![QCC3008 Programming - Universal Parameter Manager [equalizer / audio or call gain / DSP]](/img/n.gif)
Tip 1 : Make the Equaliser Setup-Up Window wider :) way easier to fine tune stuff. Also: my module started making a 5tone beep (which can be heard in the video) after I started programming it; that's the low battery alert, and can be disabled in ConfigurationTool 3.0.70 (the programmer feeds it only 3v3)
Tip 2 : To make the whole thing faster & easier, you could actually just "Merge" the parameters file created by the Universal Front End (write 1KB instead of 32). This didn't work too well under Windows 10 though
Tip 3 : In order to get to editing the current configuration from your device, the Download Params button doesn't seem to work: instead open the Live View (the glasses icon) and close it.
do you have to solder to the programming ports or could you use those individual breadboard jumper cables like on a bread board?
I can confirm that windows 11 fixes the same sauce where UFE didn’t work. I don’t know if it’ll work for everyone under windows 11 but it surely didn’t work on windows 10 for me and now is working on windows 11. Glad it’s fixed for me, I not longer need to use the win 7 vm for this tool
Thanks for the kudos, Christian here. Seems that it worked out nicely. :)
I believe I've read something roughly on that topic .. unfortunately I have no use for this .. so I've absolutely no clue
Thank you very much for your work. One additonal tip: if you have the module with the 5VDC breakout version, you should connect 5VDC to the VCC and connect also ground to the external power supply. The programmer module only has 3,3VDC and that is not enough for the DC/DC converter on the breakout module.
+Tim Kutscher mmm, but it doesn’t have to : the 3v3 I’m connecting goes directly to the input of the CSR8645; the dc-dc converter takes 12v in so that’s out of the question anyway [or did I get this completely wrong ? also - you’re most welcome]
I think you got me right. But on my board is the B0503S/D-1W (1W, FIXED INPUT ISOLATED & UNREGULATED SINGLE OUTPUT MINIATURE SIP/DIP PACKAGE) and this one needs 5VDC in.
Maybe you can describe in more detail where you connected the power supply.
+Tim Kutscher yours does in that case need 5, BUT ! if you’ll check my “renaming the csr8645” video where I go into greater detail on connecting, I (hope I) said to watch out for the GND connections; one goes to the dc-dc converter, the other one directly to the BT Chip GND. When you connect the programmer, use BAT (for the 3v3) and the GND closest to it
Darieee yes of course I watched the other video first. I watch this part more than one time to figure out how YOU connected the power. But I didn't get how you did it. But how ever - now you will laugh - my programmer is dead:( I don't know why because the renaming of the chip worked. And this is because of your great explanation! Now I've ordered an ordinary FTDI USB RS233 converter to program the Bluetooth chip. I'm eager if that will also work.
Are you sure its burnt ? I think I shorted mine out a couple of times and it's fine ...
Your video is very explanatory, how do I get the bass to be controlled like JBL Flip 4, for example, I want to do exactly the same thing, I want to get the same or very similar equalization to that JBL, the most important thing is that the bass adjust itself dynamically
You don't seem "quite stupid", thanks for the video! This will help me immensely when I make my own headphones!
hah :D thanks - glad I could help
for sure! please keep them coming!

Do you know anything about connecting batteries and such to the board it self?
"Charging:
Maximum Current
200 mA on chip
500 mA with external transistor"
+zarster uuuu .. yeah I never had the balls to go that route; if space is tight (as I’m assuming it is), then it should work ...
If it does do let us know (perhaps a video ?) - there’s quite little factual / howto videos on these chips
I’ve always used one of those li ion charger boards with built in protection : quite small and they do already have the micro usb connector: www.ebay.de/itm/322707974065
Thinking about it - they might charge tiny cells too fast
I bought a 5 pack of thouse (knowing the faultrate on these products)
I have a CSR8645, CSR8675 and CSRA64215 board on the way. I want to make a set of headphones with built in microphones as to use it as a phone headset as well.. and as so I would like to take advantage of as many features as possible, Dual mic input, charging circuit and so on. some of the newer ones feature active noise cancellation built in!
