The Spectrum User YT channel has uploaded a fuse recording of my Radio In The Rain tune (written using utz's brilliant zbmod2 digital engine).

The track name was chosen after a friend in the US said that's what the sound reminded him of.

It is currently competing in this years BOTB Winterchip compo.

Hi

Just downloaded a bunch of amazing games in the coding compo:

https://rgb.yandex/

One amazing game called 'Valley of Rains' has a great beeper title track.

At first I thought it was SFX but on closer listen the synth sounds more like a Follin engine and the drums are different to SFX.

Any ideas?

Maybe one of Shiru's new 1tracker engines (Buzz click) or a follin engine with drums added ?

Hi Pedro

Welcome aboard. Great to see you here smile

When you've finished with beepola it's time to explore the truly amazing new engines in 1tracker and Bintracker written by Shiru and utz.

All the links are available in the forum. Everyone is a fan of AY stuff too.

Love your Mike the guitar qchan track smile

Very interesting sound Shiru. Don't think I've every heard volume increases that smooth in a 1-bit engine before !

Ooh yeeeeeeees !

Something new again. Love the mix of noise and PFM, I could have some great fun with this, it's got lots of potential.

Look forward to the Bintracker implementation smile

Cheers utz

Great to see you writing new engines again smile

Nice sound on this one, good bass and the drums are a nice volume too.

Any chance of implementing into Bintracker?

Looks like it would be a good engine to experiment with !

Wow thanks for sharing. I'll read your paper when I get a chance.

Really enjoyed your track, particularly the vibrato parts. You don't hear that very often in 1-bit music

A new raw version of my Spectronica album is free to download.
6 of the tracks reworked with overdubbed speech removed and a new loading track.

Download it free here:

https://tufty1.bandcamp.com/album/raw-spectronica

Wow, excellent work. The Octode tune in particular I think sounds great.

Not sure if the song ripper in beepola works for huby but it certainly does for qchan, tritone and phaser 1.
Have you tried porting the qchan engine? There are masses of great tunes in battle of the bits that can be downloaded and the song file extracted. Also on chipmusic.org

Anyway, welcome aboard. It's great to hear your enthusiasm for 1-bit. Let us know of any new tunes you get running smile

Would be interesting to compose with a new mono 1-bit ZX Beeper engine. I still have a go with Rombeep sometimes but that doesn't allow low octave notes (through beepola)

Great album Shiru. I've listened to it quite a bit. It's surprising how addictive this type of monophonic music is !

Great compositions and I don't think I've ever heard drum sounds like that from PC Speaker mono tunes before   smile
