MIDIbox SID Synthesizer V2 features
One Core module and one stereo SID module, fully integrated on one PCB with power supply.
Five “BankStick” slots, so you can store 4 banks of 128 patches, plus 128 “Ensembles” (engine and patch configurations)
Jumpers to configure the power supply, allowing a regulated 12V input to power 6581, or unregulated AC/DC input to power 8580/6582A.

I’m sure its posting will inspire a shitstorm, but the pixels are cute, and the music is a earworm. Plus anyone that mentions Draculas in the Brad Neely plural is ok in my book.