Check out the 8675 though, quite a capable little chip! www.qualcomm.com/products/csr8675
+zarster I had a CSRA64215 board not output any sound :-/ could you link the CSR8675 board you got ?
The li-ion charger have been bullet proof (at least the ones I received)
CSR did some outstanding work, let’s hope qualcomm keeps it up; the extra equaliser parameters sound very apetising
Thanks for the nice tutorial and instructions !
I will use a CSR8635 for adding Bluetooth to a old Tube radio PU (PickUp - or Phono) input but wanted to set MONO line output and maybe a bass boost or other custom EQ setting since it has only one wimpy speaker and around 5W rms music capabillity :D
Greetings !!
glad I could help! good luck and have fun ;)
you can give me a scheme of connection of the cables of the spi to the bluetooth module please
Does this still not work on windows 10?
is there any way we can do this without connecting it to aurdino direct by connecting bluetooth module or charging slot connection
How are you providing enough power through the USB connection to power the speaker at a volume at which you can hear the EQ changes? I find that the USB will only provide enough power to provide very quiet audio. I would love to run this at full power, and make changes to the EQ
Hey Darrieee,
I love your Videos! You helped me alot, i now know more about programming my CSR8635. But i have one Ask. Is this a 10k resistor what you use or what for a resistor? And then, how have i to connect the resistor? Thanks!
+CrazyLifeCrafter glad I could help !
I am indeed using a 10K resistor (check my renaming video - I go more in depth there about the wiring)
Basically you need to pull it high via that 10K resistor :: connect it to +3v3
Hey Darieee,
You've been incredibly helpful by answering all of my previous questions but I'm still running into an issue here.
Just to check if my work had succeeded I decided to make a shit setting, just like you, so I could here if everything was right. So, I added the shit parameters to the 'dump', created a new filed which i called shit settings so I would save the dump and merged the new file with the old one. Pretty hyped about the completion of het merge, I disconnect the usb spi from my amplifier, boot it up, play some music, just to find out it doesn't sound like shit at all... I decided to reconnect and make a new dump of the current settings on the board and upon inspecting the new dump I saw that the shit parameters WERE there! They were in my new dump, and thus in my BT Chip, but they didn't work. I checked all boxes and the shit settings did work when i applied them with the CSR universal front end.
Have you ran into this problem too, could you help me solve it? Would be great if you could!
Thanks in advance!
Hmmm, no.. didn't have it..
Usually people miss one (or more) tiiiiny details ...
Have the thing connected - and playing
Pull up the frontend, press the glasses, do you settings WITH the music playing
Press the glasses again, hit save dump
Then go to the pstool, and merge
! For example, try Factory Reset all in PSTool, them merge one of my untiuched dumps, then merge your eq
You might have a corrupted batch of setting for the eq, and the chip can't parse them when it's reading them from it's memory (actually - I think it's that)
"Merge" in PSTool is only additive :: you can't remove stuff with it :: only by hitting factory restore all
Hi Darieee,
is it possible to reprogram csr8645 to get input from microphone , amplify it and then output it to speaker/headset ?
(like hearing aid, I dont need BT functionality)
Tip
1- Do it on Win7 -32bit
2- Play music while connect Usb
3- Click on glass
Right bro?
I have some question to you
1- Need to supply the power for the bluetooth board when playing music (my tda7492 need enoud power to woking)
no, just the bt module needs power 🫡 the rest doesn't matter
@@Darieee you mean GND & 3.3V enough? If just bt have the power, i cant hear any music from speaker
Darieee Could you please help me by answering this question: is it possible to control the CSR8635 builtin equaliser by its UART, USB or BT?
Dude I think so .. it's a really clever chip and CSR does some pretty solid work (if not the 8635, than surely the csra64215), but ... it's wildly beyond my scope
You can however control it via the Gaia app, but that I also never tried
Can you use the Equaliser as a crossover? Like using one channel to drive a tweeter and another to drive mid?
not that I know of ... you would have to write custom firmware for it at best ...
