Includes

  • MIDIbox Core V3
  • MIDIbox SID V2
  • 2x24 LCD (no backlight to safe power from 7805)
  • 9 buttons, 1 rotary encoder
  • MIDI IN and OUT

  • bank stick connector

Thanks :slight_smile:

The box is available in different colors, I got mine from Reichelt (“EUROBOX BL”) and a spare one from Conrad (523117) - just for the case I break anything during the whole drilling and cutting. Other shops may have it too, there seem to be nothing special with it.

ciao
