In a few days it's calendar spring - how about a cheerful song for the occasion?

in the 6502 world it performs very well. on the Z80 it should be good too....

APL: 2768
ZX0: 2735
ZX5: 2606

It is better to check for yourself because it strictly depends on the data. Shrinkler also has a NP (no parity) version which does not need as many buffers. In my tests valmost always ZX0 (ZX5 - mutation that remembers 3 ofsets) is better then APL, but I operate on very similar data (graphics) let's check on the example of music:

freezing point:  94 841 bytes
ZX0: 12 659
APL: 12 351
ZX5: 9 019

you probably write about Shrinkler but have you checked the ZX0? The decompressor is shorter, faster and more efficient than aPL (apultra)

I meant the Atari 800XL ...

Great!

Too bad it's not available for Atari sad

As for porting other engines, we'll see. I think it is a good to bring some more of the finest ZX developments to the Atari platform.


Phaser3 ?

Forward To Infinity by UTZ / Irrlicht Project ZX Spectrum 1-Bit Beeper Music

squat... so... make available a version for Atari also smile

Do you have addresses of any parties from 2020/2021 where 1-bit music were presented?

1/50 sec. NMI interrupt (vertical blank interrupt also performs other operations and thus takes a long time)

if you use interrupts then you can use IRQs to interrupt playback loops to reload counters but regular loop works well too

Shiru: maybe another engine? maybe you can add export for Atari to 1tracker as well?

utz: you need to turn off the screen (DMA off) and turn off the NMI interrupts because during its execution the CONSOL (1-bit sound) register is reset, IRQ should also be turned off and possibly read the keyboard directly. there are no restrictions beyond these guidelines.