Thank you so much for the information. Love these videos. So hard to find information about these chips.
what is with the 10k resistor on the SPI_EN aka SPI_PCM when I hooked my 1.8v line up to this it worked fine without no 10k resistor Zero issues yet people swear you need it? Why is this? I also use windows 10 with zero issues as well!
It's a cheap and very dirty way of pulling the SPI_EN pin up to 1v8 with the existing 3v3 programmer VDD
can you try it with ft232? i tried using ft232 instead of csr spi usb and works only with pstool but not with csr universal front end. I do not understand why. Thankyou
can I add addtitional external Key to change Eq Mode? like a button switch?
Will this work the QCC51xx & csr8675 chips?
Great Video, helped a lot! Do you know if it is possible to programm the DSP to have one channel only delivering >2000Hz and one delivering
Put it on thingyverse :D or however it's called - you surely know about it
And thanks! Unfortunately I don't have a 3D printer
You also should 100% upgrade to the CSRA64215, it's WAY WAY WAY more powerful (and supports synchronized volume between phone and chip)
As far as I know, you can't do that, although I too would be vvvery interested in something like that
Hiii Darie, I just bought an amp with 8635 inbuilt. So I was just checking if it work and for me, PS Tool & the Configurator works without a problem. But when I try to connect to the UFE, it just doesn't connect. Tried playing song and followed every step but still it doesn't connect. I too have the Virtual Box with Windows 7 32bit. Please help me provide a solution.
it's complicated .. try either reinstalling the software or running everything on an actual windows 7 x32 machine
I'd also highly suggest moving up to the CSRA64215 or QCC3008 chips - they have wildly more compatible toolchains
@@Darieee Thanx for the suggestion. If i move to the CSRA64215 where will I get the tools for it. Means Qualcomm doesn't share software to individuals. So where can I get them?
I have them linked throughout my videos
check either what I have specifically on that, or my ''margarine box speaker" video
I get error detecting chip type (Read failed on USB-SPI). i may have connected somthing wrong because mine is built on an amp. so the only free ports are MOSI CLK CSB MISO. SPI_EN is already solderd on the board. but i don't know if its powerd and if that could be the problem. The amp is powerd so the blueetooth board gets power as well.
check to see what voltage the SPI_EN pin has on it, it's supposed to be around 2-3V
Is this "speaker" an Apple iPod Hi-Fi? If so, love the idea of "recycling" it with a modern connectivity. It's such a beautiful piece of design!
yeah - those're really well made speakers - not a lot happening on the high end, but .. a lot of power all 'round nevertheless
@@Darieee So you just tapped into its' amp with CSR8645?
I've done 3 mods .. one simple which simply connects the csr to the input jack on the back, and 2 other ones where I fitted other amps inside an iPod Hi Fi with dead internals
I think my csr8645 is bricked after one of the program pins came lose while programming. can't seem to find it with my phone anymore, I tried to load my dump as well as yours which seem to work with pst tools but it's still dead apart from that. But my eq settings did not seem to stay loaded after disconnecting en reconnecting the power completely. Did I miss someting?
Try doing the Restore/Erase All thing in PSTools, reflash a known good psr, then redo the steps
Also, if you brick it far enough that it doesn't boot, try connecting the various button pins (one by one) to COM (internal 1v8 rail) at bootup -- sometimes that gets it to boot
Hey Deriee My virtualbox doesn’ reading the usb connection. I’m running windows 7 on windows 10. I’m traing to program csr8635 using the programmer but virtualbos doesn’t reading the usbs. How do you fix that? Please!
Please!!
In VirtualBox, while your CSR USB SPI Programmer is plugged in, you need to go to Machine Settings > Ports > USB > and click the + to add the programmer to the list of devices to be fed through into the virtual machine
is there a way to change EQ (e.g. from Rock setting to Jazz) with the push of a physical button? Or to enable / disable any chip functionality with physical buttons? Thank you!
Yes it is ... I'm unfortunately not sure how ...
As far as I've understood it, it has to do with ConfigTool and button events
If you figure it out, please let me/us know :)
@@Darieee If I'll find out surely I'll share. What a treat would it be to have it on a bluetooth speaker..
