Rockit Update and a Some Sweet Bass

I'm still plugging away, playing with wavetables and chasing out aliasing. The prototype boards are on order. In case you didn't know, Advanced Circuits has a great deal for prototype pcbs. They have a $33 deal for double-sided pcbs up to 60 square inches. You end up getting 5 boards for about $150. Most other places are gonna charge you for tooling adding somewhere from $150-250 to the order. This is the only place I go for prototype boards. They get made in 5 days. The only limitation that makes it a little harder is that they won't do slots with the deal. The only place on the board that this problem is the dc power jack. I've had to get a little creative to try to mount it in the board. One word: Dremel. Anyways, I'll get the boards by the end of the week, test it into next and get the production run on order.

I was playing with it today after getting some wavetable work done and I made this bass line with a simple square wave and the bandpass filter. I was just banging out notes. F-U-N!
