okay so what should I choose ? A or C ? the majority says C ? in my own blind test, there was a slight advantage for C, but not really decisive

I use all isolated resistor networks (all the same part). The first prototypes had 5% tolerance. (also in the packet I sent you). Now I ordered parts with 1% tolerance. We'll see if this solves the issue

@retrocanada76 - from your website I understand that you are working on a new, improved v2.0, so I will probably wait for that before assembling anything. One humble suggestion I would have: is there any chance that the v2.0 could come in a "MDA only" variant? This would be nice for people (like me …

yeah this is in the pipeline (an LPT version ), but many other projects before it, I first want to implement soundchips that ARE supported by games (makes more sense), so it will take a long time until i get to it.

Hi, some bad news from the assembly factory, they 'forgot' to order the CVX4 pcb panels, so the assembly of the next batch is delayed. new timing : It will be ready by end february/early march. I do have the new CVX4 3d printed enclosures ready : http://www.serdashop.com/CVX4-3d-printed-enclosure

I hope this helped. This helps a lot !! I have a suggestion : do a real 'blind' test : have someone else click A B or C, and you guess if it is A B or C Would C still have the most impact ? My initial idea was indeed a sidewards pointing potmeter, like on opl2lpt but I got feedback from a 2 people, …

thanks for the deep analysis, don't look at the waveforms, purely judge by your ears. my conclusion is, it all sounds very close so what you vote, go for sound C ? or sound A ?

Will the OPL2LPT work on a modern computer with a parallel port? If so, how can I test the device on a modern version of windows? I am planning to get a parallel port add-on card for my custom built PC, so I want to know if the OPL2LPT works on modern systems before I buy anything. Yes, that can …
