Thanks but atm there is no need to do anything other than wait... it's just design and making sure the wavetable additions will work correctly. 😀

it's still in the works, half the parts are ordered and pcb is being designed in spare time after long work hours... it's moving but a little slow. I will keep you updated once there is something close to final to present 😀

Sounds awesome keropi. I manged to secure an MT-32 in good condition, so after this midi card it's the easier part left (build a 486 PC 😉)

Maybe Im lost. MPU card is design to talk to the MT32... why are features like wavetable header being added? for what purpose?

well, the card works the same way as the MPU-401AT : both wavetable header and midi-out ports get the same midi data , so like Rackatack comments you have the option to connect a GM daughterboard and a MT-32 and with a simple sound selector you chose what you want to hear.
The wavetable header will not be plagued with bugs, hanging notes, TSRs and drivers - it will just work and will give you a trouble-free experience.

@Cadderlik
there will be enough cards to go around, people that express interest here and in amibay will be on the "reserved list" so I will contact you . All deals are done in amibay forum though.

As the data is sent to both MIDI OUT and wavetable, how are they split? Will a malfunctioning wavetable or external MIDI device cause both devices to stay mute? So just a hint if you have an extra buffer 😀

we are doing it the MPU401AT way so bases are covered. There is also some volume jumpers so loud daughterboards like the XR385 don't clip - this idea was taken from dreamblaster's designs 😀

I have created a google sheet here so people can add their interest over there - I think it's better to organize a little 😀
