Some clever stuff on there, although I wonder why there is so much space between the faders on those MIDI controller desks?

If you have a look in the hardware section on the like page, one of the sites there gives some detail on connecting an older Yamaha daughterboaed for the older soundblaster cards to the atari midi ports.

In fact the same design can be used on any of the daughterboaeds of the time as they all used the se connector.

Adapt a Yamaha DB50XG soundcard to your Falcon/ST/TT/whatever.
