We've been working further on the GUD bank, adding more drum kits, balancing sounds,... The banks work on X2 and X3M. We'd appreciate your feedback, before finalizing the bank. I used X3M to digitally record some tracks : Descent : https://soundcloud.com/dreamblaster/descent-dreamblaster-x3m-gudbeta …

oh you can do this using the jumpers on CVX4 : put jumper 6 and 7 high --> 56k and 27k in parallel = 18k resistance --> close to 15k of and also put jumper 2 and 4 high, this gives 0.0048 microfarad --> very close to 0.005 JUMPERS: 1 = add 1nF to low pass filter 2 = add 4.7nF to low pass filter 3 = …

Hi, I tested TEMU and CVX4, to play games with Tandy / PCJr sound, and this works : using TEMU 3.03 : just start TEMU /L1 /T44 (for LPT port 1 and 44Khz rate (this is what I tried, maybe less will sound better?)) You can see me setup this and test Tandy 1000TL sound in Thexder 2 : https://www. …

There may be a better algorithm than plain dropping the lowest 8 bit, when converting from 16 bit to 8 bit and reduce quantization noise ? Yes, for instance audacity offers dithering options; try triangular or noise shaped dithering when exporting into 8-bit file. Hey yeah, have listen at this page …

Hey, a small update : I noticed I needed to swap 2 smd caps, to get all right filters : The automated assembly had put 47nF and 100nF on there (my mistake in part nrs), but we need to do subtle filtering of course (exactly as tested)! For the 6 units already shipped out : I will send you another …

E: Of course you aren't using an ADC, you're piping the digital output of the USB sound output device and adding it to the digital output of the 5504 and piping it back into the USB interface. Not sure which chips are responsible for the USB interface, though. Not planning to duplicate, just …

I kind of want one of those DreamBlaster X2 things too, but know I'll probably just end up running it off USB and line input. I kind of also want to pester their designers to see if they have a software simulator, or if they have plans to make the USB interface capable of digitally recording the …
