			<description><![CDATA[<b><i>Telerophon says:</i></b><p>Greetings Friends,</p><p>I&#039;ve finally gathered my resources to the point that I feel comfortable creating a more consistent thread, with both finished goods and certain commissions! This will include some regularly available items, as well as one-offs and things from my personal collection that have served their full utility to me. Also included is a list of things I&#039;m currently looking for as trades; please get in touch via PM if you would like to negotiate a trade and have something specified in my sought items list. Without further ado, here&#039;s what I&#039;ve got:</p><p><strong><span class="bbu">Semi-Custom LSDJ Keyboards: $60</span></strong> </p><p>I spent a while doing field research and fine-tuning my methods and materials for producing these, and now feel comfortable doing so as a production item. These are <em><span class="bbu">brand new</span></em> current production PS/2 Keyboards for use with any Game Boy that can run LSDj and accepts a link cable serial input, either via adapter or via built-in PS/2 port (my personal preference). These are tested and fully working with LSDj 4.6.7, and have virtually no complications or compatibility issues. I can test them with your preferred version of LSDj upon request. I&#039;ll include an .LSDSNG with some keyboard patches with purchase if you ask nice. <img src="https://chipmusic.org/forums/img/smilies/wink.png" width="15" height="15" alt="wink" /></p><p>Here&#039;s the flagship, my personal setup:</p><p><a class="postimg" href="http://pbs.twimg.com/media/A0XwVFpCcAECppX.jpg" title="Semi-Custom LSDJ Keyboard &amp;amp; PS/2 port modified DMG-01 Game Boy" id="forum_image_442599"><img src="http://pbs.twimg.com/media/A0XwVFpCcAECppX.jpg" /></a></p><p>Detailed Specs:<br /></p><div class="spoilerbox" id="spoiler2842592"><h3 onclick="$('#spoilerbox2842592').css('display','block');$('#spoiler2842592').css('display','none')">&#8250; Show Spoiler</h3></div><div class="spoilerbox" id="spoilerbox2842592" style="display:none"><h3 onclick="$('#spoilerbox2842592').css('display','none');$('#spoiler2842592').css('display','block')">&#8249; Hide Spoiler</h3><ul><li><p>New production 107 Key PS/2 interface computer keyboard with quiet membrane switches.</p></li><li><p>Custom paint job in traditional tracker &quot;keyjazz&quot; layout with specific LSDj function keys (as detailed in the LSDj Manual).</p></li><li><p>All keycaps included in finished product—&quot;functionless&quot; keys are painted to match keyboard top housing.</p></li><li><p>Keyboard retains original wiring for maximum integrity and compatibility. (See Below)</p></li><li><p>Keyboard retains all original functionality for use with computer. Why not try it with your favorite PC Trackers?</p></li><li><p>Four color paint job—base coat, grey function keys, black and white &quot;piano&quot; keys.</p></li><li><p>Unlabeled keys for comfortable playing and clean aesthetics.</p></li></ul></div><p>I&#039;m currently making these with a red base coat, which is something I first did to emulate the look of the Nord Electro:</p><p><a class="postimg" href="http://www.clavia.se/products/nord%20electro%202/images/mainproductimage.jpg" title="Nord Electro 2 keyboard series" id="forum_image_62225574"><img src="http://www.clavia.se/products/nord%20electro%202/images/mainproductimage.jpg" /></a></p><p>I&#039;m open to making these with an additional level of customization. If you&#039;d like a keyboard with something like different colors, or if you have something else in mind, please do ask in the thread. I&#039;ll look into it and publicly share whether or not I feel that I can offer that and what the price difference(s) would be.</p><p><strong><em>Specifically concerning the wiring and adapters:</em></strong><br /></p><div class="spoilerbox" id="spoiler9736780"><h3 onclick="$('#spoilerbox9736780').css('display','block');$('#spoiler9736780').css('display','none')">&#8250; Show Spoiler</h3></div><div class="spoilerbox" id="spoilerbox9736780" style="display:none"><h3 onclick="$('#spoilerbox9736780').css('display','none');$('#spoiler9736780').css('display','block')">&#8249; Hide Spoiler</h3><p>The price quoted here does not include rewiring the keyboard or an adapter for use with a stock Game Boy. I thought about this for a long time before deciding to begin actively producing these for sale. An adapter is preferable to rewiring the keyboard, because it leaves the original cable and housing intact, and therefore is more mechanically stable, provides a longer cable, and doesn&#039;t limit the functionality of the keyboard to a single form factor of Game Boy link port. I can make adapters, but link cables are becoming more expensive and harder to find here, building the adapters adds significantly to my production time, and I think building a PS/2 port into a game boy is a better solution long term. Ready made adapters are <a href="http://asmretro.com/accessories/ps-2-adapter" target="_blank">available from ASMRetro</a>, and many modders such as <a href="http://thursdaycustoms.com/" target="_blank">Thursday Customs</a> can build a PS/2 Port into your Game Boy.