Project SIDFX (formerly known as SIDFIXER)
Sorry for spamming you all, but regarding the DUAL SID hardware module SIDFX:
I mailed all PRE-ORDER contacts tuesday and I still miss a reply from 33% of you... please check your spam folder/email if there is any mail from sidfx-preorder@kick-ass.dk (16th december)
Thanks in advance.
There will be a registration site up shortly... so if you didnt pre-order/registrate already, you can also just mail me directly on the sidfx-preorder@kick-ass.dk mail address.
Cheers and merry X-mas to everyone! |

Quoting FranticI am very happy with my SIDFX and I am happy that you guys put all that effort into doing this. I can only recommend it to others and I have put myself up on the list for another unit, in case there would be a second batch at some point.
I didn't try it out yet (been busy with boring RL crap) and i bet it's just great :) I bought 2 units since i find dualsid solutions interesting... and i figured that waiting time between batches could most likely resemble those of the 1541U line of HW.
I most likely won't need two, but then i have the chance to save a SIDFX-less buddy at some point. |

so all old and unconfirmed pre-orders are now invalid and cancelled.
... so the final run is out...
Everyone on the waiting-list have now been sent a mail about updating their profile with unit types etc.
We serve them in the order they get filled out.
If you want to be in the next batch and grab one of the units before we are sold out, then hurry up, find your e-mail inbox and check for the mail. If it's not there, check spam. Search for "SIDFX".
Good luck to you all!
We look forward to sell to as many as possible, so as many as possible can be happy.
Note. we have put a small limit on the amount of units you can order, so more people will benefit from the remaining units. |

A note for those who are going to drill a hole through their C64 case to attach one of those switches: A 6mm drill is just fine. |

Quoting OswaldA note for those who are going to drill a hole through their C64 case: dont. But then I'm gonna have a bunch of wires with switches flopping around. Btw, it works great so far, thanks Lotus'n'Scarzix! |

You can always have the cable come out of the back through either the USER-port of cartridge port and make a dummy cartridge to hold the switches ;) |

@Lotus: Do the switches by any chance consist of two electrical switches each (left and right), each shorting a separate pulled-up signal to ground?
My idea is to control switch #2 with a pair of NPN transistors, and then build something that lets me have pushbuttons for resetting into an old-sid or a new-sid configuration, respectively. |

@LFT: Yes, the switches are SPDT and implemented just like youre describing. |

I ordered a keyman64 (and a MixSID :), I'm hoping it'll do the job without any external buttons. |

@Magervalp: Sounds cool! You can always drill a hole through the C64 case in any case, just for fun! :D |
