By luck I came across this 5 octave keyboard for c64.
This music guy up the street got it by someone which had found it in a container or something...
It apparently will give more polyphony(8!!!!) and have a module device with xtra module input (for sounds?).
The case tels it's also MIDI compatible.
I've tried to search here at Lemon, and browsed a few pages that have hardware but with no luck.
Do some of you have information on this or know where to start looking ?

Google is your friend! As for Software, there was a separate sequencer for it, but it's as rare as Hen's teeth.MogBog wrote:It is ....Chris Abbott wrote:

In a nutshell, it's an FM chip in a box, not an expansion for the SID. It comes with a player/jukebox software, and it's only MIDI expandable with a cartridge (I think it was compatible with the Datel one).
A nice novelty, but not very usable.

I know something called "Moog Song Producer". Is a midi interface for C64 http://www.instruction-manuals.co.uk/im ... 2/moog.jpg
"Info: The Moog Song Producer has four MIDI Outs (four serial ICs, not one),
one in, one through, as well as 8 pulse'd drum-trigger outputs, two pedal
inputs, and a clock loop. Its a pretty complete piece of equipment. My
packages came new in box, with schematic, design concept, and working
test/util software (the sequencer is horrible.
