recently the topic of a lengthy thread. This is labelled
"Mockingboard" from Sweet Microsystems, and dated 1983.
Unfortunately, it appears to be missing its resident EPROM, so I doubt
it's much more than a pair of 6522's and a pair of ay3-8913's, plus a
couple of LM386 audio amp's.
Does anyone know anything specific about this board? What's its claim
to fame?
Has anybody got either the EPROM contents, manuals, software, or a
desire for this board?
It's a multiple voice sound card for the Apple ][. Some software
supported it, most significantly the Ultima series (Ultima II or III and
onwards).
I think it sported 3 voices, though there may have been more.
I have at least one of these. I believe I have the software...somewhere.
