You're putting a lot of faith into someone with a history of ripping people off.

(but which one?)

it sounds pretty smooth so probably 8580. It's probably fun but can an interface like this harness the full capabilities of the SID outside of a tracker environment?

sequencer is taken from x0xb0x, sid synth presumably from midibox

Highly unlikely the SID synth firmware is MIDIbox SID. They already got called out for copying of my MB-6582 design without permission.

So I doubt they would try that again. Plus it looks totally different, hardware and software.

I could go on, buy my lawyers advise me not to, apparently sharing opinions that offend people is unlawful (at least in Australia).

It also SEEMS to have a real SID built in (but which one?), both from the sound and from what they write... I mean

Also check out the NERD-PANEL, a powerful interactive blueprint which enables you to address the chip one pin at a time - also a great educational tool.

wooot!

The built in sequencer makes it sound too much like a TB303 in my opinion, but midi and ipad control? Count me in if it's reasonably priced.

I know this is not commodore product, but it has to do with this. I'll find out when the price of buying it and I think it is realistic.
