I had an idea for 3 somewhat related features to be added to the player. 1) SID clock frequency autodetection... 2) Software scaling of voice frequencies... 3) Software adjustment of the filter cutoff frequency... What do you people think? I've answered those question in PM, but I'll repeat here. …

Is this a single-card, pseudo-stereo version? Yes, it is a single card, output is not yet defined. It can be set as stereo (one SID on the left, another on the right), or as mixed mono with 6 voices, or output of one SID can be directed into an input of another. Or, somehow, I can make it …

I've send a feedback to noop about version ssid_w32_1_2a3 , but I didn't tried ssid_w32_1_2a4 yet. In the meanwhile some utter craziness going on... Not yet announced, not sure if it will be done or not... But here is "alpha" version of project DiSSI . Скриншот 2016-07-13 02.46.51.png That's two SSI …

BTW, is there a C64 emulator that can be modded to use the Innovation replica as a 'pass-through' sound device? Well... The only available *.SID player (alpha version) is based on ReSIDfp emulator. I don't know any other method to make a player, because *.SID is not a *.MIDI-like file, it contains …

I think I'll rise up some old questions... I also have a question, regarding pitch. I tried playing with the jumper to switch between 0.89 and 1.02. Yes the pitch changed, but neither option seemed to create notes at the same height as the other sound cards, making the SSI-2001 replica 'out of tune' …

Finally! I've got new batch of PCBs, another 30 pcs. Not all parts are ready for all of the boards yet, but I'm working on it. I think there will be enough parts for current orders and more to come for future ones. Now it's time for me to inform everyone via PM...

Nice choice of colour, Fagear; they look like special editions. Well... It's just the color of bare PCB. :lol: If there are spares going, I'd love to order those brackets as well Any info on the brackets, ready for sale Fagear? :) We are anxious... Yep! Got today another batch of PCBs for my …

Hello, everyone. carlostex brought me to this topic. He thought that probably it is a good idea to made a board with CMS and SID on one PCB. But... When I was working on SSI-2001 replica I had a thought that probably it is a great idea to build an "all-in-one" board. PCM output probably can be …

Does it help to see the hidden traces? Hi! Unfortunately, not quite. I've added some more traces after your photos, but I need to see under all ICs. And also around output connectors. Photos from various shallow angles will be much appreciated. Current progress: http://fotkidepo.ru/photo/229919/ …

You always spend time, money, or miss something else, like time for play with a children. Even 400$ don't cover all my spends, besides, that nobody want to buy with this price. I want just a little clarification... You've got 3 x "PCB + parts" kits, 3 x "Fully assembled board" in total and 5 new …

Well, not a nice situation. I think the best fix for this is: do another batch of PCB and go to Amibay with "official" prices.
