Amstrad CPC and chipmusic

[atarisince1989]

Since I was 8 years old I'm owner of an Amstrad CPC myself. I started with a CPC464 and then I got the CPC6128. The same I still have nowadays!

Back in the days I wasn't too much into music, I dedicated my time essentially to play games and to programming (BASIC, of course ), but recently I discovered a very good piece of software: STarKos.

It is very good, and there is even a version for Windows systems, called Arkos.

I'm planning to do some chipmusic as soon as I get some free time, but I thought it would be nice to share this with you.

My first computer was the Spectrum 128K, which had the same sound chip in it, though I had my eyes on the world of MIDI when I was upgrading. My intention was to upgrade to a Spectrum +3 for the disk drive, but Atari dropped the price of the ST so it was only about 50 pounds more than the Spectrum was.

From that point, I got a DX100 and a copy of Pro24, and kept on going from there.

Anyhow, back to the topic in hand. Please do feel free to upload any tracks you finish onto the Live player

Good luck with it

Yes, my idea is, as soon as I finish my uni's exams in October, take a rest until next year and do some serious music. I would like to publish some kind of EP. May the force be with me

Don't worry, my cap is 9 pints in a night

Well it was our fault for staying in the travelodge bar, but balls of steel was on and we can't miss Neg with his urban sports and the annoying devil, especially with his car of evil
