Special thanks to Serge!
Waveblaster compatible synth module based on the SAM2695 chip.
Excellent for gaming, music production, sound experiments.
Combines wavetable and FM synth sound for a high end retro sound.
64-voice polyphony (without effects)
38-voice polyphony + effects
High quality, compact size
CleanWave soundset
General MIDI compatible effects
4-band stereo equalizer
Low power consumption, only 5V supply required (no +/- 12V)
Low noise audio output
Can be used on Waveblaster compatible soundcards
Can be used for electronics projects, such as arduino, raspberry pi, midibox,...
Very small size, ideal for building into projects : 24mm x 34mm
This board is intended for testing, education, development, and usage in custom projects and prototypes.
Cheap but brilliant replacement for the more and more becoming less available GM-daughterboards like famous Roland SCB-7 or Yamaha DB50XG.
Compatible with any soundcard that has a Waveblaster connector : SoundBlaster 16, Audician 32, ESS AudioDrive, Aureal Vortex 2 and many others.
Please note: There are some older soundcards with a Waveblaster compatible header but don‘t have an MPU401 interface. Instead there is only the SoundBlaster MIDI standard supported so the games that run with the S2 module are limited. You can use SoftMPU to emulate the MPU401 interface in this case.
Turn up the volume and enjoy this one :-)
With love
