So, the rom chip that it comes on will fit right into the Piston expander?

Also, for those that care about such things, the SID waves were recorded from an early 6581 (manufactured in 1983) in my low-noise super deluxe midibox. The filters in SIDS of this vintage have a certain lo-fi juice to them that I prefer over the 8580's or even later revision 6581's. All filter modes (LP BP HP) are represented for each wave except noise, with 16 cutoff steps. This allows for filter modulations by sweeping through the yon banks. You also get one bank of 16 PW steps for the unfiltered pulse wave.

Indeed, the NES has a more restricted palette. For example, there are only 4 steps of pulse width (12.5%, 25%, 50%, and 75%), and no multimode filter like the SID.

That said, the NES only takes up 3 of the Hither banks, and there will be at least 21 unique NES waveforms. I'm experimenting with a few more, as well as the possibility of Gameboy.
