So it was a hot summer day here with nothing to do so I figured to work on the interrupter this time. I was wanting an easier way to deal with all the cables for whenever I wanted to play something from my laptop. I realised that:
a) I had always left my USB to MIDI adaptor cables tied up and never had he need to untie them, and
b) I have absolutely no use for the MIDI Input.
There looked to be enough room in the interrupter so I removed the plastic casting of the USB to MIDI adaptor and got to work. I drilled a hole in the side of the interrupter to feed the USB cable through and mounted the PCB of the adapter in the bottom of the interrupter case. Then I connected the MIDI Output directly to the interruptor PCB. I don't really intend on connecting any other MIDI device to the interrupter so wasn't concerned if the permanent connection would cause an issue.
I did consider making the interrupter to be USB powered since it does have a 5V regulator on it so I figured 5V input would be fine, but then I realised that I may want to run it on fixed mode and don't want to deal with an external power source. If I was really picky, I would have mounted a USB socket on the interrupter casing so the USB cable isn't always attached, but I couldn't be THAT bothered.


Also ran "OneRepublic - Secrets" thanks to Alex. I think this was the longest track I have run on my oneTesla. So far so good. The primary didn't really heat up more than usual so I'm happy. All I need to do now if shield the back of the thermometer so it doesn't play up like it does.
