DO NOT INSTALL ALL headers and IC sockets or output drivers if you only want 2 SID chips - you have to install and buy less parts | you only need 2 SID chips and one preprogramed PIC chip. more SIDs. can be played on a different MIDI channel - but there's no real Polyphonic playing on one midi channel. (correct me if I´m wrong) | everything inside the blue marking isn't needed when you only want a 2 SID chip version. also the headers which are blue marked.

| ID:output | ABSOLUTLY important | the outputs are Stereo per jack !! if you only install 2 SIDs - you can improve the jacks - install 2 MONO Jacks at the rear panel and connect each on the (Voice 1) stereo solder holes - other wise you need a adapter from stereo to 2x mono cables (insert cable) | todo: improve the rear panel to 2 or 4 MONO jacks (9.5mm holes) move the holes more to top to get enough space between PCb and the jacks. remove the unused holes from the panel files |
Panel Files:
This one has all artwork as objects in FPD, with two HPGL engravings for the Osc and LFO waveforms. You can change individual text labels if you want:
This one is the same as the one above, but pen 1 is used for all text, control group lines and waveform lines, i.e. - 1=text & control group lines & waveform lines, 2=arrow labels, 3=section dividing lines. You can then change the colour and/or thickness of each type of artwork.
This one has all artwork as a single HPGL engraving object
