2x6581 sid midibox


Vince

Recommended Posts

Well, after a long time dubbing I decided to order some stuff at smashtv to begin.

I've made a little partlist of the parts I need for this project:

2x 6581

1x Core Kit with the PIC18F452

1x DIN kit

1x DOUT kit

2x Sid Kit

1x C64 PSU

Am I missing some crucial parts?

The most important thing is that I can use the sid midibox through midi parameters with my pc.

chears, Mr. V.

Am I missing some crucial parts?

What I would call "crucial" minimum requirements anyway...

2x "BankStick" chip: the 24LC512... this lets you store patchesone for the default preset patches, one for your own creations.

2x Cores: if you want to use two SID modules with MB-SID v1, you need two Cores in a Master-Slave configuration.

1x "2x20 character LCD or PLED": if you're buying a DIN and DOUT module, I guess you're planning a "step B" control surface. Upgrade to a 2x40 character display for 10 parameters shown at once!

1x rotary encoder, buttons, LEDs.

The most important thing is that I can use the sid midibox through midi parameters with my pc.

... but this is painful, trust me. Good enough to test your SID before you finish a control surface, but no fun in the long term.
