I have an Atari 2600 cart called SoundX that gives control over the
internal 2600 sound using the joysticks.

I also have a similar cart for the Atari Lynx, it's called SFX.

These are both DIY type carts.

They provide basic control over two voices with on/off for both voices, and
control over a couple of different sound parameters.


Are there sound carts available for any other games consoles?