Thank you very much for this video. Is it possible to connect aux and get the dsp corrected signal out? If so, how?
The Datasheet of the CSR8645 suggest that this is possible, but there is no breakout for this on the common CSR8645 Modules (i.stack.imgur.com/j5nXO.png). Maby some pins are configurable, but i can't find any information on this either.
i want to install this software on my pc can you help me?
its possible with other spi programmer?
You included the CSRA64215 program bundle as well, that includes a 10band speaker PEQ as well as 5band user PEQ what is the difference between these?
The 5band is technically 'userland' and can also be changed by the GAIA App (let me know if you want that, I'll add a link to it)
The 10 band one is more of a factory setting to flatten the speaker in question, and then the user customizes the sound via the 5band
@@Darieee Thanks for the clarification. I found that GAIA app as well but with the CSR8645 and KRC86B i had laying around it doesn't seem to work:/
Yeah, for that you need something older that probably runs on android -3
Aah okay, did you get it working on a older phone?
I don't have any android phone unfortunately ... so, no, was mainly a figure of speech :)
Hi. Is possible to control compression, delay, and some other effects with this method? Wondering how well it sounds with the "stereo 3d enhancement" too. Thanks for the video btw.
more than welcome!
I tried the stereo 3d thing .. didn't really like it
Compression : I'm not sure what you mean by this, but the "Compander" stage is a sort of AutoGainControl which limits the maximum volume dynamically
And delay ... yea, more DSP stages you add larger it'll be; on this note consider upgrading to the CSRA64215 chip - much nicer
@@Darieee Yeah compander, probably that's what I was meant to say. I want to add kind of dynamic sound and or dynamic bass to sound deep and refined. I thinking of using the csr8675 because of BT 5.0 and LDAC codec(as far as I know it's supported). I still don't own that chip but, before buying do you suggest me csra64215 or csr8675. I guess the same procedure will work on both. What do you think?
using the compander won't offer you what you're looking for ... I tried it too, maybe you'll have better luck
dynamic bass is an entirely different beast, that requires individual eq profiles for each volume level
or at least for the upper ones
I can hook you up with software for the 8675 if you promise to share your findings
and the 64215 software is already available for download on my channel :)
I will do my best to work on that, I have no experience with those BT chips, but I'm very interested to learn about them
Hi Darieee! Can you setup CSR8635/8645 module with 2 way i2s output? 1 way for woofer speaker with low frequence sound, and 1 way for tweeter speaker with high frequence sound
I am 90% sure you can't
Technically, you can write your own DSP firmware and have different EQ stages for each channel, but - with the stock firmware, as previously mentioned, not possible
If you find out how - do let me know - I know what you're after - and I'd totally be interested: get 2 CSRA64215s working in TWS mode, one left, one right, each module driving mids/highs and bass directly filtered ... the dream
@@DarieeeIs there a forum or guide of someone who tried/explains this? Adding seperate channel eq/filters would make this module much more usefull. I can't find much documentation of the output parameters of the filters made with "universal front end" software.
None that I am aware of ... unfortunately
@@Darieee I found this; www.twblogs.net/a/5c659562bd9eee06ee22e443 but it is a custom program that i can't seem to download. And found that the new ADK4.0 has the crossover blocks for the CSR8675; www.52bluetooth.com/csr/adk4.0/adkdocs/dsp/cvc/CS-329107-UG.pdf unfortunately the newer ADK versions are not that easy too find/ find documentation for. The newer ADK 4.2 and up supports the bluetooth 5.0 which would be a treat.
I really appreciate your videos, I’m working with a 64215 right now and am having trouble matching the output level between the Bluetooth and line in. Is there a way to reduce Bluetooth output level without effecting line in output level? Also is there a setting for diff in / single ended in for the line in? Thanks in advance!!
I have no idea .. I haven't played with the CSRA64215 past enabling analog output instead of i2s
In a shocking turn of events, and since you're already here, I'd love to know how you got a line in into the csra64215 chip, aaand, if you have any idea, wether it applies to the 8645 as well
LOL! I put VCC on PIN1 (I/O 6). This was an option I had my bluetooth factory program into the module. I can send you dump file if you want. Or you can find that option and enable it. My problem is that I'm using the aux inputs single ended and as such am only getting 1/2 voltage out compared to bluetooth input. I could easily rectify with a simple single ended to differential opamp circuit but I'm trying to just adjust the gains in programming to continue living my life.
