carlsson Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 Based on the sold items the past two months, the LAPC card is right on spot on market value. The previous ones were sold for $420 and $450, this one listed at $450 as well. I suppose it mainly caters to dedicated sound card collectors.

I probably should have posted it, but there's also a General Midi daughter board (Roland SCB-7) that's on there too for a couple hundred. I have the daughter board just in a box (can't bring myself to part with it), but I do have the SCC-1, which in my opinion... for gamers, is probably the most sought after. I've had it for literally 2 decades now... but it does everything. For those older DOS and early Windows games... there's just no contest with the Roland. General Midi really puts even the oldest / crappiest games into a whole other category. Cool to see my name written that many times Haha! Yeah, I actually wonder where the Roland corporation is from? Maybe it's European. I see you're from Holland, my father's Dutch. Growing up, I used to visit Holland once every 2 years for a couple of weeks at a time. Awesome country.
