Cybertracker question.

I have come across Cybertracker and it seems like a worthwhile program to use. Problem is its only in .D64 format. If it was in .tap format I could convert it to a wav file and load it into my real C64. Are there any .tap files available of this tracker or is there a way to convert a .D64 file to a ...

Re: Quick music theory question !

Pedal points are common in modern pop music. Pedal points are when the bass notes stay on one note to anchor harmonies around it. Its a good technique to build up tension in music. The youtube video is not the best example. For a clearer understanding listen to In The Air Tonight by Phil Collins. Pe...

Re: Article: The Remix64 Voting System

I think the voting system is a lot more balanced now. Don't know about your thoughts on this but I do tend to find on remixes that people release who ever makes a comment first on the remix. Their initial rating tends to influence the subsequent comments you will get mainly in either a positive or n...

Re: Getting my feet wet with a Yamaha YPT220, MIDI Sheet music?

For under a tenner you could try Magix Music Studio MM that has sheet music you can print out from Midi files. I use Cubase AV that came free with a controller keyboard I bought don't think it works on Windows Vista though. Of course just importing a sid to midi track won't always give you best resu...

Native Instruments Pro53 question.

This question has been bugging me for over 5 years so can anyone comeup with an idea why? I bought Pro 53 some time ago and was running it stand alone on my old Windows 95 P200 computer using a soundblaster card. Granted the polyphony was only 4 notes but I believe the original Pro 5 had that too. S...

Synth internal batteries question.

Being a fan of hardware synths. I have some from the 80's/90's that I have instorage and I was wondering how long the battery lasts before it wipes the memory? As much as I like hardware synths this does seem to be their downfall which softsynths or pre battery analog synths don't have.

Re: Sly Spy Secret Agent Remix released!

Cheers Analog X-64.

I've taken on board the comments particulary Peter W's and after not heard it for over a month he's right I have overdone the topend EQ's so I've resubmitted it which should make listening too it a little less harsh. Look out for it soon!

Sly Spy Secret Agent Remix released!

My Sly Spy Secret Agent Remix has been made available at Amiga Remix. I think its one of my best remixes to date as it features me playing my trumpet, synths and a funky 70's wah wah guitar! The remix production was inspired by Chic and 70's disco as well as a track from the film The Spy Who Loved M...

Re: Going back to my roots!!

Cheers Analog-X64!

Can't wait to try and get this one released! This time off has let me brush up on my Guitar and Brass skills and now I can (attempt) go to other musical areas that I wouldn't have been able to if I'd have just stuck with my trusty synths!
