Im going to build a spectacular new Z80 based computer. Features of this machine will include most of the same operating system as my previous mpf1d but with some additional features. I will be running the z80 cpu as fast as i reliably can so maybe 12 to 16 mhz which will be upto 4 or 5 times faster. Im going to add in a voltage controled filter (VCF) and a wave shaper, A low freq oscillator (LFO) and an envelope generator to the design so i can develop and run sound synthersizer applications. *

As in the previous design an an*louge to digital converter (ADC) and a digital to an*louge converter (DAC) will be added to allow sampling, processing and playback of audio signals but with much higher sampling rates than i could before. *

At the moment i am currently in the process of sourcing and buying parts for the project which is going to take some time. *

I now have about 99 percent of all the parts needed to build my new computer. *
