Here's how it works - there is a lot of soldering to do! Interface --------- First, stack the two SID chips together, leaving as much space as possible between them. On the second SID chip, bend out pins 1-4, pin 8, pins 23 and 24, and pin 27. Do not connect these pins to any point on the first SID chip. Solder all other pins of the second SID to corresponding pins on the first SID. On pins 1-4, attach two filter capacitors ("caps"). One to pins 1 and 2, the other to 3 and 4. If your 128-DCR has been modified to accept a 6581 SID, these will be 470 pF caps. If not, you should use an 8580 instead (of course), and use a pair of 22000 pF caps. Leave pins 23 and 24 alone, thier function is of no use in a Stereo-SID setup anyway. Addressing ---------- Connect pin 8 to one of the following on chip U3 (a 74LS138): Pin 12: $D700 Pin 9: $DE00 Pin 7: $DF00 I recommend using $D700, as the other two addresses are often used by other devices such as your REU and Swiftlink cartridges. Audio Output ------------ On pin 27, the last pin left to connect on the second SID, you will find the audio output. You'll need to hang a small preamp circuit off of this pin, routing the output of that pre-amp to the back of the computer as the final output. It consists of a 2SC1815 transistor, four resistors and four capcitors. It is the small block of circuits found next to the 6581, connected to pins 14 and 27 of the SID, in the C64 and C128 schematic diagrams, which can be found in the back of your Commodore 64 and 128 Programmer's Reference Guides. If you don't have the schematics available, you should be able to find them on ftp.funet.fi. You will need to use a machine with high-end graphics capabilities to download and print the schematics.
