Yeah the Roland cards got somewhat pricey in the last few years. :) The Snark Barker or CT1320 reproduction cards cost a fair bit because of the number of separate components and they're all hand-made if you see one for sale. I've built a couple and it's not easy. For the CMS sound chips, my MF-002 …

Ooh it's the same as my Anchor Electronics Media Concept 2.0 card. Thank you very much for scanning and sharing the manual, there are some connectors that I don't know what they do and the text manual version I could find was missing that. Here's my thread on it: https://www.vogons.org/viewtopic. …

I had one of these, down to the same box and bundled software. I cost about 100 CAN$ or so in 1992 or 1993 . It was my first sound card. It identified as DSP version 2.01 Sound Blaster (non pro), AFAICR . It had an OPL2 clone chip onboard to complete things. Sound Blaster compatibility was pretty …

Hello all! Dug up this old sound card today that I purchased a while ago,"Master Boomer J5QMF-00". Anyone got any experience with it? https://loganix.nu/FILES/RETROPC/DRIVERS/11066067.jpg https://loganix.nu/FILES/RETROPC/DRIVERS/11066069.jpg I've included the drivers in this message and a link with …

Hi, Has anyone flashed this motherboard, Gigabyte GA-686BX with the latest Bios, "F2a"? I've downloaded a zip with these files from Gigabyte: 6bx.29 autoexec.bat FLASH840.EXE Would the procedure be, booting to dos with a startup disk, run autoexec.bat and follow the instructions? Thanks for any help …

Cloudschatze, Yes I agree that it's a bit overkill at the moment. I'm just thinking a head as well, if I want to get more modules in the future and connect to several computers with an ease of a switch-box and do some comparing. I'm quite new at this with midi and your suggestion will work the best …

Some comments: A couple of options: - Roland A-880 8 in, 8 out. Primitive, but does the job excellently. Unfortunately rare/expensive outside of Japan Get a Japanese one and do the 5 Volt wall wart conversion. - Edirol UM880. 8x8 instead of UM550's 5x5. Great, but usually VERY expensive. Great …

Thank you for your reply cyclone3d. I agree, it seems that the 550 would be the best choice. Haven't had much luck finding a 550 here in Sweden for sale though, so the simpler choice would be the Kenton and the UM-one mk2 for now perhaps. There are some 550 up for sale from Japan, but one of them …

I use an Edirol 550 (5 in plus 5 out), the 880 does 8 in 8 out. The advantage over a simple switch is that you can use one source for multiple outputs at the same time. Plus nice snazzy 19" rackmount. However cyclone3d's suggestion is most definitely cheaper. Would the Edirol 550 be a good choice …
