So, I then replaced the SID with a newer version one, supplied it with appropriate power, and got it to work. However, before I applied the proper firmware there was all manner of nifty glitchyness going on. Listen to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nuxx.net\/files\/midibox_sid_first_-2.mp3\">this file right here for all the wonderful glitch<\/a>: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nuxx.net\/files\/midibox_sid_first_-2.mp3\">midibox_sid_first_-2.mp3<\/a><\/p>\n<p>That was made by triggering a MIDIbox SID-LC prototype (stuffed with a MOS 8580R5) with an x0xb0x set to &#8216;Random&#8217;, occasionally switching back to keyboard mode and hitting a few keys.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nintendo DS lite vs. Nintendo DS(Click for more DS lite photos&#8230;) Well, the photos of my Nintendo DS lite (photo gallery retired) are up.
