FPGA Chiptune/MIDI Synth - 10 Minutes of Action

Well here's a quickie video of the progress on my user interface on this synthesizer. In this video, I demo SID, Pokey (SAP/ atari 8 bit), then NSF (nintendo/famicom) playback, along with some of the other misc. functions it does at the current time. I will try to capture more of the visualizations another time in their own little segments, along with more SID filter action (sorry for not having too much of the SID filter this time).

The video was recorded using a B&W security camera because it has an adjustable focus, and I can get it within 3 inches of the LCD to get the clearest image.

Could I do this with the Altera DE1 Cyclone II board?

What FPGA did you use, and how can I get a good low priced kit? I wanted to get this one: CYCLONE II STARTER KIT EP2C20N is it a good idea?
