[comp.sys.cbm] Stereoplayer10.3 IC addr

	What address does the Stereoplayer10.3 use for the 2nd sid IC
 (the one on the milton ftp site).  I have a second sid chip installed
and it seems to ignore it at DE00H.   The stereo editor from COMPUTE plays
with no problem on all six voices and allows a selection between 
DE00H and DF00H.  I'm suspicious that the 10.3 player uses DF00H.  The
2nd sid chip modification says to connect for DE00H.  Is there an 
incompatibility here or am I missing something??

I'm not 100% sure on this, but I *believe* that you can tell the
stereoplayer where the second SID is located... when it boots, look
for a configure option on the first menu, and play around with it. 
If this doesn't help, let me know, and I will find out the specifics 
for you.  Mark Dickenson is a good friend and cohort of mine.

THANKS!

If only I would read the DOCS.  It was right there on the second screen!
Oops.  I guess the player is so easy to use that I didn't think I needed
documentation.  Thanks to those who helped.

BTW.  In the documentation I noticed that the circuit matches the one on my
C64 schematic.  The schematic on the C128 is a little different, so if you
are modifying a C128, you might want to match the circuit currently in the
computer so the the 2 sids give balanced outputs ( I think it had a couple
of extra capacitors).  

Also, instead of mounting a 2nd RCA plug on the back of your machine you can
tie the output to pin 7 of the video DIN jack.  This requires you to make a 
new video cable, but I just thought you might want to know of this alternative.
