OK, here is the cost breakdown for LS 3.0
Basic LS 3.0 - no SPO256-AL2, no MP3, no RTC, no LambdaDrum, no Epson board:
- PCB: 8 $
- CPLD: 8 $
- ATmega 644 20pu: 8 $
- other parts: 12 $
- shipping from the US to Europe: 14 $
Sum: 50 $.
To this, you can add the following options:
- click Epson speech board: 39 $
(this is not really an option, it is required, but you might already own one) - SPO256-AL2 (I only have ~ 5 of these): 35 $
for authentic SSA1 and DKtronics modes (not emulated) - 128 KB EEPROM: 5 $
(required for LambdaDrum - the 4 Channel 16 khz 8Bit PCM Sample Player / Drum Computer) - RTC option: 6 $
- MP3 option: 4 $
So, a "deluxe LS 3.0 with everything" (shown in the pictures) will cost you
50 + 39 + 35 + 5 + 6 + 4 = 139 $.
If someone finds cheaper options for, for example, SPO256-AL2, let me know. The cheapest I found was 35 $ (including shipping).
If you already own a SPO256-AL2 and the click Epson speech board, then it is not too expensive - 65 $.
