Oh wow. Mine came yesterday and I had to pay 26,65 € on top. I chose USPS for shipping.
Why not hook it up to a KVM switch?
Mine came +- 1 week and ... 45 euros to pay to Bpost... 🙁
And i don't understand how to use it, would it be possible to have a PDF manual for the IDE Simulator V3 card? Indeed, I received the card without anything else and the documentation on the wabsite is very basic I find. With which file system should I prepare the USB key? What is the maximum size for the USB key, where should I connect the audio cable from the CD-ROM, etc. Maybe there is a forum or a discord? I find that it is very average for an item at this price (no disrespect). The Ide Simulator V3 read/see only one ISO and problem with CD audio sound, reading speed etc... 🙁
Absolutely no problem at all with the Zulu Ide on the same machine... (The Zulu Ide + dac is a beast).
Vous devriez voir ce que je vois.

I don't have the v3. I have the previous version. I found the documentation on the website sufficient to use it. But, yes, I agree. It would have been nice to get some basic instructions in the box.
What problems are you having with CD audio and reading speed? How does speed/audio with same images compare to the Zulu?
I suppose some kind of quick start guide would be good, I can put it on the back of the packing slip. I'll need to think of what it should actually say since the various use cases are quite different (e.g. the people using it in a Roland sampler vs PCs vs the original arcade uses. I do have an unfinished PDF manual I already sent trunk70 after they requested it by email)
And sorry about the tariffs, I did hear the Canada ones in particular are terrible. Especially disappointing since I'd tried to get the prices down for this version. Also still trying to get the VAT captured during order for the EU and UK (which are done the same way but need handled separately), but the people helping (I've got some relatives in the UK who are accountants) me are still working on it.