Yeah .. shit .. doesn't the front end have any options for this ?
If you could send those over at ---@yahoo.com that would be awesome
Btw, what're you building ? Sounds quite serious xD
I'll send over. This is my company DiamondBoxx.com
Where do you feed in the signals ? Also some GPIO pins ??
NO FUCKING WAY
NOOOO FUUUCKING WAAAAaaa4AAAY
Dude I saw those speakers on big d whiz ... hooooowly shit ... man I know I've made it when you people come in my comments ... Man, it's an honour ...
Them speakers be rrreal badass xD
If you're the same guy who does the amp dyno I'mma flip out completely - like - loose it girls on elvis presley type a deal :))
What is the resistor used for?
Thanks im thinking with some friends to start doing a speakers with the same chip as you use, i read that is not the best option to make a soundbar or similar, ill hope to be in contact with u, i have some pdf about csr configuration that can help you more than me. Sorry if you dont understabd me English im trying to improve
+guillermo rojo I don't know - seems like the perfect option to me :) - I did make 3 videos on how to set up the name, equaliser and disable the microphone if it's not needed, that should get you guys pretty far in making a proper speaker
Does the universal front end work for csr8675? Or can you link me to a compatible version?
write me an email

following these steps I get 3 keys instead of 2 you show here. And when i merged them and power off and on the module the eq settings are not loaded:/ what am i doing wrong? I did not do the 48khz settings yet, do you paste those above the 44.1khz keys?
the location of where you paste the keys is irrelevant, they get moved to their correct location anyway
it's best practice to manipulate the small .psr you get from the FrontEnd directly
as in, just click merge in PSTool and select the tiny .psr you got from the FrontEnd
>> also, when anything goes wrong, it's insanely crucial and the bestest practice by far to start from scratch with a very default dump flashed on your chip
>> to do this, first go Factory/Erase All or Restore all I don't remember the exact name (in PSTool) ... you need to do this because 'merge' is only additive, you can't erase anything 'wrong' that way
@@Darieee Thanks this worked great! Got the chips to keep their eq configs:)
awesome man! glad it worked out
I do have to make a comprehensive 1 video to rule them all on the csra64215 ... just insanely busy atm ...
these videos were also super rushed out, and so a lot of shit can be done better (like merging the psr file not the text manually)
but, meh ... it is what it is
@@chribzzz I'm having the same problem, that no EQ settings are loaded after the module is restarted. Could you explain how you solved it?
Hey man, I know it probably is asking too much, but do you now of a way to conect to the dsp using ftdi chips?
Iorf's driver doesn't work with the UFE, as far as I know
The csr usb-spi is away too expensive, the cheaper I can get is 80 BRL
I don't know man, 80 reals is kind of a decent price for one of those
Given that I've only worked with them so far ... absolutely no idea
@@Darieee Thanks for the answer, but ya know, spending that much with a tool to use a few times is kinda hard, I'll try to setup a filter between module out/amp in
yeah ... I use mine daily ... but even for ocasional use ... given how bad CSR's software is ... knowing that you have eliminated one source of bugs is quite valuable
again obviously - depends on how much you need it - maybe find a like-minded friend to split the cost with xD
@@Darieee Around here we dont have much acces to csr chips, and since I'm not "manufacturing" bt boards, just a personal project, I dont have that much of need to it.
Of course it would be amazing to abuse each and every of this chip capabilities, but that would be for personal knowledge.
Btw, thanks for the care of answering me XD
Don't worry about it! Have fun!
Hi, everybody. Thanks for a video first and I would like to ask about CSRA64110. I have found some offers 5V 5W mono/tws boards in Aliexpress. Did somebody have tried to set EQ wit that chipset?
as long as you can get access to the programming header - you can set up its EQ
@@Darieee It should mean that SCRA54110 should be compatible with same way of programming? Thanks for answer ;)
Hello, is it possible to configure the module to talk between two csr8645?
