It's not bad. It may be monophonic, but you can merge sounds together, fire samples, play your syndrums and use paddles to adjust your on-screen 'pots'. Two things I don't like about it is that you can only record the length of about four beats at a time in the sequencer and it doesn't output your s...

If you're lucky you may find that your Action Replay can save the music as MIDI from a game. Failing that, you may wish to compromise by downloading the SID file for the 64 version and run it through SID2MIDI. http://www.google.com/search?sourceid=navclient&ie=UTF-8&rls=GBSB,GBSB:2009-24,GBS...

Is the bass boomy? Are the sounds too bright? Are you unable to find the 'sweet spot' between your monitors? Heavy drapes do work well, long as you don't take them to extremes. Best thing to do, with ordinary stuff, if I remember rightly, is to have your monitors a couple of feet forward from the mi...

You could always try emulation: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&rls=GBSB%2CGBSB%3A2009-24%2CGBSB%3Aen&q=free+moog+vst&aq=0&oq=free+moog+&aqi=g5. That searches for free Moog emulators which can run on any PC powerful enough. Virtual Instruments, or VSTi, are these days faithful...

Take a look at my topic on Instant Music: http://www.remix64.com/board/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=6949 Just doodle on the screen and it plays the doodles. If you have a 64, route from a MIDI cartridge to your PC and away you go. (Mind you, using MIDI forces the player to rely on the sounds from his sou...

Musicians have said I was cheating because I.M. allows you to make and play music whilst totally ignorant of its mechanics and principles. But from a technical view, no it's not cheating because the aim of the game is get yourself as high a quality result as possible. I do have music made with it ac...

Looking at my threads I seem to have quite a few viewers. Nothing to put the readership of Zzap to shame, but a nice little handful anyway. So just in case anyone's interested, I re-wrote my Instant Music page to give a much better overview of what the software was and what it could be used for. Alr...

I'd give anything to be a Dane just this minute.......

How much does it cost to send to England?

http://homepage.ntlworld.com/michael.braisher/Record.htm Take a look down the left of the page, just above the photo of the Action Replay and MIDI cartridge in the expansion board. You'll see I've added links to a few of the demos I found which contain mock-ups of other computer boots. Now it's your...

http://www.c64.ch/demos/download.php?id=1612 Cows98, that one's called. Binary Zone has an Amiga one, but other ones abound somewhere. It took me a while to find because a lot of my downloads go straight to cassette for use on the real machines. But it's quite interesting to see 'Windows 98' boot fr...

I don't know. But off the top of my head I do know there have been many similar demos which used Commodore imagery. Some of my favourites have actually been the Amiga mock-up ones, where boot sequences, desktops and sounds have been skilfully replicated on the Commodore 64. I've also seen demos of P...

http://www.google.com/search?sourceid=navclient&ie=UTF-8&rls=GBSB,GBSB:2009-24,GBSB:en&q=commodore+64+soiled+legacy+demo The above, if it clicks, takes you to the Google results for COMMODORE 64 SPOILED LEGACY DEMO. Both the disk image and Youtube video are available. What an epitaph, a ...

http://www.concept-single.net/Blowin'_In_My_Wind.mp3 I suppose if someone was to actually make something from my own Commodore tunes (even if the only hand a Commodore had in it was to be the composing tool), the question could be whether they could improve on it. For example, could you listen to th...

Thanks.

And take a look at my other post in the Work In Progress section.

This has no title, but I wonder if anybody would fancy covering a little SID tune of mine? http://www.concept-single.net/cs14music.mp3 It's the third and longest piece of music on the MP3. I don't know about anyone else, but my mind can hear harmonica for the lead melody, fuzzy rhythm guitar backing...
