Yeah the 2 values are a bit strange.

I missed out on 2nd spot by a similar margin last time so I'm not complaining big_smile

Yeah, the vids seem to have quiet audio even if I turn up the volume.
I use Hyper Cam 2 and a spectrum emulator.

More oompf in my oscilloscope vid smile

Congrats utz, excellent track as always.
High quality compo as you guys have said.

I agree about Noise in my head. My favourite, love those drums and delays. I actually thought it was phaser 3 as I’ve heard a phaser 3 track on BOTB with a similar lead sound.

I thought AER’s squat track might’ve been Utz’s at first, again very cool track that I’ll listen to over and over.

I Spent a lot of time on Heartbeat so hoped it would do well.

Yo yo on the other hand, just a few hours but I thought it worth entering as a contrast to the other types of tracks I knew would be entered smile

I might tidy it up a bit for a YouTube release with a suitable mad clubber digitised picture smile

Can't wait to have a go at composing on them.
Think I've taken my phaser 3 composing skills as far as I can now. Time to try a new engine smile

Hi Shiru

I use 1-tracker for all my beeper tune compositions these days and find it pretty easy to use now.
Can I request a new feature.

The ability to compile the tune to a specific address ?

All of my phaser 3 tunes have had to be relocated as they've been used in games but I usually have trouble tweaking the .asm to compile with sjasmplus so being able to compile to a user definable address would be great

cheers

Jonathan - Trick or Treat

New ZX Spectrum game just released that I wrote the music for.

Intro tune uses phaser 3 and for the ingame/game over music I used the old faithful 80s engine, Wham the music box as mem was tight.

3 in-game tunes to choose from and multiple samples (press 1-7 after loading or any other key for the default 'Tubular Beeps')

For in-game sfx I made some 1-bit samples using Shiru's BeepFX (absolutely brilliant for creating speccy samples, particularly for converting down 8-bit samples)

Download is here:

Welcome to the forum Andy. As utz says, not the busiest forum but we do check regularly and always great to see new members.
A mine of invaluable info is available here in relation to 1-bit sound and engines.

Our new Team Moritz game 'Mecki Winter Hibernation' has just been released digitally and on tape.

Featuring the vintage German children's TV character Mecki the hedgehog.

It features my beeper music on the title screen and start up.
Using phaser 3 as usual

Hehe yeah, that would be great. Wouldn't hold up much hope though.

More likely used as a coffee mat or CD hung up in the garden to scare the birds off his seed plants smile

Would be great if the chronos engine could in some form be added to 1tracker though

I finally got to meet Tim Follin last weekend at the play expo Blackpool.

Seemed very nice and humble. Also seemed interested in the latest 1-bit advances. I managed to impose a copy of my 'on and off' cd on him which he said he'd have a listen to smile

Probably just thought I was a crazy fan in retrospect big_smile   I did mention our beeper parties

Absolutely amazing demo. Way better than 8088

Loved your soundtrack, Shiru. I've listened to it a few times now, brilliant.

Also the sample Laiden song at end I thought was brilliant too. Thought it was a mod playback until you explained what it was !

Thanks for the greet too smile

Thanks a lot utz. Yeah Serenity was just a little tune I made one night that didn't seem to grate on repeat so I decided to record it.
Mech Dance has been rejected for 2 games now !  I thought I'd record and release it so the effort wasn't wasted.

Still waiting for your albums of those recordings you made a few years ago btw wink
