A bit of advice for anyone else looking for one, most of the reputable resellers will have a stock notification system. There are ways to have your phone play an alert if an email comes from specific senders. I also watched rpilocator.com like a hawk Note that most of the aforementioned reputable …

if by minimum you mean the 1GB RAM version then yes - it is more than enough :) 1GB RAM, No eMMC, no WiFi... the absolute minimum features. This is great news, because I ALSO got my hands on a 4GB RAM, 32GB eMMC, WiFi one too... and I felt that that would be overkill. It will serve me better …

I managed to get my hands on a minimum spec CM4. Will it be enough?

Is there a way to deduct VAT when ordering from serdashop? I started to check out, but the VAT is nearly $40 and I'm in the US so I don't need to pay it.

I want to go on the list, but my wallet does NOT want me to go on the list. I will wait for the public release to give it a breather [edit]Actually, that depends. How much will it cost?[/edit]

Just got mine today and it's beautiful. Hope to get a chance to try it out in-game tomorrow. I have a question, though. I have a sketchy, cheapo usb-to-midi cable that I was gonna use with munt on a laptop in order to test it out. Are the outputs optoisolated? Because I don't know if the cable is …

Are these still on track to be available on serdashop.com soon? Not that I should be buying one so soon after dropping a ton of cash on an Orpheus.

I ordered the full package and have since realized that I won't be needing the DreamBlaster and in fact it will get in my way since I want to use the header in order to internally connect an MT32 emulator. I assume that when my order comes up I will be able to downgrade? Also, and this is very …

Mine had a sticker in the lower right advertising that it came with games. And it wasn't a simpler version, it sounded exactly identical. It was a DOS program if that helps. I feel like it was called Delta something? Maybe something Delta?

The first sound card I ever got was a Sound Machine, and it came with a few floppies. Wolfenstein 3D, Commander Keen, and a demo for some music composing software. The demo played this exact song . I have no idea what the name of the software demo was, or the name of the song. Can anyone tell me at …

Another question: Where the hell did you find a 20x2 display? I can't find anything but 16x2 and 20x4.

A few questions: How is the midi to uart circuit working? You said you were going to give it another go? Where did you get your led strips? I'm not seeing any with that tight spacing and that diffused casing. Would you be willing to share your files for that gorgeous laser cut box? I'm looking …

So I need an optocoupler to fix the Chinese midi cable and then another on the pi side? I don't know much about optoisolstors, is the sfh618a-4 an appropriate chip?

So I just hook up the rx and tx lines to the din connector? That seems too simple.

So if I just want an input it's unnecessary?

I don't know if I'd go that far. If it costs anywhere near the X3M, I might as well buy a real MT-32. I just want to hook up the usb to midi cable I bought and the 20x2 display I already have, maybe with some pushbuttons and a rotary encoder for menus. If the cable has the proper optoisolator in it, …

So, if I wanted to put this in a box, with a midi in socket and a 16 column display, what do I need? I'm pretty sure I need an optocoupler in there, but that's the extent of my knowledge. I'm using a raspberry pi 3. [Edit]make that 20 column. Just counted. [/Edit]
