No probs, I've sorted it now. I was using v0.29 rather than v0.30
Very impressive tune

Hi Shiru
I can't get the tune to load into 1tracker, it errors.
I've copied the squatm.1te into the engines folder, is there anything else to do ?

Re: Spectronica (Part 2) new tune (2 replies, posted in Sinclair)
Cheers utz, yeah I spent a few weeks on this one polishing. Still not happy with the simple drums so I might lower the bd value so not quite as prominent or add a few more zap infills.
I don't like to include too much percussion as I prefer the overall sound to be more electronic music than chiptune, if that's possible with a beeper tune.
There are a couple of notes that sound a bit off on real hw too but fine on emulator so I'll tweak those.
I will only release the real hw recording as I still remember mister beeps words of wisdom. I often think it's cheating releasing recordings from emulators.
Yeah I saw that comment about thinking it was being played on a Russian clone. Very odd

I've uploaded a new version of my 1-bit Mechanistic album.

Re: utz' beeper engine releases (5 replies, posted in Sinclair)
Hi utz
Just tried the aczidbox tune again. Amazing. Notice it doesn't respond to keypress ?
A friend has nearly finished his space shooter game and this would be a great intro tune if the keypress was enabled.
cheers

Re: TwinCh engine demo (10 replies, posted in Sinclair)
Wow sounds great.
Could've done with this when I was writing some jingles for my new game recently. I ended up using a qchan game over jingle which took 720 bytes and a few huby jingles (a few hundred bytes each).
So will the file size be halved once channel 3 & 4 data is removed (plus the engine) ?

Re: PETs Can't Keep Dying by AYCE (13 replies, posted in Other Platforms)
Very impressive sound from the Pet. A friend of mine owns one that he found discarded in a skip a few years ago.
I've no idea what the text is talking about or who Mr Murray is but I enjoyed the music and great to hear beeper stuff on other platforms.

Luca Bordoni has just released his new homebrew creation of the mythical ZX Spectrum game by ultimate.
He asked me to do some beeper music (intro and 3 jingles). I had very little memory so I decided to write something very basic mirroring the classic ultimate style. Single channel with implied bass. I used wham and had both channels playing the same notes.
I used Bach's prelude 2 as a starting point as Sabre Wulf used prelude 1.
Yt vid is here with download link at the bottom

Hi Guys
I've just made a YT vid of my latest 1-bit tune '8Bit Wars' which is the title track for the new ZX Spectrum game by Luca Bordoni.
The game is a perk included the Kickstarter campaign for the 8Bit Wars Film which is coming out.
Written using phaser 3 and 1tracker as usual (I'm still loving this engine).
