Re: Adding Text to Config.sys for Menus

Posted on 2018-10-30, 21:49

with smartdrive it is the thing that it is not smart at all for long copys. The norton cache works better for that as it can be unloaded. Also smartdrv cant be unloaded otherwise than rebooting. in fact I would recommend even the MSCDEX not include in the autoexec bat but to have as some batch file …

Re: why not new trackers for our remake soundcards?

Scali! But have you given a try to set online some demoscene code fragment which can be something to start? Are there even those sites (nowadays the search engines get pretty confused if trying to seek something specific and out of the ordinary). At first (after such research and social engineering …

What for password for such ressource?! These ressources are for sharing! once I had such toy and no password needed. -- You came, discovered, connected, you saw something download-upload-communication-messaging. HOwever you could not get to internet through this, so it was exotic idea as the …

Jo22, Yes, it all confirms "what we do not know, we are afraid of", while it is not prohibited to search additional information. One my mutual friend in Estonia makes moonbounce communication with a 4meter parabolic antenna, plus additional 2m/70cm stack with a 20meter antennatower and does very …

Re: Yamaha XG with S/PDIF out ?

Posted on 2018-10-28, 14:42

I see there are S/PDIF in connections but which are the S/PDIF out connections ? There is no such signal for output. Is it possible to solder some leads to this board and get S/PDIF out to work ? Yes. Can be added. See below. I see there is a 5v connection so all you need to do is find the ground …

I'm sorry this is such a long read, but I felt like I could share my story to show that retro hardware can actually be a positive and constructive hobby. It brings me joy at times when nothing else can. It is marvellous, that some couple people can write longer than just couple lines. I really …

these pills and gearhoarding can be replaced with chips. Then all this will take the time and the magic happens becouse instead of "want have" items there will be "want to do" projects, but which are just replacing enough all the above. 8051, AT89S51 and with some new experiments with them are fun …

https://bitbucket.org/jthlim/impulsetracker http://adlibtracker.net/ Those mentioned sources about trackers are absolutely useless. In some more sophisticated companies those dudes get fired right away who write code this way and then add into some repository this way new features. I heard at least …

Re: why not new trackers for our remake soundcards?

Posted on 2018-10-24, 17:59

Well, I personally found the Adlib Tracker II source code to be quite poorly written and hard to maintain/improve as well. Scali, I could not even understand atleast this if it was well or bad written. ;) To me it was impossible to understand and maintainable only for the original author of that …

Re: why not new trackers for our remake soundcards?

Maybe it makes more sense to start off with an existing open source project and expand it. E.g. Impulse Tracker is available: https://bitbucket.org/jthlim/impulsetracker THank You, but WHO would be that capable of modifying that? I looked the source. There is no documentation about the program …

Re: why not new trackers for our remake soundcards?

Posted on 2018-10-24, 15:41

Scali! Well, I could do the hardware. I could learn about the tracker software, as I have 100 hours time for the soundcard project every week, but I am not sure if I ever can do the software side to such level that it begins to work before 10 years will pass, becouse my fiddling can take hours, what …

IMHO. Just start project, show something. If people will find it interesting they join. This is group of free people, "hotheads" who wants to share their knowledge and show their achievements. updated, the schematics about the plans published. see the thread yourself. It has been 5 weeks work so …
