Sounds awesome. Very interested.

YES! especially if the price is reasonable. the ability to put your own sounds in is better than any other ROMS.

                          a FLASH based SIMM for proteus 2000 systems
                          that acted like mulitple SIMMs at the same
                          time. Basically you could put this one SIMM in
                          one socket with the others empty and it could
                          look like you had SIMMs in all 4 sockets. I
                          got pretty far along the path of making it
                          (even getting some PCBs made) when I
                          discovered that I had the pin outs of the
                          microcontroller (that allowed you to program
                          the FLASH devices via a usb connection) wrong
                          and the at the boards were just scrap. I
                          posted a picture of the boards in the group. I
                          was annoyed at myself so I dropped the bundle.

                          could finish it off if there was sufficient
                          interest in the thing.

                          ROM SIMMs in you system that you choose. You
                          could reprogram it as you want. And in theory
                          (if we can decode the format of the contents -
                          shouldn't be too hard) you could author your
                          own ROM images and download them , then create
                          your own presets and hard code them onto the
                          device as well. It would be a bit of messing
                          about to achieve the results but if people are
                          prepared to put in the effort...
