You can have up to 3 patched LSDJ's and the limitation really depends on the length and complexity of the songs as it does in any LSDJ cart. So yes, many songs on each LSDJ. Each of my patched LSDJ ROM's use 56Megabits out of the 256 so that will give you an idea of how many other ROM's you can get on there. Usually quite a lot!

Just to clarify witha256 cart you could have two patched lsdj's running each with 64 songs
Or one with 64 and a load of other roms ?
To good to be true

found what i was looking for here http://chipmusic.org/forums/topic/15601 … ge/page/2/

wife probably won't approve the purchase until my next paycheck.

Then the Menu ROM needs to be ammended to point to the ROM's locations on the Flash. This can all be done in the command line if you don't mind converting a few numbers from decimal to Hex. Before I finished my compiler code, it was all done this way. After a few compilations, I could build the ROM file and patch the Menu in around 5 minutes.

I can talk you though it if you want to have a go.

I haven't attempted the ROM compiler (combining multiple roms for use on the one cart). How confident are you with python?

You can always dual boot

I have even shipped packages to France and had the Germans take a day trip to pick up in France to avoid the Custom's Nazi's!

I don’t know how it is in “Romania” concerning tax and fees for packets outside of EU, but in DK and DE you get ripped off by customs authorities at the border wink

Yeah, I know.

That's mostly why I was asking about the possibility of there being a EU distributor.
