Many requests for Melody-Z2
We thank the users for the big interest in Melody-Z2, and the companies Rüdiger
Gruner Bürotechnik and DCE for the quick, uncomplicated revival:
There was only a minimum number of Melody-Z2 sitting on the shelves half
assembled. These cards were gone some hours after the announcement. This was unsatisfactory
for Katodev. The cooperation of Katodev, Gruner and DCE now makes it possible to initiate
a small production run. Special thanks goes to DCE. Save the expansion port, the card is
identical to the one offered until one year ago.
If your order was declined, ignore it for the time being. sales@katodev.de
should contact you explaining the additional availability. After this, however, Melody-Z2
is done for sure. The MPEG1-DSP used (layer 1+2) is no longer available. Melody1200Plus
(only this option, because of the same DSP being used) is also running out of production.
We want to warn, however, not to see Melody-Z2 as a replacement for the
Melody1200-series. Melody-Z2 was intended as Paula replacement (plus MP2 hardware interesting
back then). Melody1200 is much better from both a functional and quality point of view.
We recommend preferring the Unity+Melody1200xxx solution, in the very least compare them.

More information can be ordered from sales@katodev.de.
