Hi everyone! Over the past few months, I’ve completed the engineering of a brand-new MB6582-inspired synthesizer, designed entirely from the ground up. While fully compatible with the classic Midibox Midibox SIDV2 architecture, this new design focuses on modern manufacturing, clean layout, and improved reliability. The name - "PHL8580" What’s New? Premium factory-made ENIG front panel PCB 4 PIC cores inside, maintaining MB6582-style operation All PCBs, including the front panel, PCB factory manufactured Support for ArmSID, Kung Fu SID, and original 6581 / 6582 / 8580 chips Clean, modern internal design with easy assembly Due to licensing, production and sales is currently limited to 10 units, therefore I will be offering 9 units for sale (I'll save one for myself). I am offering it here. The price is well below other available MB6582 assemblies on the market, without the SIDs its only 420 EUR, delivery from the EU: Actually, I want to ask the founders and core developers to broaden the production. What am I offering? As I see no major updates over few years, I want to add new fresh air to the development and so - If I receive permission to manufacture these synthesizers without listed limitations, I will: Developing and improving the software/electronics side of the project free of charge Donating financially wherever the original authors request Releasing the PCB sources for the new-engineered MB6582-compatible synths, as well as for my sammichSID and sammichFM clones, so anyone can build these legendary projects themselves. I will release everything including frontpanels, CAD files and so on - so everyone can assemble the devices at home. Creating a next-generation MB6582 on MIOS32, running on an STM32 core - a modern evolution of the classic design I will try to record some videos and publish on YouTube soon.

Hi there,<br /> I'm new on here, looking for a fully-built MB6582.<br /> Please DM me if you have one you are interested in selling.<br /> I'm very happy to buy on condition if in the future I want to sell it on again I offer it back on here to the Midibox community at a non-hiked price.<br /> Cheers
