Thanks huey. I meant to post here that Bryan took the time to message me this update on June 25th: "I am currently out of all boards and won't be doing another run until I get some renovations done on my house. I do expect to offer new versions of both the UAV and AC at that time."

Thanks CrossBow, that's a big help. So you're saying even the basic UAV mod won't provide access to the 2 audio outputs channels? I've read on numerous posts that the 2600 was originally planned to have stereo speakers build right into the console (hence the speaker grills on older units) and that a number of original games were actually programmed in stereo. I can see how this wouldn't be of interest to a gamer, but as I mean to use my 2600 Jr primarily as a synthesizer module using the SynthCart, stereo audio outputs would come in very handy. Thanks again, CrossBow!

HI everyone, I posted this is in the "All About Audio Companioin" thread, but that thread doesn't get a lot of action, so I thought I'd post it up on here with more people to possibly answer this (as Bryan is obviously a busy guy). Hi Bryan (or anyone else who knows), I’m just curious why the audio companion only has one output? I have a SynthCart which I believe is capable of splitting two separate audio signals to left and right outputs, so that I can capture the two signals separately into my computer audio interface or one of my hardware samplers for further processing. I intend to install this on an Atari 2600 Jr for ideal portability, with either a single trrs output jack (with a trrs to 3 rca breakout cable) in place of the original 2600 Jr rca out, or possibly by adding two separate 1/4” audio output jacks, keeping the original rca for composite video output only. Stereo audio is my prime objective, but nice clean video would be a bonus. I’ve PM’d Bryan, but as he’s busy, if anyone with info or suggestions could comment it’d be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
