This is Awake and it’s related settings.
It’s running and should be making sound, but I’m not even getting a display of output in the monitoring page.
Unfortunately I’m in Australia so I’m hoping to get it sorted here before having to post anywhere.

I just don’t get why an app like awake won’t make sound but something like bounds will process incoming audio. Especially when everything was making sound before replacing the DAC

Jack is not running or starting properly. Not sure why.

dmesg from the command line (ssh) can be good to look at to see if the dac is initializing.

How are you checking the left and right outputs? and have you tried swapping the left and right cables (or plugs if you are using a splitter?) and with the fates UNPLUGGED and UNPOWERED, have you tested the resistance of each channel with a multimeter? You could use a mono to mono cable (or even a trs to trs) and put the multimeter across the tip and sleeve. Resistance of each channel should be about the same, I’ll try check mine tonight.

(Update: The two output channels should have a resistance a hair over 46kohms.)

Also have your tried reflashing your SD card and/or swapping SD cards? Good quality SD cards and good power supply’s seems to be key to keeping Pi’s happy.

Happy to report my Fates has come to life.

I went over it again late last night with a loupe, and discovered I’d created a fresh bridge in clearing the original which had had shorted the power. :disappointed:
That said, first time I’ve soldered an SMD chip, so it’s been good experience!!

Thanks again for the help and support in bringing it to life.

Now, to learn how to play it…

i had similar problem before, and turns out it was a power issue. i was using reguler usb power adapter for charging phone, then i switch to adapter that has spec 5V 2A and everything back to normal.

Anybody have some particularly fun or quality knob sources? Been wanting to get better looking and feeling knobs for my build.

Also, as a fun bit, @Smoth helped build some fantastic metal cases:

Looks like the site is down temporarily but Thonk has d-shaft sifam knobs i believe in black, white, and gray with encoder (blank, no pointer line) tops for them. I’m getting some gray ones to (hopefully) match my gray buttons

And with an incoming sale no less!

Oh wow! These are fantastic!

What standoffs did you use? I’ve not yet got my case put together.

I used the same as listed on the FATES github. It has the same internal spacing and tolerance as the acrylic FATES cases. Was yours powder coated as well? I hope you enjoy the Spice Orange we opted for. The desire was to pay homage to the fun play fullness of Teenage Engineering equipment by referencing the ever desired limited edition Space Orange GameCube:

Thanks! Yes. I went with the orange powder coat. I was thinking orange soda and hazy IPAs :slight_smile:

It seems tricky to get hold of the OLED at the moment without shipping from the US. has anyone tried the other alternatives or know whether these would work? e.g yellow one without backlight apparently
or this one which differs slightly in the interface

#993

Had the same problem and found nothing. I ordered this one: https://www.digikey.de/product-detail/en/newhaven-display-intl/NHD-2.7-12864WDY3/NHD-2.7-12864WDY3-ND/7355952

It was shipped within two days to germany. Total price was 58€ :face_vomiting:.

These look amazing! Is there a website? :slight_smile:

#995

These amazing cases were hand built by @Smoth as a set for my friends and I. I would suggest first talking to him to see if there are more available or in the works. If not, let me know! I might have an unclaimed one (can’t remember if it’s a 3 or 4 hole).

I have had both thonk knobs(2 different styles) and DJTechTools chroma knobs. I 100% prefer the chromas. Just my 2 cents!

#997

Same display but wrong interface. These have a Molex plug so you’d need to hack together a few adapters.

Don’t buy this one. It’ll likely end in frustration. (And it’s a bit more expensive)

I ended up ordering mine directly from the manufacturer. I confirmed that they ship internationally, though the shipping appears fairly expensive (~$30 to Germany) Here’s the link: https://www.newhavendisplay.com/nhd2712864wdw3-p-9547.html
