Notes

It's been tested on a old ESS 688 audiodrive sound card.

REV B and REV A is in gergber/old stable.7z

REV C IS BASICALLY REV B,their schematic is the same.

REV A = vs1053-waveblaster

REV C = vs1053-waveblaster-se

Pictures

Here's a view of it been fully assembled and not been. (It says REV C, but it's actually REV B).

*Look,it is working on my soundcard.

*a. It is your choice to use crystal or oscillator.

*b. Both vs8053 and vs1053 can be used. There're no diffience in the MIDI implementation. Just buy the cheapest one.

*All values are printed on the silkscreen.

What's next?

1.Fully SMT-ized?(Maybe REV D?)

2.Get a proper logo?(Maybe REV D?)

3.Write a bom list?(How about right now!)
