u-link Posted December 28, 2015 Report Posted December 28, 2015 Please add me to the list, too! Thanks a lot! Quote
jaytee Posted December 28, 2015 Report Posted December 28, 2015 So, I can't update the wiki, but with those last two, that's 48(+2). Does that mean anything? Quote
edanderson Posted December 29, 2015 Report Posted December 29, 2015 Saw those old Yamaha FM chips in a box the other day and it popped into my head to see if another order ever got started... glad to see some movement in that direction! Please put me down for one full kit minus the FM chips. Thanks, Ed Quote
falfa Posted January 15, 2016 Report Posted January 15, 2016 This is going to be great. BTW, I presume most of you already have seen this clip, showing a Synclavier owner who wrote a program in C to emulate the famous fm Gong sound (e.g. Michael Jacksons Thriller) on an OPL2. Nice :-) 1 Quote
psxc Posted January 30, 2016 Report Posted January 30, 2016 ArnoNym: I answered here already in the beginning of 2014 so please add my name on the preorder list as well - 1 full kit :) thanks! Quote
Okko Posted February 20, 2016 Report Posted February 20, 2016 Would it be possiple to order two kits? Quote
jaytee Posted February 22, 2016 Report Posted February 22, 2016 8 months since the waiting list started... Is this actually happening? Quote
Academic Planner Posted February 25, 2016 Report Posted February 25, 2016 We should now be at 50 preorders if we counted psxc and Okko. Maybe we all wait longer? 1 Quote
ErMangaver Posted March 13, 2016 Report Posted March 13, 2016 Hello, I've added myself to the list. Hope is OK. Quote

Academic Planner Posted March 23, 2016 Report Posted March 23, 2016 Is everyone accounted for? I feel like we've already hit 50 preorders despite the list saying otherwise. Also, any word on the overlays? The sammichSID looked great with them and I'm sure the sammichFM would be no exception. Quote
falfa Posted April 2, 2016 Report Posted April 2, 2016 Sorry for being off-topic, but here's someone that makes whole albums with OPL3 only, amazing good, don't miss this: Diode Milliampere - YMF262 (2014) [ FULL ALBUM ] Quote
Keeze Posted April 3, 2016 Report Posted April 3, 2016 Hi, Can I still sign in for a kit without the case, LCD/Leds? Cheers, Kees Quote

Academic Planner Posted May 2, 2016 Report Posted May 2, 2016 The initial email went 3+ years ago, the waiting list was established over 1 year ago, we hit over 50 preorders (list not completely updated) and there hasn't been any sort of official word on an update. I'd think it's pretty safe to say this isn't happening. Compound this with the recent Volca FM release and this is making even less sense. Prove me wrong? (again) Quote
Hawkeye Posted May 2, 2016 Report Posted May 2, 2016 Hola, While - without feedback on that matter from either nILS or Wilba for about half a year - nobody really knows, if or when it will take place, it is safe to say, that building an original MIDIbox FM as documented on ucapps.de surely is still an option to get a MIDIbox FM :). Big efforts were made by @Sauraen in the last time to build a STM32F4-powered new variant, and @Psykhaze is planning for a different version with a bit bigger CS than the SammichFM, but a smaller CS than Sauraens leviathan (not in a bad way, but probably too expensive and time-intense to build for the standard user) CS. Methinks, there would be a big future for a new version of MIDIbox FM, if there is enough interest and an affordable CS can be designed. Fortunately, imho Volca FM (also PreenFM) are totally different from the OPL3 "signature" sound that just brings back good old DOS-game memories (Dune II, anyone? :-)) Many greets, Peter Quote

(again) Volca FM is a three-voice toy of a synth. Hardly compares to the MBFM, aside from both using FM synthesis. Quote
BulletZ Posted June 14, 2016 Report Posted June 14, 2016 So what's up with this? Is this happening eventually? Quote
ledfyr Posted June 26, 2016 Report Posted June 26, 2016 I realize I'm late but please add me to the list (or maybe there's a reserve list if more than 50 people have signed up). I've mailed Jason, hope this is still happening. The sammichFM seems great: multitimbral, separate outs, awesome OPL sound - all in a neat little box. I'd really like to build one! :) Quote
Academic Planner Posted November 14, 2016 Report Posted November 14, 2016 Bump! I need a sammichFM. Please? Quote
