OPL4 Shockwave 2 - New product

Hello Tecnobyters!

Let´s talk about the new OPL4 SHOCKWAVE 2.

This new product comes with the same quality as always, but we have to talk about some differences and new features:



SOLD OUT!

1. Design

The OPL4 SHOCKWAVE 2 is smaller than your predecessor and fit in a small cartridge case.

2. Output

As the new size will not accept the RCA connectors, now we have a P2 stereo output.

3. More Output

The OPL4 sound is mixed with the internal MSX sound. In others words, you can listen the OPL4 SHOCKAWAVE 2 sound throug the MSX sound output (mono).

4. More Memory

The OPL4 SHOCKWAVE 2 have twice capacity of RAM of the original OPL4 (2MB against 1MB).


Well.. let´s talk about the new batch:

1. We will post here on the site the list of buyers in the order in which we are receiving payments. So everyone can follow the progress. This update can take up to 48 hours to complete; Check the list in the end of this post!

2. If we can not reach the minimum quantity of 20 units, we will cancel the project and return the payments;

3. We will only begin to buy the parts and send the plate for manufacturing when that number is reached;

4. Between the purchase of parts, manufacturing and later assembly, we can have from 2 to 3 months. It all depends on customs and our couriers. We will keep everyone informed;

That said ... let's go to values:

1. Each OPL4 Shockwave 2 cartridge: US $ 140.00
2. Shipping to anywhere in the world: $ 38.00 (up to three units we can ship with this amount - above that, send us an email)

Weekly Report - 09 / 11 / 2017

Hello Tecnobyters!

The AppleII Classic IDE and MSX Ethernet are already in the oven. Only 10 Classic and 3 Ethernet units remain.

Another batch that is also in the oven is the CPC V9990 Powergraph. We reached the minimum number a few days ago. We decide to make some units more, so... we have some units left!

And ... the MSX V9990 Powergraph Light boards arrived and we're assemblying. Until the end of the month we have already started sending.

Greetings,

What? Amstrad CPC running with V9990 Powergraph? How, when, where?

Hello Tecnobyters!

The challenge was accepted and the result is here.

We made a V9990 Powergraph prototype (based on V9990 Powergraph Light) to be used with an Amstrad CPC computer.

We also made this little demo to show some capabilities of this hardware.

We hope you enjoy it.

Slot Expander - News

Hello Tecnobyters!

In fact, a Slot Expander isn't a big deal when we think merely in the project... but, when you see all things involved... Wow! It is a huge project!

Two boards to assembly and test, flat cable to mount, power supply, buttons and the worst of all... the case!

To acomplish with we want, we had to make our own tools to make the cabinet! We made the desing, send to a company to make the laser cut, but in the end, all job was make on our labs (sometimes in home too!)... the curves, the template to the curves... and many others...
Why? The company that make the laser cuts, don't garantee to us all curves will be equals...

What?! No way... let's do it!

It was harder than we think, but finally we are start to see the light at the end of tunnel...

We expeted to start the shipping in firsts days of july.

Thank you all for the patience!

We are very happy with the final result! Some pictures for you...