I think what you're asking about is called TWS and stands for True Wireless Stereo
At a DIY level, as far as I know, at this point in time, the only way you can do this is with two CSRA64215 Modules
Not that. I want to make two-way intercom communication between the two helmets with a microphons.
May be its called - multipoint
And maybe need to microcontrollers for it
yeah .. on that front I can't really help .. no idea
Hello. I'm watching the video.
I am connected to the PST tool
Csr8600 is not connected.
Please let me know the solution.
check your wiring :) is your CSR SPI Programmer detected by windows ? Are you using 32b Windows 7 ?
yes. Using windows 7 32bit. Is the wiring in the naming movie different from the EQ wiring?
Pst tool works well.
but not csr8600 manager.
Here's all the programs I've got - most likely a different version will work: www.dropbox.com/sh/pl0jquyk9agp04a/AAC9AWPhGczJYeLptptIHOOPa?dl=0
Wiring's the same in all cases :) you just have to have some music playing when trying to connect to the DSP to set the equaliser
I have some bug...everythink works how in your video...but when I connect to other phone the equalizer is in its starting position flat.How I can do that every with I pair have the equalizer setting?
And how I can turn down output volume PStool?
I have no idea how to turn down the volume in PSTool ... I always do it with the Gain selector in the equaliser view
I also don't really understand your problem .. Do you want to set up both the 44.1 Khz and the 48 Khz equalisers ?
When you conect other device like phone or tablet,PC that also have 44.1Khz your equalaizer settings stay the same?
yyyesss ! :D
intresting...also when I copy the parametrs settings like in your video it doesn't work.Only in programm when I download to board then it works
Does the same procedure apply for the csr8635? Thanks for the video!
Welcome, it sure does !
Darieee yeeees! you've solved a major problem of mine by making this video. Thanks a lot!
that was the purpose :D - I've had huge headaches the first time too, just not knowing random simple shit .. couldn't let that happen to you guys too
have fun !
that is awesome. bought an amp on banggod voor 10 euro with the 8635 in it. and i didn't know it could do so much.
Make sure to check out the CSRA64215 then ... there are pin-compatible blue-board modules out there -- and those are wwwway more powerful
awesome vid! still not working with Win 10?
Well, some say it does - I'd still download virtualbox and set up windows 7 32b if I were you
Is this important to do if i want to install the CSR8645 in my car radio?
Not really, in your car it’s actually the least important of all places, since most car stereos have equaliser settings, and you can use those. I would recommend renaming your module for added swag though ;)
+Darieee What about the microphone and battery thing?
The battery thing was only an issue when I was programming the chip and powering it off the programmer at 3v3, the microphone is a MUST ! Otherwise whenever you start the car and are on a call, the audio will be routed tomthe stereo (which may or may not be on the CD/bluetooth mode ... a huuuge pain in the ass)
+Darieee Okay thank you
+Nikolaj you’re welcome
What must i do with that: The device connected to USB SPI (334296) does not identify itself as a recognisable algorithm.
Ensure that the device is connected and enabled. I install driver and started it in win 7 64. My opinion it is becouse of Chinise programmer. Cpuld you help?
I most likely can
What you're not doing, is having some music play -- only with an active stream does the DSP become active and thus also programmable
(you're quite lucky, I spent a good few days until someone told me that)
Thank you! But "The algorithm connected to USB SPI (334296) identifies itself as E00C @ 44100 Hz, for which there is no available support." this i saw after start music and conection. In persistents stated 00001f40(8kHz) in "Sample rate in codec input".
So, what chip are you trying to program?
8635
Hmm, the software I have linked here should work ... check my csra64215 videos ... maybe the FrontEnd linked there (newer version) will work better
Can someone help me please? I am not able to get this to working in Windows 7 or Windows 10
In Windows 7, PSTool is not recognizing the USBSPI converter. In the "Choose Transport" window, the "Port" option is completely blank. Windows 7 recongizes the USBSPI, just not PSTool. Does anyone know where I can find a download for the CSR USBSPI Driver?
