Here's another video : X1 playing Descent 1 Soundtrack (d1.mid) : https://youtu.be/_nKmbL2aFe0

Unfortunately, it is not possible now to develop soundbanks for this chip unless you have the sound development hardware and software from dream. I bought the sound development kit : http://www.dream.fr/pdf/Serie2000/Short_Forms/2000-SDK_short.pdf and also the compiler/development kit (under NDA!) …

Yes, the 32 mbyte can be used. The 8mbyte soundbank is the highest size general midi set provided by dream for this chip --> this is cleanwave64. I tested using the cleanwave64 general midi bank + 8mbyte for high end piano sound (patch nr 0 and 1), that is 16 mbyte in total, it sounds good. It is …

okay special introductory price will be 79 euro (including VAT and free shipping without tracking nr). 1 prototype going to hard1k !

No final price yet : The cost will depend on how large the first production batch will be. I will need to sell quite a lot to gain back the startup costs. How many people want to buy this ? What would be reasonable price for this ? Anyway, first I finish the software and play some MIDI on it !

hello, the next generation board is ready : dreamblaster X1 i have 4 working prototypes, software is almost done (for waveblaster compatible mode). Any midi files you like me to play on it as a test ?

Yes, the S1 was a single chip solution, the 512kb ROM could not be changed. The next project uses a different chip, using external NOR flash. I will add sufficient to store the 8mbyte dream bank. Probably I'll go for a 32 mbyte NOR flash chip.

Okay, will do.

I am currently working on my next, 'high end' synth project (due to be released by the end of 2015), and looking for reviews of my current S1 module, I bumped into this topic. I think I can explain how the dreamblaster S1 achieves …
