Some of the knobs are blank for future wiring mods. The ones I checked I listed on with tape. Octave changes, Volume knob, Filter on off switch, Filter cutoff. The cynthcart is the sound module on a card for the commodore sounds and can be played on the darker keys. The device works and was tested before listing however since this is a custom build some functionality may vary. It played sounds and sounds as I remember.

Functionality for the cynthcart I found is listed below.

cynthcart is a cartridge I developed for the Commodore 64 computer that turns it into a standalone analog synthesizer with MIDI support. The Commodore 64's SID is one of the most interesting 8-bit sound chips of all time, and I was unsatisfied with the available SID synthesizer software. Cynthcart supports the original Commodore 64 piano keyboard overlay (shown below), and MIDI interfaces by Datel, Passport, Sequential, and Kerberos. Cynthcart's key-command user interface allows it to be played and controlled without a monitor, making it especially suitable for live performance.

● 30 preset sound patches
