MB Sid in a midi controller...anyone...?

[syntheticsolace]

I have been thinking about making a MBSID of my own and thought it would be neat to put it in the housing of a midi controller.Now i am a complete noob to this,i know practically nothing about making one besides that i need some c64's and to learn what mios is!LOL!So can anyone tell me if this would be possible or if i would run into any problems?

AND IF ANYONE HAS MADE ONE IN A MIDI CONTROLLER SHOW ME SOME PICS!!!

What do you mean for building it in a midi controller? Do you want to reuse the case of a midi controller or wire the controller to the mbsid? Please explain in a more detailed manner your intentions so we can point you in the right direction ;)

i mean leaving a midi controller intact and building the sid right into it so that you have what looks like a full synth.So the midi controller and the sid together would look like it was made like that.I just want my mbsid to have a dedicated keyboard,so why not make the sid right into the housing of the controller i will use to control it!?

you're right . it's better to use a keyboard like the evolution ekey (45e) with midi and usb .

for my sid i had to write an interface . i'm planning to buy the evolution for next project because it's simple and NEW

a sequencer would be very very cool but more like the xoxbox and with the option to make chords....

I would connect the midi out of the controller to the midi in of master core in mbsid and desolder the eventual buttons and connect them to Dins, but I doubt this will be effective as a custom full CS.
