Oh, I missed that part. Didn't realize it used both ports, in that case getting it working on a genMDM would be quite a bit more tricky.

Ok, I see. But thank you anyway.

@catskull - you would need two of the sega interfaces though huh for the dual ports?

Well, I got Synthcart already. I‘m looking for a MIDI interface for connecting Synthcart to my DAW.

Hi,

is there any chance to get hold of the MIDI interface perceived by little scale?

Unfortunately I have zero soldering skills and I would like to buy an assembled unit. Does anyone have a spare one to sell?

Thanks!

Looks like the code could be flashed to a genMDM with little to no changes. You'd need a separate 2600 flash cart of some kind though.

Hey everyone - does anyone know if these MIDI Joys are still around and for sale? It looks like it was a limited batch quantity and now are no longer being made - is that right?

Otherwise I'm looking at the MIDIbox TIA as an option to get MIDI out from my DAW to trigger the onboard sound chip and output audio...

Any help would be appreciated!

Kitsch bent still sell them at $85. Otherwise the build process seems pretty simple. Though not too sure of the midijoy works with the synthcart. That's what I would like to know :-)

I am also revisiting the idea of adding midi to my 2600. I have a full synthcart setup.

I have been looking at the midijoy project. Does anyone know if it is possible to use the midijoy to control the synthcart?

Thanks.

These were built by Paul and are fully tested and factory sealed.
I can work with you on price.

Amazing! I knew there had to be some of these around. PM’ing, thanks!

This looks awesome thanks for the heads up! Very convenient, especially if it doesn’t require being hooked up to a console (which I’m guessing m it doesn’t need to be). I am looking at that (not bad) price and considering the time it might take vs just getting a prebuilt MIDIJoy (about $130 for me here in Canada), but the small form factor of the MIDIBox is definitely a plus.

@TSC good to know it’s an easy build, thanks. I don’t have a lot of time these days.
