Re: [Ensoniq-VFX-SD] Internal extra soundmemory??

?????? Yes actually I started this about two years ago and still have it sitting on my work bench, only thing I couldn't decide was how to go about switching from bank to bank. 

Do I add a small switch that would end up having to pass through the top or back of the VFX/VXFSD/SD1? and how many people would want to deface their unit and cut a hole init?? I set this up on my bench unit and was able to select 6 additional banks plus the internals and still use the cart as well, it works I just have a few cosmetic details to work out...any thoughts?

Is there a chance that somebody somewhere have made an internally 
fitted cartridge board? I mean, instead of changing cartridges all the 
time, have anybody made an internal card-board with say 4 switchable 
cartridges for direct access to 256 sounds at once (or the like), as 
was done on Yamhas DX7 by I-can't-remember-who? It looks like it would 
be possible somehow (looking at the schematics anyway). And talking 
schematics: Is it possible getting/bying a schematic specifically for 
the 21 Voice board, or is the cartridge connector the same as on the 
VFX schematic?

Hope this makes sence :)
