this was my first SID unit (built several years ago)

then i decided to add at least a minimum control surface (and a second SID!)

now, i have decided to upgrade it once more and add a complete control surface (ready for version 2.0, not yet installed)
there are 2x8580 inside!

i pretty happy with it. the only problem i've got so far is with the filter of the second sid. it works, but the filter at extreme settings works very bad, and is very different from the other sid.
i have still to check where is the problem, if in the caps, in the chip itself or in a bad solder somwhere....


the question is: why i didnt built the stepC at the beginning?! i donì't know... maybe i was too lazy! :D
anyway, i didnt trashed anything, except the case and some buttons!

PS: if you are interested in the "new C64 case" (the middle one) with the buttons, 1 encoder, wiring almost ready for connections... you just pay the shipping costs!  :P

Hahahah...well, we always say to people around here: you can always start small, and make it grow later... This is a great example!
