  1. On the home stretch with my Evo64 Blue Pearl. Just a handful of caps and pinheaders left before I can test it. The Chipquik flux I'm using is great stuff, but man it leaves a sticky mess. This thing is in serious need of a deep clean. #Commodore #retrocomputing #soldering #evo64

  2. The Evo64 Blue Pearl is getting there, half done or so. Soldering stuff on in random order here. #evo64 #Commodore #retrocomputing #soldering #random

  3. Big thanks to the #EVO64 team for hooking me up with the Multi Switch Module! 🙌 #C64

  4. That saturation and fat harmonics from Korg's Nutube is pretty rad 🔥🥵 #evo64 #nutube64

  5. Happy to report that I just ordered a #Mssiah cartridge to be able to use the #EVO64 in a MIDI/DAW setup. SID noise music experiments on the horizon! :D mssiah.com #C64 #Commodore64 #RetroComputing #VintageComputing #ChipTunes

  6. CW: Rant about other YouTubers (without names)

    Just watched the other YouTubers' videos about the #EVO64 board and... Why are most of them claiming you can build a 100% new C64 from it? Clickbait? We still don't have a replacement for every single MOS custom chip. Or am I missing something?

    Also, that one video that involves placing the VIC-II in the board backwards made me cringe slightly. (Especially the part blaming it on the EVO creators.) :blobpats:

  7. Whoa, this is next-level crazy. Check out this demonstration video of the NuTube64, a vacuum tube preamp mounted on the new Evo64 Commodore 64 motherboard. It's based on the Korg Nutube, which is a pretty amazing modern take on a triode tube. The way the retro community is inventing stuff nowadays makes it quite hard (and expensive!) to keep up with Commodore. #C64 #Evo64 #vacuumtubes