</p></div><p><strong><span class="bbu">From The Collection</span></strong></p><p><strong><em>NEW</em> Bright White nonfinite V3 ULTRA DMG/MGB Backlight Kit: $15 Shipped!</strong></p><p>This is one of the <a href="http://www.nonelectronics.com/catalog/index.php?main_page=product_info&amp;cPath=10&amp;products_id=168&amp;zenid=i04f0tljdtuthnn644orlumkp0" target="_blank">nonfinite V3 ULTRA backlight kits</a>, the latest ones he has produced. I ordered two of these a while ago and only installed one. I ended up wanting to do something different with my personal game boys, so this one was never installed. I have, however, already installed the resistor, so that will save you a step. <img src="https://chipmusic.org/forums/img/smilies/wink.png" width="15" height="15" alt="wink" /></p><p><em>Note that although the product description states otherwise, you will still want to cut the bottom of the LCD frame to install these.</em></p><p><a class="postimg" href="https://pbs.twimg.com/media/A7mccDnCUAASHii.jpg" title="Nonfinite V3 Ultra, Bright White, New in Package!" id="forum_image_83351274"><img src="https://pbs.twimg.com/media/A7mccDnCUAASHii.jpg" /></a></p><p>Since this is new and in the packaging, I&#039;m asking close to the new price, but I&#039;m throwing in the shipping, so you do end up saving time, money, and trouble. PM me with your PayPal, send $15, and this jets its way to you USPS first class! <img src="https://chipmusic.org/forums/img/smilies/big_smile.png" width="15" height="15" alt="big_smile" /></p><p><strong>3.5mm (1/8&quot;) Pro-Sound Game Boy Color, Lime Green: $50</strong></p><p>This Game Boy Color has a pre-pot pro-sound modification, meaning that the line level output bypasses the volume potentiometer entirely; ergo it does not color the sound and is always at full output going into your mixer or amplifier. The TRS jack is installed behind the speaker and below the battery case, and is barely noticeable in normal use. The Game Boy was acquired used and has some normal cosmetic wear, but is in perfect working order.</p><p>Game Boy Colors have more powerful processors and can run some software, like Carillon tracker &amp; LSDj, better than DMGs and Game Boy Pockets. They also have some of the best battery life of the Game Boy family. It&#039;s worth having at least one around just to experiment with, or as your carrying-around Game Boy. <img src="https://chipmusic.org/forums/img/smilies/wink.png" width="15" height="15" alt="wink" /></p><p><a class="postimg" href="https://pbs.twimg.com/media/A4oTq-UCQAEUFfW.jpg" title="3.5mm Pro-Sound Game Boy Color, Lime Green" id="forum_image_32057029"><img src="https://pbs.twimg.com/media/A4oTq-UCQAEUFfW.jpg" /></a></p><p>I actually have two of these with the same mod in the same color, but one is missing the battery cover, and I wanted to replace it before I sold it.</p><p><strong>NYKO Shock &#039;N Rock for Game Boy Color: $10</strong> or best offer</p><p>I got this as part of a lot when I bought some stuff on craigslist. It&#039;s a combination battery pack and amplified stereo speaker set for Game Boy Color. The battery still holds a charge. It also has an unusual feature where it will rumble along with the music, which will be fantastic when they finally finish porting REZ to Game Boy. In the mean time, you can turn it off if you want. <img src="https://chipmusic.org/forums/img/smilies/wink.png" width="15" height="15" alt="wink" /></p><p><a class="postimg" href="http://i.ebayimg.com/00/s/NTMzWDgwMA==/$(KGrHqR,!p!E-1L86h)cBP47zcB-7!~~60_12.JPG" title="NYKO Shock &amp;#039;N Rock for Game Boy Color" id="forum_image_10543922"><img src="http://i.ebayimg.com/00/s/NTMzWDgwMA==/$(KGrHqR,!p!E-1L86h)cBP47zcB-7!~~60_12.JPG" /></a></p><p>I just noticed part of the battery clip has broken out of this, but the way it connects to the Game Boy holds it securely onto the device in normal operation. Weird.</p><p><strong><span class="bbu">Coming Soon!</span></strong><br /></p><div class="spoilerbox" id="spoiler4811901"><h3 onclick="$('#spoilerbox4811901').css('display','block');$('#spoiler4811901').css('display','none')">&#8250; Show Spoiler</h3></div><div class="spoilerbox" id="spoilerbox4811901" style="display:none"><h3 onclick="$('#spoilerbox4811901').css('display','none');$('#spoiler4811901').css('display','block')">&#8249; Hide Spoiler</h3><p>I&#039;m working on a batch of Pro-Sound Super Game Boys with some extra features. At least one of these is going to end up here when I finalize the spec and build them.</p></div><p><strong><span class="bbu">Sought For Trade</span></strong></p><p>Here&#039;s a list of things I&#039;m specifically looking for as trade items. I&#039;m open to other trades, but these are things I am definitely interested in:</p><ul><li><p>Nintendo DS / DSlite</p></li><li><p>GBA SP Headphone Adapters (Who isn&#039;t looking for these?)</p></li><li><p>Recording equipment: Mixer, 8 to 12 channel; Condensor Mic; 4 track/8 track cassette tape recorder.</p></li><li><p>Miscellaneous DMG parts.</p></li><li><p>Commodore Stuff</p></li></ul>]]></description>
