Prophet64 back in stock
« on: September 26, 2006, 07:11:14 AM »
The Prophet64 carts are back in stock on www.prophet64.com . You can also order SID2SIDs, which let you use two SID chips in your C64 to get more channels.

I didn't create it as a link actually, it did that automatically. Including the trailing "." must be a bug in the forum.

I had a C64 for a while about 5 years ago. It was a C64-C (wedge) with a 1541 drive. I rememver buying the 1541 because the postage cost me more than the cost of the drive itself :lol:

That C64 is long dead. I always wanted to use the SID for making music as I love those old sounds, but I found it so confusing. When I read about the Prophet64 I immediately headed to eBay and found a mint C64-C in its packaging :-) I ordered my Prophet64 this morning.

I actually prefer the older style "breadbox" C64, but couldn't find one anywhere. Also, the C64-C aparrently is more likely to contain the 8580 SID, which I have been told is better for the 303 bassline synth in Prophet64.

@spihunter
AFAIK the C128 uses the same SID chip as the C64, so the Prophet64 should work ok. You may want to confirm with the P64 developers though. I have ordered a P64 card and a SID2SID, and I received order confirmation, so they are taking orders.

Yes I have seen the HardSID. I don't have a PC to put one in, and don't want one :-) I love the thought of using an 8-bit computer and getting it all in sync with my MacBook running Reason :-)
