Hi,

I'm forwarding your question to the cbm-hackers mailing list, since this
system was discussed there 1-2 years ago.  I don't know the SFX Sound
Expander myself very well.

Best regards,

Hi There !

I came across a place on the www of you:

--  http://www.funet.fi/pub/cbm/schematics/cartridges/c64/sfx/index.html
--

....this through a big search on the web regarding the Commodore SFX
Sound Expander and specially the external keyboard. I'm trying to find
out if its possible to give the external keyboard a MIDI interface which
is useful on my pc. In other words: I want to use the external keyboard
on my Pc...  i'm sick of the c64 sounds. ;)

I've already found this site, needed for the construction:

Question:
Do you know how to get an output from the external keyboard which is
compatible with a midiconnecter configured like this:

[Image](At the peripheral)    [Image](At the cable)

Pin Name Description
1 n/c Not connected
2 GND Ground
3 n/c Not connected
4 CSRC Current Source
5 CSINK Current Sink

Well any help would be welcome!! I won't be lazy myself.. so no
obligations;)

Greetings from the Netherlands!!
