New MB6582-compatible synth

[Sgw32]

Hello everyone!

Over the past few months, I’ve engineered a brand-new MB6582-style synthesizer, deeply inspired by the original Midibox MB6582 but redesigned completely from scratch for improved reliability, easier assembly, and modern component availability.

Key new features:

• Premium ENIG front panel PCB - durable, professional finish
• 4 PIC cores onboard - full MB6582-compatible architecture
• Factory-manufactured PCB set, including the front panel
• Supports ArmSID, Kung Fu SID, or original 6581/6582/8580 chips
• Clean internal layout, solid build, and high-quality components

Prices:

• Base unit: 420 EUR + shipping 
• With Kung Fu SID set: 499 EUR
• ArmSID pricing available upon request.

Availability:

The license allows producing 10 units, so I’m offering 9 units for sale.

1 unit is in stock right now

Additional units can be assembled in 3-4 weeks

If I receive permission to sell more broadly, I plan to lower the price and release all design files as open source

I will make a separate thread in Latest News or somewhere else
