Hello Surfin' Bird Sur> There is a person in St. Petersburg who can easily resume the “frozen” Sur> production, if there are orders!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sur> I just don’t know about the price. Exactly - more than 1000 rubles. Time has proven that Kostya Verbov will definitely not do this.

Hello new art new> Time has proven that Kostya Verbov will definitely not do this. Slava, you can take the wiring files from him, you don’t want to do the wiring yourself again, in principle, you can order boards in Moscow.. Especially for me Konan gave me a whole bunch of 572PA1 :)

Hello, CHRV да! =(((((((((

From Surfin' Bird To All 15 January 2006

Hello, CHRV In general, no one needs... What needed to be proven...

From Konstantin Zhukov To All 15 January 2006

Hello Surfin' Bird I want General Sound!!!

From Slavik Tretiak To All 15 January 2006

Hello Surfin' Bird ?? So it seems like everyone who needs it already has the schematics?? or am I dumb?

From Surfin' Bird To All 15 January 2006

Hello, CHRV I don't know him. Who is this? We probably need to talk to Vega. Although, whatever it is, I don’t think whoever owns the rights will allow make the diagrams freely available...

From Surfin' Bird To All 15 January 2006

Hello, Jukov Juk> I want General Sound!!! Everyone wants... No one wants to buy :(

From Vlad Sotnikov To All 30 January 2006

Hello Mike I decided to add my word :-) As for Kostya Verbov and GS: in due time he bought the rights to its production from Dangerous specifically for to make and sell them. At first they were successfully bought from him, and then they stopped ordering (this was a period when used GSs were easily available at 500 rub.). Nowadays it’s almost impossible to get used ones. In general, when I reported Verbov that there are people who want to buy boards - he even, it seemed to me, got excited about the idea of ​​resuming their production (which was not at all for him characteristic). So if there are orders, GS will be available. One of these days I’ll find out their cost and other useful information. As for laying out the diagram/wiring, etc. - as far as I know Verbov, he won’t post anything. Just because what kind of person is this :smile:

From Kirill Frolov To All 30 January 2006

Hello, CHRV CHR> Well, don’t distribute it, but open it. He probably lost it himself :). CHR> Ask if there is an opportunity why he doesn’t want to open this case? CHR> Just interesting to be honest! Brain[beep]stvo in the style of Hemo. You probably understand. There is a lot of talk about how much money it costs. About the fact that someone owes someone something, has a right, etc. He was told long ago that nothing prevents him from releasing general sounds by the piece at the price at which it will be pay off (>=$100) and there is a certain minimum demand. Who wants and maybe he’ll buy it. Apparently he doesn’t want to do this in this form. In order for any smart people to understand pricing, I advise understand how much, for example, your working day costs. How much they are needed to assemble and set up the only GS once every six months. The price of all sorts of boards and parts can be ignored - pennies. Why not post it for free? From a person to some questions can be heard - “I know, but I won’t tell you.” A consequence of brainwashing by the Nemo ideology, no less. Whoever read the “open letters” remembers, money is money, it’s worth so much money... Any question costs money. Nemo is a path to nowhere, to a dead end... Well, then there’s another question. Would you post it for free? If you don't estimate, how much does it cost? You've been fussing over itGS is damned, some lamers stole it (circuit/firmware), and now they are still whining that they say give me the wiring. In this situation and I wouldn't post it. Regardless of money. To spite them. And finally, a final question: why, for example, SMT posted Unreal Speccy for free? It costs two orders of magnitude more than General Sound! Why was AY Emul released? Time was wasted on him an order of magnitude more than GS. From a practical standpoint, GS has no raison d'être. It’s long overdue to be replaced with something like a fast ARM + Z80 simulator. The question mainly depends only on the software.

Hello fk0 fk0> From a practical standpoint, GS has no raison d'être. fk0> It’s long overdue to change it to something like a fast ARM + Z80 simulator. fk0> The question mainly depends only on the software. I’ve also talked about this many times, but first of all, the development of such a thing really WORTH MONEY (not a lot but decent) ;) . Secondly, write software For such things, not everyone can.

Hello Vega Veg> As for laying out the diagram/wiring, etc. - how much I Veg> I know Verbov, he won’t post anything. Just because he's like this Veg> person :smile: Well, let's just say Spectrum doesn't care, it just wants money for it :), Well, we won’t give you money - we don’t have it. I can send the circuit diagram and firmware to anyone (the firmware seems even source). Email me. There is no wiring.

From Kirill Frolov To All 30 January 2006

Hello Vega Veg> In general, when I told Verbov that there were people willing to purchase boards Veg> - he even, it seemed to me, got excited about the idea of ​​renewing them Veg> production (which is generally not typical for it). So if available Veg> GS orders will be available. One of these days I will clarify their cost and Veg> They won't. I think so. Otherwise they would have been here a long time ago. I have reasons for this count.

Regarding posting Veg> circuits/wirings, etc. - as far as I know Verbov, nothing He will not post Veg>. Just because he’s such a person :smile: There are ALREADY orders, not the first day since they discussed it, but Verbov is nowhere to be seen... Apparently There won't be any GS. All hope is for JTN.

From Aleksey Naboka To All 9 March 2006

Hello Lounge Lizard Lou> There is nothing “antique-rare” in the diagram that is on http://zx.da.ru Lou> seems to be missing. Or are you talking about 572PA1? And what is WEAK to assemble on resistors or resistor assemblies???

From Mike To All 6 April 2006

Hello Orionsoft Ori> today, after many years of searching, I acquired the subject Ori> classic look, without memory expansion board. Ori> Hurray! Where did you get it like that? Well, congratulations then :) :v2_clapp:

Hello Mike Yesterday I listened to Ronin's tracks on my GS, listened and cried. Out of happiness. :v2_happy: :v2_yahoo: The GS has an amazing sound, unlike anything else. :v2_thumb:
