I've just released my first #game!!
#TMSnake for CP/M compatible #rc2014 computers with a #tms9918a video module and (optionally) a #AY89XX or #YM2149 sound module. It also optionally supports the #Tynemouth #joystick module.
Here is a recording of the Atari STe racing game "FaSTEr" in-game music track.

I'll be at Wood Chip Fest this year again (and on stage too).
Because I definitely need that fun time. 😌

Did a little jolly tune for a nice season themed Atari ST single-screen intro, presented at #SillyVenture 2024WE.

More AY3 / YM2149 sound chip action. AY300 and YM300, each as a three voice stack, with some SID drums as the driver. Lots of lovely trills when it gets going and some buff octaving C64 style bass line action. The kind of tune that'd definitely have had the telly cranked in my school daze. It's awesome👾🕹📺🙂

Finished. AY300 and YM300 chip tune oscillators. Chip tune oscillators running the AY3-8910 and the YM2149. Both more or less the same. The YM isn't as dirty as the AY and not quite as gnarly. Both get 10/10 for retroness and in sounding like ZX spectrum and Atari ST daze. Especialy with the modulator accessible to pull off 'sid voice' kinds of tricks that can be found in the demoscene.

Latest developments on the new #Atari STe #racing game "FaSTEr" included my new (longer) version of the in-game music.

I never expected Rob Hubbard's Commodore 64 SID music to sound this good on an Atari ST without using the DMA of the STE😮 It is just using the YM2149 and timer effects.
Amazing achievement by the demo group Cream.

Wait, isn't there something like a summer break for this guy ever?!
Nope. 'cuz summer 🌞 time is…
Radio Irrtum! SPECIAL time!
↓↓↓ German version far below the English one ↓↓↓
Precisely said, the next issue of #RadioIrrtum! will be on air this Saturday, 2024/07/06, 8:00pm UTC+2/Berlin time, sharp. Over at Alex Berlin FM at 91MHz and DAB+ K7D around Berlin and worldwide at https://www.alex-berlin.de/radio/15-live-auf-91.0 .
#Radio Irrtum! is a German language #radioShow exploring the sonic vastness of the #underground to raise your attention for new unheard #music. So it's fine to ignore that German language aspect - 'cuz it's all about the music!
And this time there is a Special rolling in! The…
Chiptune PuNk Special!!
Up to date helluva #phunky #demoscene #chiptunes running on old rusty #homeComputers from the 80s like the #zxSpectrum, #C16/#Plus4, #AtariST, #C64 and of course the #Amiga.
No additional effects, no extra synths, no added drums. Just pure chippy bless!
Music full of #bitrot sample aliasing & strange chirps on brutally tackled chips like the #TED, #YM2149, #SID, and of course #Paula. No worries, I'll explain it all (however in German – as my station demands it).
With super cool music hackers like…
- @ne7@icosahedron.website
- Shiru
- @h0ffman@mas.to
- STU (didn't know him when I produced this show 4 weeks ago – just found his music excellent. However this weekend I was performing next to him on stage in La Chaux-de-Fonds (not kidding - life is sometimes full of surprises) - AND WHAT A SET HE DID, LIVE on his 2 original Atari STs!!)
- LMan
- Jammer
- @bacalao@v.basspistol.org
- Groo
- Xale or
- Psych858o
I've always wanted to produce THIS FEATURE and now it's right there, already uploaded to the station and ready 2 hit the aether. I'm totally happy how it came out and can't wait to have it in public. That is why I'll attach my in depth explanation trailer instead of just the animated Radio Irrtum! logo. This one: https://video.ploud.fr/w/iDTikV3q7y5YqeY2LBdLwn
I'll post playlist + manuscript later here (provided I’m home, else it will come up the day after). And if you have questions? I'll gladly answer! Just ask!
CU all on Saturday! :)

Radio Irrtum! Chiptune Special
Diesen Samstag, 06.07.2024, 20 Uhr auf Alex Berlin, in/um Berlin auf FM 91.0 MHz und DAB+ K7D + weltweit im Stream (s.o.).
Brandaktuelle echte unverfälschte Chiptunes (kein Hall, keine extra Drums, keine extra Samples) auf alter Hardware der 80er, die auf deart absurde Weise durchgehacked wird (code only!), dass sie jetzt definitiv nicht mehr so klingt, wie ursprünglich gedacht – dafür aber major phunky! ;)
Details auf englisch oben, Playlist + Sendemanuskript nach der Sendung hier drunter und wenn ich mir was wünschen darf: Euch als Zuhörer:innen obendrauf. Danke Euch und vielleicht bis zum Samstag Abend…
A bit of esoteric gravediggery, but it might pique someone's interest. My attempts to play back YM music by realtime-depacking LZ data: https://github.com/tattlemuss/minymiser #atari #ym2149
I'm still on track for a new module every month in 2024, I am pleased to announce that the RC2014 Why Em-Ulator Sound Module is now available at z80kits!
This does away with the reliance on old YM2149 / AY-3-8910 or the gamble of buying pulled chips from eBay with AVR-AY firmware running on an ATMega.
If you don't like the idea of a small surface mount micro spoiling your vintage looking RC2014, don't worry, it can be hidden under any DIP40 chip!
I haven't posted for a while and here's why... I've been working on adding bit-banged IRQ-driven software bass to my LZSS music player for the #BBCMicro (borrowing heavily from The Bitshifters).
Here's an #SN76489 conversion of a #C64 #SID version of an #AtariST #YM2149 track.

Atari Undeground Chiptune Resistance 53
A mix of chiptunes from ZX spectrum and Atari ST played on the AtariST YM2149

Today is a Modmate/SMFX YM2149 day.
The Hatari-devel mailinglist is currently having an ... interesting ... discussion regarding Hatari sound quality and filtering. I think it would be wise for anyone interested in the topic to at least keep themselves informed, and maybe supply some insight.
Search for the topic "Sound lowpass filtering".

Anyone familiar with #RP2040 and #PiPico stuff? I'm pretty much a beginner with microcontrollers/hardware and I'm trying to port over some #Arduino test code to run on it, however there are some details I can't quite figure out (mostly in regards to clock signal generation and writing 8-bit values over GPIO).
I'm trying to power a #YM2149 (or #AY38910) sound chip using it, unfortunately however I can't seem to get any sound out of the thing. Here's the original code I'm trying to port: https://github.com/internalregister/AY-3-8910/blob/master/AY-3-8910_test.ino
And here's my current attempt: https://gist.github.com/TheEssem/c5d8c9802d70eb9e02843036ff3d69e1
If anyone could help figure out what's wrong with this code, that would be greatly appreciated.
