Cheers utz.

Another great engine with another unique sound smile

Thanks for the xm template, oh and thanks a lot for the .tap version of the qaop soundcloud tune.


Look forward to tomorrow's instalment  smile

Two great engines so far Utz smile

I love the lofi sound and volume control of qaop (btw any chance of including the xm / tap of the demo tune from soundcloud ? Would be great to know how it sounds on a real Speccy and how you wrote it)

Quattropic is really great too, I love the sound, general tone, bass and balanced percussive sounds.


Can't wait for the next five smile

what a great show and music! I'd love to have been there...


I agree, great show, I'd love to have been there too. Utz, you looked like you were really enjoying it smile


Btw, was Iztek being played live from the Speccy or from the laptop?  The display on the LCD screen next to the Speccy looked like the Jan Deak tribute album, did you also play Crystal Realm in your set?

Ah yes, how could I forget '1-Bit Music' ?  wink

Fair play to Tristan, he's now got the album on Spotify too!


Was really ZX Beeper music I was interested in though.

Hi Guys

Does anyone have a link to a download for the ZX Beeper album that John Norton Irr released around 2013?

There used to be a link on the old forum that I used to follow, there was also a really cool album by AER that I used to listen to that was listed below the John Norton Irr one.

I'm trying to collect all the ZX Beeper albums released.
So far I have:

Monophonic Generator     -        Mister Beep (2009)
The Lowest Fidelity            -        Mister Beep (2010)
Exile                            -        Voxel (2010)
A Thousand Furious Bees    -        Mister Beep (2011)
Z80                            -        Mister Beep (2012)
The Journey Begins            -        1-Bit Wizards (2012)
Chromospheric Flares            -        Mister Beep (2014)
Dat Fuzz                        -        Irrlicht Project (2014)
1-Bit Mechanistic            -        Tufty (2014)
In Memoriam of Jan Deak    -        Various (2014)
One Myth                        -        Garvalf (2015)


Can anyone think of any others?

Nice vid, I'd heard Monkey Island before but not a lot of the other tunes.

I think this is a cool PC speaker tune that doesn't seem to get mentioned much,  by David Whittaker I think.

Hello,
Btw, talking about beepola, I found this thread with astonishing tunes by FrankT:
http://www.worldofspectrum.org/forums/d … -wip-tunes


Wow !

I see what you mean, some amazing SID-like beeper tunes from FrankT there.

Darklight & Super70s in particular. The AY stuff is amazing too smile

Wow, this is a great idea smile

Unfortunately the midi convertor .exe doesn't seem to work on Windows 64bit so I couldn't try it out sad

Here are some midi files I was going to have a go at converting if anyone else wants to try (I think some of them could sound pretty good, particularly FOFT)

Hi Shiru

I think it's the first time I've make contact with you, great work with the Qchan engine btw, I use it all the time smile

I wouldn't have a clue about making a sound engine but it's still very interesting reading the posts smile

Utz - are you thinking of including volume variation into anteater or one of your other engines?

Hi utz


I was listening to the .tap version of your Dat Fuzz album yesterday and was wondering if you could tell me what software you used to produce the narrow font for the text?

Is it available on the WOS archive?


Cheers

A new header background is a great idea, not sure about expanding into 1-bit art but could be fun smile

Some great compos there smile

I may be wrong but I thought you were only allowed 1 cover per format on BOTB?
Is this special battle 1 cover per year in any format?

I hope so, I'll have a go at making another entry smile
