A Chiptune Modular Synthesizer Gig Box

Brendan Becker has a good head for audio synthesizer chips.  And he’s been working on something just for that.  Basically, it’s a microcontroller board with more than enough space to interface with most common sound synthesizer chips from vintage home computers and game systems, among other things, and the smarts to make it more convenient to use with his modern multi-chip tracker software.  He had 4 different sound IC’s hooked in together, controlled from the same machine (including an MOS 6581 SID).  I really want to see what becomes of his project, because I’ve got an SAA-1099 that I’d like to put to work.   According to Brendan, that would be plenty possible with what he’s working on...

“What happens when your job is to write music on pre-1990s computers and consoles, and things aren’t hard enough as it is? Make them harder, of course, by building your own synthesizer and music software to control it! Inverse Phase will be showing off his in-progress chiptune gig box, which will allow him to produce authentic sound from eight (or more) systems simultaneously, all without having to carry each of the systems to shows and the like. Also available will be demos of various hacked software that enable chiptune creation on modern PCs, which can then be easily ported to retro hardware.”
