BCI

Black Card Interface

The 2HP versions of BCI allow you to use cards made for the Tiptop Audio Z-DSP with the Black Hole DSP MK1, Mk2 or Pico DSP from Erica Synths.

• The MK1 version plugs to the expansion ROM connector and requires no modification.

• The MK2 version plugs to the ROM programming connector and requires desoldering one of the 3 original EEPROMS from the Black Hole DSP which might void your warranty.

• The Pico version plugs to the ROM programming connectors and requires desoldering the original EEPROM from the Pico DSP which might void your warranty.

• The DUAL FX version plugs to the ROM programming connectors and requires desoldering the original EEPROM from the Pico DSP which might void your warranty. Simply remove the screw on the back of DUAL FX and detach the PCBs in order to access this component. A single EEPROM is used for both sections.

• The DIP8 version is a derivative of the MK1 version, and is supposed to work with any Spin FV-1 based module, as long as it uses an EEPROM in a DIP8 socket.

Do not try to perform modifications on your modules if you have no experience with SMT soldering.

Only the person performing the modification can be held responsible in case of trouble.

If you're not about to perform the modification yourself, don't pay more than 15€ + VAT to have it installed.

The original EEPROM from the MK2 and Pico versions can be soldered back onto BCI, so these can still be accessed when no card is inserted. BCI would then automatically switch to the card's algorithms when detected.

Backpack (0HP) versions are also available for the Erica Synths modules.