In Windows 10, PSTool recognizes the USBSPI converter, but when I select it as the port and press OK, I get a message saying "Error Detecting Chip Type (Read failed on USB-SPI)
Are you running Windows 7 from within VirtualBox ?
Darieee , yes I am. I used the tutorial in the description of this video to set up windows 7 in virtual box
Alright, then you most likely didn't install the USB Add-On (not sure if that's its exact name though)
Do that, then for the virtual machine settings, enable the CSR USB SPI Converter to pass through
As for the "Error Detecting Chip Type", that's 99.99% due to a bad connection between the programmer and the Bluetooth Module (I had a wire which was broken inside once .. took me 2 hours to figure out)
Darieee I did enable the USB add-on and Windows 7 definitely sees the USB SPI converter. When I go to "device manager" in windows 7 and click on USB, the USB SPI converter is displayed but next to it there is a yellow triangle with an exclamation point in it. When I click on it, this message (below) appears in the driver info. Any ideas??
"Windows cannot verify the digital signature for the drivers required for this device. A recent hardware or software change might have installed a file that is signed incorrectly or damaged, or that might be malicious software from an unknown source. (Code 52)"
Yeah, you need to uninstall PSTool and reinstall it again : at some point you have to make a decision on the transport type (that decision is only shown when installing for 32b)
Check my videos for when I install PSTool under windows 7, and see what I clicked there, off the top of my head I can't remember right now
Do you know if dcm8633 and csr8633 or csr8635 have something in common, Like the pinouts?
Hm, I've actually never heard of the DCM8633 .. which seems to be the CSR8633 ... aand, yes - they do seem to be on the exact same carrier board, so the pinout should be the same
I have to ask though .. what do you have that has a csr8633 ? I've never seen them on anything
I ordered this bluetooth amp from ebay which is showing the chip csr8635 on the picture, but received the one has the dcm8633 instead. Soni guess I can program it then right? I wil try it
TDA7492P 2 x 50 Watt Dual Channel Amplifier Wireless Digital Bluetooth 4.0.. rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F142568936090
In that case 100% sure, they even laid out solder pads for the 4 SPI connections on the bottom right (antenna facing up)
You might have to pull BOTH SPI_EN aand MFB
How's the amp sound ?
I liked it, actually sounds really good. I’m just hoping not to burn the chip while I’m trying to program it
well, if you do, another module's around 4$ including shipping
This doesn’t work for mac computers right? Or Yes?
works just as well with mac / windows / linux, since you have to set up a Virtual Machine (in my case, VirtualBox, which is freely available on all OS') running Windows 7 x32
let me know if you need 'help' 'buying' a copy of windows 7 x32 wink wink
Thanks. I will try to install virtual box
I tried not doing multiple changes at once and got the parameter manager to transfer the EQ settings. One window at a time, uploading in between.
Mmm, there's really no need ... and there's a faster way of doing stuff than what I show there
Click the glasses, set your stuff up from the blue interface, click glasses again, hit save PSR -> merge that all at once with PSTool
Darieee. I tried that without success. I dont know if the newer csr usb-spi converter is much different from the old. New does not have pinout labeled at least.
Uuu, yeah then perhaps try opening it - sometimes they write the pinout on the boards
10 out of 9 times there's a problem though - it's a dodgy connection between the programmer & csr board
I did open it, measured the voltages and found pin-out. that is ok..
What i find complicating is getting the data retained and getting warning sounds low or off. As i understand there is only one config file in the CSR module and all parameters should be given there if they are not the default setting. is this correct?
You said you managed to skrew up the data in the Head-set config tool. Are you saying that if some functions like "Link Loss sound" are removed it might skrew up to not work?
So you're saying that your eq config only works in the Live-Mode (blue diagram) ?
