TK. Posted September 16, 2005 Report Posted September 16, 2005 This is the MIDIbox SID made by Rio.Note the special panel design - he just re-used the keyboard PCB of his canibalized C64 :) Quote

tarzan boy Posted September 16, 2005 Report Posted September 16, 2005 great!! I love this! I was thinking of using a PCB but I hadnt even taken apart my keyboard to realize there was a big PCB under it! the only thing stopping me from using this idea is the fact that this now has been done!! :-\i cant tell from the detail in the photo, which IC is that next to the LCD?

Rio Posted September 17, 2005 Report Posted September 17, 2005 ;D the chip on the frontpanel is a fake - He is radiator mascot of my MIDIBox SID. Inside there are 2x MOS8580 and 2x MOS6581.I used the Keyboard PCB, because i don't have actually the money and the time for a real design frontpanel. I looked around my room, searching for anything to build a panel. Then i found the board under the C64 Chassies, and thought: "Whooops, that should be enough for a real panel design" - I don't need to buy something else.more pictures under: http://www.rattenrudel.de/C64.htm Quote
