Subject: Q: SDS7 4 e-prom analog/digital card

From: hr.public@...

Anyone know if the four e-prom version of the analog/digital voice card for SDS7 where a genuine Simmons product? Or where they aftermarket add-on from 3.party?

I like the idea of these cards, but it seams we could make them more simple, or add more sounds using bigger e-proms and some simple address altering.

Surprisingly many useful 8-bit samples only need 8kB. That's a whopping 64 sounds on a single 512 e-prom that actually will fit in the standard socket. Or 16 long tom decays or cymbal samples.
