This is amazing. Everything down to the jewel cases is perfect.
Finally. I can listen to Bloody Tears as it was meant to be listened to!
As the name implies, the MIDI Blaster plays MIDI file albums from floppy disks. About 100 SoundFonts come preloaded on the device and they can be changed on the fly. For those unfamiliar with SoundFonts, they contain recordings of instruments and other sounds that are played as instructed by a MIDI file. So by changing the SoundFont, the entire feel of a song can be altered.
