thanks for viewing this thread.  I'm very interested in finding information, related to the birth and becoming of the Midibox SID concept. I guess, as the creator of the project, a man fully confident in this is Thorsten, and also maybe others, which i still don't know of.   I'd love to hear a story of how it all begun and you discovered/rediscovered the power of commodore's SID, and decided to build an OS and hardware for it. Also, i think this information is a historical candy, and nice add to upload on midibox SID wiki' History page, side by side with techincal changelog.  ::)   Thanks in advance. Kart
