If someone gets on the orpheus waitlist today, what's the estimated wait time to get one? Are we talking a couple weeks, months, years?

To be honest, I don't see the point. Even with the Roland GS sample set it doesn't sound exactly like a Sound Canvas, so why bother? GUD and Buran soundfonts for the X2 sound way better to me than the GS samples do, but to each their own I guess.. Going back through this thread, there were some …

Possible, yes. The flash memory can be loaded with the Roland GS bank, at least that's what I gather from reading the tech specs and SDK/tool info. But it's a lot of work and a PITA for Mr. Dreamblaster, because he has to do the work , keep records, pay more money, etc. to do such a thing and …

Licensing wise, X2GS needs to be considered as different product, licensing restrictions prohibit field updating of X2 to X2GS. "field updating". Then is it fair to say that it's possible to create a service where customers send you their X2, and if they cover the licensing fee and return shipping, …

I assembled the device and programmed it using avrdude (avrdude ran in Windows 7, under VirtualBox on a Mac; yes it can be done!) I think the only difficulty someone new to this project will find is the lack of PCB silkscreen of all the components. I had to load the schematics into an online viewer …

tech support did send me an updated sch file and it seems to work. Here's a public osh park share for anyone interested: https://oshpark.com/shared_projects/kAAcvPKp

Matze79, not sure if you get notified of issues in your github repo. The brd files you posted can't be uploaded to oshpark. I submitted a service request, and they got back to me with the following information: "This is due to some of the passive footprints: They contain near-zero sized polygons, …

I contacted the seller. He refunded the entire purchase cost of the SC-55. I ordered the buttons from Digikey (based on my measurements it should be the exact same ones). Should be here in a few days. $20 for new buttons and new main power cap.

With over 1100 positive feedback on eBay (been there for >17 years .. all personal purchases) today I've got the shock of my life. I purchased a Roland SC-55. Paid the king's ransom for eBay's global priority shipping (what a con!). But at least I think I did well. Item was described as "gently used …

Received an SC-55 from eBay today .. CR2032 was going - had white fuzz on it. Removed it just in time!

ARG!!! Keropi! Just take my money and send me that MQ MPU!! 😀

Interested in a card as well. If you are no longer able to make these, can you open source the dump / schematics? It would be a waste to see this work disappear. 🙁

Hi Bossman, I too am in the process of acquiring parts for my Win9X / MS DOS 6.22 dual boot system. I plan on using software and L1/L2/L3 cache trick to slow down my system between Normal / Pentium class / 486 / 386. Here's what I have (+ is purchased/have, - is need to purchase): + K6-III+ 450mhz …
