Yamaha PSS-680

Another keyboard from my collection, it's not circuit bent, I tend to save the little berzerko kids ones for that.

Shows off a few of the features of this keyboard, and the pitch bend wheel (quite surprising on a plastic keyboard, what was essentially a rich kid's toy in the 80's).

hey can I hook this up to my computer, and how much should i pay.??? any help would be great thy

@30inventionman: Yeah, it's possible, the Midi 1X1 interface costs about $30 at places like Guitar Center and Kennally Keys, and it works with other things too.

From what I've found, if you can find an editor that works through MIDI (I know there's one for Windows that I found and can zip up and send if requested), you get increased capability (from what I've read, it has the capabilities of the Adlib's YM3182 chip).

The SysEx features actually do have four wave forms (Sine, Square-Sine, Sine Half, Square-Sine Half), and just about all features one could want from the OPL2.

Awesome, maybe I should hook it up to my 486 laptop and use it to control the patches.
