Otherwise there is a guitar store in NYC that has an online shop, they get them in to the store from time to time. I know I have the URL somewhere.
I will take some images for you and post them in the thread. The two pots are controlled simultainiously by the pedal, one is 7K and the other is 11K. The 11K one is the one with the center tap which is soldered to GND (In the case of this pedal GND and minus is the same if I remember correctly). I am working on a way to do the same thing but with one pot instead of two and use a standard expression pedal instead. I can share the info once i get there on how to do it.
Oh yes, I'd be interested, but well, I don't have much money to spend on it actually

But I'm interested in the link to the US website based in NYC !!
Thanks a lot for your help, I'll tell all that to my friend making the clone, he will be really really happy !

Nice, search for "frontpanel designer" and I am sure you will find it. This program is very easy to make frontpanels in. Why not put the outs and ins on the frontpanel as well ? It would save you some money to do so and it would be easier to patch.
I think the information you are looking for is available on the net. I might have
the image somewhere on my HD.
I have found a good program to design frontpanel with a dedicated program and I'will see price
I have decide do not put in front panel because I have a easy back access to patch
and I use always the same synth dedicated output (output B for small stone effect).
About minipops7, I have this picture from the net :
What do you think about trimpot control by midi to control sound volume output ?

There are problems with the quotation tags in your post

Ok.

Well to do it digitally like you want in this case you would need someone who knows how to program C or other language. I can not tell you how to do this since I am not that good in this department. To do this the analogue way would probably mean adding a suitable transistor that controls the voltage that sets the volume and an input to control the transistors amplification.

Mister PHASEREFFECT on this forum has experience programming midi in C for the minipops. It think he's been busy midifying a MP7 for Radek. Contact him if you need some more info in this particular field

I have my minipops now and I have choose the "highlyliquid" kit. It's transform midi message to 8 digital output and with 4 potentiometer output.
All settings are configurable by sysx message.
Don't need to program with C !!!
I will post a new topics when all is ok with the mod minipops 7.
An important thing : I'm going to try to keep all original MP7 functionalities (buttons, pot,... ) with midi control.
Somebody of you have experience with MP7 midifing ?

Yes, like I said, PHASEREFFECT has. He is a member of this forum.

I doubt he quit the project though, I think he said back then he didn't have any MP to test the software on...

But I don't understand, didn't he promise Radek to make sth for him ?

Let's not assume he cancelled a project - he didn't tell us, did he?
