The Synthcart is a unique Atari 2600 cartridge that turns your 2600 into a pop music sensation, letting you play music using a pair of Atari's keyboard controllers and can also be controlled with an optional 2600 MIDI kit.

AtariAge sponsored a Synthcart Beat Programming Contest in early 2002 to allow people to create and contribute beats to be included with the Synthcart.

- Use two different sound types at a time, one assigned to each controller

- Intelligent voice management constantly re-assigns the two oscillators for maximum perceived polyphony

- Can arpeggiate both oscillators simultaneously
- Beat Box with many pre-programmed beats and fills
- Play two beats simultaneously to create custom beats

- User interface designed so that you can program and play the synth without a TV. This Atari has been modified with an audio out, you just need your Atari and an amp.

- Easter egg: secret light show mode that displays color patterns based on sound output. To activate, put the scale on "major" and put the left keypad on "pitfall" or "saw" and play the notes: 4 7 8 9 8 9.

Note: You can still use the Atari to play video games."
