Wow. That’s a really cool sounding thing — all done with the Arduino CPU. Yep, once we get an Arduino mapped in, all kinds of things are possible :)

It would be cool if the mapping mechanism was programmable so it could appear at different addresses. Want it to be an RS232 pack?Want it to appear where the SPeech/Sound Pak was? Or Orch-90? That would be the ultimate in flexible.
