Sorry, but I was bored. Logic, Nuendo, SONAR and their parent companies all belong to me now. All are going to be rewritten so they only run on beige computers (no matter what the brand) with dark blue desktops. On alternate Wednesdays. And ported to the Commodore 64.

*Puts an arm around Wopelka's shoulder* There, there, it's alright. Ahh, I remember those wonderful c64 days. No viruses, simple applications that did what they were suppose to. We have it so much better today.

You're not alone - sudden flashback to playing "Uridium" and "Thing on a Spring" after far too many beers

Regards,

The only piece of programming I've ever attempted!

Ah those rubber keys.

yeah, me too, i was a sort of "developper" back in the days...

i even wrote little games in basic.

now writing a simple "hello world" in a window is a real pain with VB.Net...

but there is Liberty Basic to keep the fun in...

i spent months writing a music program that used the whole keyboard for input (shift keys were the sharps, raised a half step) and picked a mode mixolydian, dorian whatever and then a set of control keys to record and loop n times a given keyboard input phrase. [heavily influenced by the composition style of Terry Riley's 'In C' -- a common set and sequence of phrases are performed with the performer deciding how many times each phrase is repeated before moving on to the next phrase in the sequence.]

and then record the whole sequence and playback that while adding more layers. {sheesh, do you think I was smoking anything back then?]

i approached a few companies with it as a commercial product. unbelievably they said it was too specialized for experimental music. well duh! fact is it was nearly unusable and had no discernable relation to a piano keyboard.
that SID chip was oh so special when it 1st came out, but once I heard a 'real' synthesizer I never looked back.

Good move, kp. You've still got a few hours left to get in on the z3ta+ group buy, too. :-)

C=64 still like totally rules
especially when you add a Moog Song Producer

We had a C128- I remember EA made a game called adventure construction set that allowed you to develop your own RPGs. We also ran Geos in 128 mode- what a great Operating environment that was.

I still have mine, the vic 20 too, the full 3.5kb ram of it

Got my original Commie and VIC-20, plus an apparently unused C=64 bought at a yard sale for $1 (no accessories, just the "keyboard" part). But the old Amdek Color II monitor is shot, and it's such a shame to run a Commodore on the monitor from one of the Apple ][s...
