Hello everyone!
Over the past few months, I’ve engineered a brand-new MB6582-style synthesizer, deeply inspired by the original Midibox MB6582 but redesigned completely from scratch for improved reliability, easier assembly, and modern component availability.
Key new features:
Premium ENIG front panel PCB - durable, professional finish
4 PIC cores onboard - full MB6582-compatible architecture
Factory-manufactured PCB set, including the front panel
Supports ArmSID, Kung Fu SID, or original 6581/6582/8580 chips
Clean internal layout, solid build, and high-quality components
Prices:
Base unit: 420 EUR + shipping
With Kung Fu SID set: 499 EUR
ArmSID pricing available upon request.
Availability:
The license allows producing 10 units, so I’m offering 9 units for sale.
1 unit is in stock right now
Additional units can be assembled in 3-4 weeks
If I receive permission to sell more broadly, I plan to lower the price and release all design files as open source
I will make a separate thread in Latest News or somewhere else
