If you want to play Sonic, the RAD expansion unit or the 1541 Ultimate are probably your best (cheapest) options.

Thanks! I’ll give that a try and report back.

Added Motorola 68060 (full) to the list of items I can trade to.

I tried it. While i.e. the motor control and such were in synch, the 1530 didn’t actually seem to record anything on the tape while it was being played back from the Tapuino. I verified this with a normal recorder and there wasn’t anything audible on the tape.

One quiestion. My first Tapuino has the cassette port pass-through. Can I connect a regular 1530 to it and save to tape while the Tapuino plays the file?

This is not the final version, but getting there.

I don’t like using bare boards, so I thought I’d design an enclosure for the SMD Tapuino.

Okay, the order of sequence was the issue! You first need to press shift/run/stop and then select the tap. Now Rambo loads at first attempt. Thanks for your assistance, @sweetlilmre!

Yes, 2 Tapuinos, 2 SD cards and 2 C64s (breadbin and C). In testing, there’s one difference: I select the .tap and then press run/stop. I’ll try the other way round and report back. The SMD version shows the firmware, but for some reason I can’t see it on my self-built Tapuino screen. It’s...

Is it possible to make a logging version that would write the log file on the SD card? I could take the log in both cases.

I tried with two different, freshly formatted (with SD Formatter) cards. Still the same. Rambo will be found at 4 %, the screen goes black/blue at 10 % and ten it’s stripes until the playback ends If I do the stop/abort trick, Rambo will be found at 4 %, screen will go black/blue at 10 %, then...

I managed to update the firmware on my self-built Tapuino to 2.10. Unfortunately, at least Rambo is stuck in loading stripes as can be seen on the first picture. It’ll keep that way until the file is loaded and the game won’t start. If I do the stop/abort trick, Rambo’s load screen will appear...
