SID Questions

Ok,    I have a question about the SID module. I was thinking about buying an Elektron Sidstation, that's when I stumbled across the SID module from Thorsten.    

  Can anyone tell me how these two compare, as far as synthesis options and functionality go?

Hi Pat,

the MIDIbox SID hasn't reached the functionality of the SIDstation yet, and I don't plan to clone this product.

The synthesis results are hard to compare, since the LFO/ENV/Pitch generators have been programmed on a different way. So, I think that there are a lot of sounds which can only be realized with a MIDIbox SID, other sounds which can only be realized with a SIDstation.

All features which I plan to implement can be found at http://www.ucapps.de/midibox_sid.html, these are functions from the SIDstation (or in fact functions which have been invented by the C64 hackers in the last 20 years), partly some new things like CV outs, which allow to control analog filters or Fx gear, and a user interface with a lot of pots & buttons :)

Best Regards, Thorsten.
