The Innovation SSI-2001 is a sound card and a failed an Adlib-competitor. It was a single MOS 6582 SID on an ISA card with a standard gameport and a mono RCA output, and nothing else.
The card can select from the following addresses:
280*, 2A0, 2C0, 2E0
* - default
Now, there are fine SID emulated cores like reSID out there, it should be easy to incorporate one into DOSBox for this purpose. The only question is whether the card had an address & data port or simply exposed the SID registers to the ISA bus directly. As the SID has 32 registers (29 useable) and the I/O selections are exactly 32 bytes apart, the latter is more likely. It would be easy to determine.
The Innovation SSI-2001 is confirmed to be supported in Bad Blood, Lexi-Cross & Ultima VI (where I found out about the I/O ports), and is likely supported in a few other games.
