    Need a close replacement for a sound logic pc2 Breakout board

    I need a close or similar replacement for a sound logic pc2 breakout board and dont seem to be having much luck in finding either a direct replacement or something real similar to it, could someone point me in the right direction?

    Thanks

    Why does it have to be close to the Soundlogic board? That was a fairly standard breakout board; a currently-produced board won't be much different. If you're looking for something that runs from a parallel port, you'll be stuck with old and obsolete equipment. You'd do better to get a USB or ethernet adapter and bypass the parallel port altogether. Warp9 (makers of the Smoothstepper adapters) has a list of BOBs on their site: https://warp9td.com/index.php/bob-vendors

    Because i dont want to reinvent the wheel and have to get in way over my head by trying to reconfigure the machine and change a bunch of settings that i don't understand, i just want the machine to be back up and running

    There's only so many pins on a parallel connection.
    I'd have thought most DB25 connector boards would suffice.

    Most db25 breakout boards dont seem to be powered by 115v ac like the sound logic board is and thats more or less along the lines of what I'm looking for
