New experiments - Phazzero

null@example.com (Shiru) — Sun, 06 Apr 2025 01:49:36 +0000

Decided to mess up with the Plip Plop alike single voice classic engines, examine the code, and maybe think up some new ideas. This is a fork of this activity. I decided to try to make a single voice Phaser1, but with a couple new features:

- Pitch represented linearly in cents
- Synthesis code interleaved with logic

What this basically gives is a possibility to seamless linear slides and vibrato that runs inside the rows rather than per frame or per row. Also easy arpeggios that can slide between notes.

It is not a complete engine, just demo code. It basically capable to what the Plip Plop synth is capable of, plus clean vibrato that can be applied to one or both oscillators.

Rubicon Stage 1 (Tritone Cover)

null@example.com (MovieMovies1) — Fri, 24 Jan 2025 06:01:55 +0000

Even more Tritone stuff, uploaded to YT because I got a weird false copyright claim on SoundCloud for a completely unrelated piece of music and I didn't wanna bother dealing with it.

Attached zip file contains the source module as well as the converted .asm and compiled .tap files. To get the same result when compiling for yourself you need the linear pitch xm2tritone converter, and you need to specify the clock rate as 3475804 (i.e. "xm2tritone.exe rubicon.xm 3475804" in the commandline).

I put the new XM-to-Tritone converter with better detune support through its paces with this. Picked this track specifically because of its usage of finer vibratos and some pitch sliding to really give it a proper spin. Many thanks to utz for writing up the new detune conversion code!

Stripes (Tritone)

null@example.com (MovieMovies1) — Tue, 14 Jan 2025 22:45:12 +0000

I might as well post this here since I remembered I have an account here. First piece of music I made this year as a whole.

Still most comfy with the Tritone engine after all these years.

Kitty Katacombs - new tune

Another little <1KB intro tune I was asked to write.

This time for the soon to released game Mr Hair and the Kitty Katacombs - Easy Tiger version

The game has an Eastern flavour and cats so I wrote a fitting intro tune
Still having fun with buzkik, love those drums
