<p>Today the Sjöbjörn studio has a mixing console controlled by a PC with outdated software and</p><p>hardware technology. The hardware requires an ISA-bus to work at all and thereby limits the</p><p>upgrades that can be made to the computer. The software runs in a DOS environment and has not</p><p>been updated for a long time as well. This makes working with the mixing console more difficult</p><p>then it has to be and new features are hard to implement. In this thesis I have developed new</p><p>hardware so that a more powerful computer can be used which hopefully will allow for a more</p><p>user friendly interface and make it easier for future upgrades and additions.</p><p>The thesis presents a solution on how to upgrade the system all the way from the PCcommunication</p><p>to the hardware designs.</p><p>The project was based around the Microchip PIC18F4550 microcontroller for the hardware and</p><p>the Visual Basic.NET programming language for the PC software.</p>
