it into the...

LOL, perhaps :) Also I think the kit was from spcbm, being in South Africa it was never an option for me to build and ship kits out with our postal service :p

Hi, Took a while to set things up to test. I have tested both tap files on 2.9.0 and both load fine (multiple attempts). Try updating the self built version and let me know if that works. Out of interest what is the other non-self-built hardware? I have been testing on the Tapuino Reloaded from...

Apologies for the late reply, for some reason I missed the notification. Couple of questions: What firmware version are you on? Are you able to build and flash the latest firmware? (if so, please note what version you are on first). Can you post or DM me links to the exact tap files that are...
