Pico-mac with audio has been published
https://github.com/retrotheory/pico-mac
This is for Pico 2, not tested on Pico 1.
Includes PWM or DAC based audio specify at build time. Its the same DAC thats used by #bluescsI cd audio.
Includes work on the submodule
https://github.com/retrotheory/umac ,updated for 464K support and patched audio addressing.
@arroz @_the_cloud @cdfinder @Cdespinosa @onegeekarmy You got a floppy to work!?🙌🥳 I just found that old dirty floppies may cause destruction of others - seems cleaning between each on might be a good policy.
#BlueSCSI is magical! It took me a while to understand the boot process. Finally found the preinstalled images. It's fun how I was able to plug into the back of a zip drive. I'm back in the world of system 6 before Multifinder😱 - I could run 7 but some files are too old to open there.
Finally got an old Mac SE booted with #BlueSCSI into 7.5.3 using a pre-installed image! ... With Extensions off🤨
It's “fun" to remember that SCSI is NOT plug & play.
Once in a while I get a floppy disk or a Zip disk to actually work. Some stuff is too old to work so I have to go back to 6.0.8 before Multifinder 😲😵
BlueSCSI and BlueSCSI Ultra Wide got me feeling anything but blue. Funny how that works. 😏🤔
WLAN driver: DaynaPORT 1.5
Robert Smith's driver uses the WLAN emulation available in the SD-based SCSI 'drives' ZuluSCSI and BlueSCSI to connect any Amiga with a SCSI host to the network. Changes in version 1.5:
- Open multiple times
- Timer crash on exit (CheckIO check fix)
- 16bit read/write calls
- Aggressive mode to reduce wait times
Have you heard about BlueSCSI Ultra? It's the SCSI device emulator to have for your more modern vintage machines.
Faster performance, works in more machines, audio CD abilities and more.

Finally, the #MiSCUSI is released!
https://codeberg.org/hkzlab/MiSCUSI_AppleII
For the newcomers, it's a rebuild of the Apple II #SCSI card, made with SMD components.
Tested it on my #Delta Apple //e clone with a #BlueSCSI
Thanks to #PCBWay for sponsoring this,and thanks to @DosFox for testing the PLD dumps on his card!
As usual, if you like my projects and have some credits to spare, you can throw me a few via Ko-Fi. It's not strictly necessary, but all go towards the next projects (instead of using what's left after I have fed and medicated the cat colony I inherited...).
