Jaicen Posted September 2, 2006 Report Share Posted September 2, 2006 I'm ready to order the components for my MBSID when I get paid next week, so it's time to make up my mind on exactly what configuration I need. I've pretty much decided that I want a dual SID setup, with an 8580 and 6581 (or a 6582 if anyone has a spare ;) ). The thing is, i'm not sure that I really need a dual SID setup, or wether I should just go with one for now. For those with this combination, how often do you use them both? Does anyone have any samples I can hear?? I've gotta get this thing built by the end of the month so I can start gigging it, so any advice I can get would be great!

The only thing that can answer this is your style of music making :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaicen Posted September 2, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2006 Well that can be pretty easily demonstrated by checking out my Myspace pageswww.myspace.com\lemonteargas - I've been drafted in by these guys to do some keyboards on their new songs, which are a bit more electronic. www.myspace.com\teammeatmusic - This is my band homepage. At the minute it only has demos on, but it gives an idea of the type of music I make. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tel3 Posted September 12, 2006 Report Share Posted September 12, 2006 Many people say there are definite +'s and -'s with both SID versions. just search around the forum and the internet and you will find many explanations on this topic.I am building a Quad-SID box using both 6581(2) and 8580(2). I'm not quite finished yet though. I will try to give you my thoughts on using both as soon as I finish it...-tel3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
