Details from the auction:
"It is a midi interface(4out / 1in / 1 thru) for the Commodore 64. It also has 8 trigger outs, clock in/out and foot switch control. It has a faux cartridge which is how it interfaces with the c64. It includes software an extensive manual and schematics."
Update via Gerald in the comments:
"I have one of these. Someone found a warehouse of them and put them up on ebay a couple years ago. You can tell this one is from this lot by the box's water damage. Although it is cool beyond cool, it doesn't work with any of the existing SID-midi software such as Triad's Midislave. I believe that it would be next to trivial for Midislave to be changed to work with the Moog, but alas the author seemed annoyed by the request. Since there are at least 20-30 of these midi interfaces in existence, it may in fact out number the Sequential Circuits, Datel, and Passport catridges.
The software is painful... not particularly graphical, with keyboard shortcuts galore. The best thing about the software is that it is an early example of open source... they encourage you to copy as often as you like."

Has anyone ever seen the "voltage" version of one of these? I've seen the ones with only trigger outs for sale.
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of old gear for old computers, I won the CMU-800R on Ebay that was posted here a few weeks back. I'm craving to get a listen and some tweakage on it but I need a working Apple II which isnt in my budget, the purchase tapped me out cashwise along with gifts for my 1 yr old and wife. Anyone with connections to an Apple II who is in or near the FL treasure coast area(Port St Lucie to be exact)can meet up with me for some tweakage on the CMU-800r, Beer and Barbecue on me!!
