Post by: Poliander on 17:25, 20 December 17
Discovered a nice thing recently:

Hope we'll get someday our beloved CPCs to comply to Adlib standard, too :-) I almost can hear the Monkey Island soundtrack coming out of my CPC... *ducks*

Look at the pinout, the CPC doesn't provide /WR, so forget it.

I did not meant to connect this thing to a CPC, that's why I posted to "other retro" ;-)

Yeah, Serdaco stuff is pretty neat. It's always cool to see people active on the hardware front, finding new ways to do stuff, or refining the old ways. I have the Waveblaster S2 and a CVX4 from him, and they are great devices, professionally made.

I read he was planning to make an OPL3 too in the future, once these are gone. It really gives old laptops a new life.

Nevertheless it *would* have been nice to be able to connect it.  :)

I wonder if this works on an Amiga with the right driver :-/

Pretty much, I know for sure that MT-32 works so why not this.
