I started hunting old C64's, but before i pay anything i wanna be sure that if im gonna build MIDIBox SID with many SID Chips do the all chips need to be the same model? So what i mean can i have two new SID's and two old at same time?

Hello I'm interested of making MIDIBox SID and i´d like to order the parts now. Here at Finland electronic parts cost little too much so i thought i could maybe order the parts from Germany? I checked some Germany's electronic site's but they didn't support English language so much :p Where do i get the parts for reasonable price?

Thanks! I think for starters im gonna get one C64 and build Core And SID Modules so i can play sid music trought it. After that i can build more stuff, like Control units and maybe add more SID:s if necessary I love modular design! ;)

I've decided to build one of those MIDIBox SID thingys since its documented so good and the modular design makes it a very nice project. I still have some questions that i am unsure and i´d like to be sure, before i start :p 1. Where do i get SID chip(s)? I dont have any old C64's and buying those rare old machines costs a fortune? Is there someone selling SID Chips? 2. What is the difference when you have 1 SID chip and 4 SID chips and how bout 2 and 3? How many should i have? 3. Can i have the Complete Control Surface with only 1 SID chip? 4. Internet site in Germany that sells electronic parts
