Guest SecondaryCell Posted February 16, 2010 Report Share Posted February 16, 2010 That is awesome. I have a c64 in a box out in my garage (plus an Atari ST) - gives me ideas...

Guest SecondaryCell Posted February 16, 2010 Report Share Posted February 16, 2010 OK - I visited the site that the article is from... and had no idea about the stuff available for the c64. I'm getting this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1r-yMTLVW1U MSSIAH is short for MIDI SID Software Integrated Applications and Hardware and means that the cartridge contains both software and hardware to midify the C64. Since they are integrated you won't need hard-to-get MIDI peripherals to hook it up to your synthesizer or sequencer. Just plug in a MIDI cable and off you go! Price: 49.95 EUR (MIDI cable is not included) http://www.8bitventures.com/mssiah/ Thanks to the OP!

Guest SecondaryCell Posted February 16, 2010 Report Share Posted February 16, 2010 ieafs said: yeah i've got a commodore modified for mssiah too... but just a regular c64 modded to have pots and an inbuilt LCD screen. What's the situation with LCD screens for the C64? If I remember correctly the only video port is a composite RCA out. Any recommendations? Also, what is the mod for pots?

Guest Glass Plate Posted February 21, 2010 Report Share Posted February 21, 2010 (edited) ok Kaini, but there have been sequencers for c64 for ever, and one with a Piano Roll isn't that big of a difference from other tracker interfaces, and I really don't see that as ground breaking, or changing the capabilities of a c64 what so ever, the same goes for most other UI mods. The stuff I find most impressive are some of the recent demos where they've made c64 software that can read mp3 files and play them through SID etc. Edited February 21, 2010 by Glass Plate Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/53462-ultimate-c64-mod/#findComment-1249402 Share on other sites More sharing options...
