@9Kolt autoroute is the second worst Altium app. First one is autoplacer. Two useless pieces of garbage. Mentor autoroute works, but one needs a somewhat chunkier checkbook.
@duychiendtk4 You can start routing in PCB-mode by pressing P then T (Place > Track) and then selecting a starting point for your track. Press left-mouse button to confirm segment placement or double-click right mouse to end routing session. You can also modify routing width by pressing shift+W while routing or by pressing TAB-key. check out my AD10 Layout video for more details. Hope this helps.
@DanFrederiksen It's generally not advisable to route two signals in parallel (on top of each over or next to each other) because of the capacitve coupling that exists between the tracks.. If, on the other hand, I had a solid ground plane separating the tracks (on the middle layer), I could easily route them as you've suggested because ground plane would act as a shield. That is why I placed left channel on top and right on bottom layer.
@DanFrederiksen capacitance does not go sideways, upwards or downwards... as long as you have some conductors relatively close to each other on a pcb and they are at some potential (voltage-difference) there will be coupling between them (capactive or inductive). Sometimes it's beneficial (like in power distribution networks), sometimes it's not..
@bagatelox Only Proteus can simulate PIC and AVR microcontrollers. In Altium you can only simulate FPGA code via third party vendor tools (and softcores).
@bagatelox Well, there are two versions of Multisim out there: The first one is an student evaluation version from Cadence (before National Instruments acquired them), this version cannot simulate micro-controllers, the other version, which is owned by National Instruments cannot simulate micro-controllers either. I think that you're stuck with Proteus. So I suggest that you use Proteus for simulation and some other tool for layout.
@Poefromtechpb Well, AutoRoute sucks when it comes to EMC protection of the PCB in question (and general routing rules for that matter), hence it is useless. When I do a design know exactly which trace is analog and which is digital (autoroute does not give a flying f... about them) and I know exactly how to rute them to avoid reduction in audio performance of the pcb or overshoot or ringing on digital lines. But you can do an autoroute first and edit afterwards, but that's for pussies :)
@antoker Altium includes many features to help with EMC protection. Additionally it provides many features you could have taken advantage of during your manual routing. If this is a legal copy I would suggest you take advantage of the tutorials and online classes they offer for free.
Although running Autoroute and changing it later would have reduced that to a 20 minute layout, manually routing the board using some of these features could have easily cut your time in half.
@Poefromtechpb: Well, Signal Integrity analysis does not count, just because there are not enough SI models to completely test your board, except for impedance-controlled routing. I'm aware of both auto-complete and bus-routing features that could have helped me during the layout phase, I've only used altium (layout part) for three weeks or less when i designed this board and yes, this copy is legal, so pardon me for being a bit slow :) I'm still a bit sceptical about autoroute. :)
wowow! Wonderful work man! You are a big!

Hello!
Why you don't use automatic trace? It is in this program?

I dont know how to route it by hand ? I mean about shortcut key =.=

any reason you route the blue wires in the beginning around the red? why not just straight under

@antoker In rev B of the pcb I've also increased the distance between the tracks and flooded the void with ground to further decrease the copupling.

@antoker He said, "Ain't it easier to just auto-route that and avoid that long work??', the video is greate XD"
Ha!
BTW, took your advice about dragging components, it worked :D

Altium can simulate pic microcontrollers? Or Proteus is the best tool to make it?

@bagatelox Only Proteus can simulate PIC and AVR microcontrollers. In Altium you can only simulate FPGA code via third party vendor tools (and softcores).

@antoker DO you have some information about Multisim, if can simulate PIC too like proteus? Thanks for the answer....
