Stumbled across these tools for 16k & 48k Spectrum from developer/synth maker Decadebridge

'CHANCE' is a random note generator software package.

Hm, seems these are rather simple tools. But somewhat reasonably priced so still a nice item to have. Looking forward to your User Experience Report big_smile

My ss key appears to have decided to stop working so have not been able to load onto hardware yet.
(Not sure when that happened as I have been loading things from a divMMC recently)

The developer kindly let me have wavs & snapshots so was able to load them straight into Fuse, had a brief play but will spend more time when I get back to the studio.
Been doing some searching but haven't been able to find a utility program to convert snapshots to .tap files (or wav to tap)
so I can load them onto the spectrum itself.
Assume this isn't quite as simple a process as I would have assumed?

You can just load .sna from divMMC. Otherwise there's SnapToTap for .sna->.tap conversion, and z802tzx for .z80->.tzx conversion (which you'll then have to convert to .tap for use with divMMC). See http://www.worldofspectrum.org/utilities.html#tzxtools
Assuming that the programs are written in pure BASIC, you could probably also dump the BASIC from Fuse and then shove it through zmakebas.