That is correct, there's a properties store where all the params are saved
What I meant was if you remove ALL sounds (so, not just the low batt sound), it'll screw the module up, and you can retrieve it in PSTool using the Restore All option, but it's a pain in the ass
I cant connect to setting equalizer on CSR64215. Can you help me?
who knows, most likely yes I'd say
Darieee sorry, my english is very bad. So i cant what you say on video clip. I just make follow you the mouse click. After i connected, it say Recent Connection : The device connected to USB SPI (607254) does not identify itself as a recogisable algorthm. Ensure the the device is connected and enabled.
i working on Window XP and do not install virtualbox... 🤓
Music has to be playing in order for that to work
Darieee Yes, csr64215 module working i2s output mode
On Win 8.1 x64, i am able to connect to device and rename it, using PSTool, no problem.
But, when i try to connect with Universal Front End, i get:
"The device connected to USB SPI (623035) does not identify itself as a recognisable algorithm.
Ensure that the device is connected and enabled."
Any ideas? thx!
Yes - you have to have music playing, otherwise frontend won't work
@@Darieee thx but do have musc playng :(
Try under win7 x32
@@Darieee if i can download it someplace. Is TX supposed to be connected? Is SPI_PCM the only pin that needs a resistor? I have SPI_PCM (w resistor), BAT and POWER_EN going straight to 3V3 (on the SPI adapter). I have CSR GND and LED's (w resistors) to SPI gnd/ Correct thx!
I don't really get what you're talking about, but I could point you in some direction regarding the windows
Find my email in the about section here and write me up
Hi man I'm considering buying a CSR8645 to make a portable BL speaker I wouls like to ask you, are these the amplified boards? (On aliexpress you can find some that claim "5W+5W stereo CSR8645") If so, can you comment on the battery consumption, and sound quality ( unequalized), does it sound loud?......And if this are not the amplified boards, what are you using for amplification?
Thanks in advance and excuse the inconveniences.
Lucas
+lucasmonta1 hey - check my other video on this
I made exactly one of those from a kit more or less : ua-cam.com/video/Ly_9Cbx4O9Q/v-deo.html
More in-depth build logs on Barry’s UA-cam (linked there).
The 5+5s are amplified - what I’m configuring here is unamplified (in the case of these boards they just contain a chip that turns the signal from differential to single ended.
Battery consumption is stupid low, I initially installed 2 18650s and uppon reopening the speaker removed one (3000mAh gives somewhere around 10h of playback time, mileage does vary based on volume and genre though). Conclusion : extremely efficient amp this one.
Unequalized t sounds like garbage I’m afraid - and, if you get good speakers (why I used barry’s kit - he vets the parts and his cut is quite small), it sounds decently loud for the size.
Dude, there is another way to install this software on Windows 10. Change the compatibility to windows 7 in the properties of the programme (run this program in compatibility mode for).
Mhm, there sure is, but it doesn't work
Or at the very least it didn't for me
Did it work for you ???
@@Darieee There is some issues but, it kind of working for me now. Anyway thanks for the good content man. It helped me so much with my project.
Gladly! You seem to not have yet bricked any of your modules - once that happens you'll be running a 32bit vm in no time
Also, do consider upgrading to the CSRA64215. The same modules (isolated / 5+5W amplified) are now available for it as well, and there the software is compatible with windows
@@Darieee I am actually pimping the Logitech Bluetooth module (CSR 8630). I successfully rename the device but, I can not touch the equaliser settings apparently. It's always says, kalimba not ready(Could not acquire interlock - 'ack' was not received. Winsock says 'connection timed out') also, showing a error message, Kalkockd Error.
In between, I didn't solder the SPI_EN pin, might me that is issue, maybe you can give a good input in this, thanks
Oh no don't dump on your desktop!
🤣🤣 I always dump there .. don't see the problem
Bla bla. If u goes straight it will cover in 5 minutes or less
I lost my bluetooth chip rom (csr64215) ,because I loaded the wrong program. ! thankyou.
First of all thanks for your videos, I wanted to check the following: I am working from a PC that has Windows 7 32bits and I was able to run the "PSTools" without problems and change the name, with "CSR Universal Front End" I have not been able to configure it, I get the following error "The transport USB SPI (00547) cannot be opened. Ensure that the device is connected and enabled." I did the procedure as samples in the video to play music before connection and nothing. If you can help me I would appreciate it.
