Cool sound utz

Hi guys

I think this is a great idea. As you know, I've always liked to try and include voice-like sounds in my Beeper tunes,
1-Bit Mechanistic, Mechanoid etc.

An engine I'd love to hear is a rombeep one that converts voice sounds right down to basic beeps. Almost like the effect used sometimes on synthpop music where a vocoder effect is turned up to the max.

I've thought of trying to analyse the waveform of some allophones and manually work out a 'beep-set' myself which could be used in a Beeper tune.

I tried it on my cover of 'Difficult for Weirdos' right at the end.

Another Beeper engine idea is QChan+
A hybrid engine with an AY bass channel (buzztone etc.)

I thought maybe one of the channels could be played as standard QChan but also the same notes as AY bass?
That way the song data could be used and exported from Beepola and incorporated into the Qchan+ engine .asm ?

What do you think utz????

Wow, another amazing engine and original sound

Love the volume control (particularly at the beginning of the demo tune).

Is the low buzz bass at the beginning coupled with volume controlled lead really all beeper or is this a hybrid engine??

Brilliant

I was thinking exactly the same thing Garvalf !

Roll on Winterchip, time for some fresh sounding Beeper tunes

he he, that sounds very intriguing Garvalf! Can't wait ????

I thought all three tracks were great.

Couldn't guess which engine utz's track used and I actually thought 'Road Song' used the Savage engine when I first heard it. Certainly sounds cleaner than other tritone engined tunes!

Hi abrimaal

welcome back to the forum

Love your hybrid and multi-engine / digital stuff. Also, great idea to use Beepola for the editor.

utz - wow, the buzzer effect sounds amazing over the Beeper

Abrimaal has done some hybrid engine work too

I remember when I used to do sample based Quartet music on the ST back in the 90s I used to export instruments from existing .mod files, usually Amiga ones that had been ported over.

Still have quite a few .mods so I'll probably look through those and test some of the instruments to see which sound OK in the engine.
