Thanks.
In coming days I am going to share audio samples recorded from the new sound cartridge output.

That be good. :thumbup:

Looking at this previous post viewtopic.php?p=68160#p68160 some trackers were mentioned but I have not been able to find any of them :(

Anyone know where to download one from which will work from floppy ?

EDIT: Found http://www.atarimania.com/utility-atari ... 25173.html

So far it does not like medium resolution or TOS206 :roll: And I cannot use the keys for the mouse :roll:
And how the heck are you supposed to load something :shrug:

Control and L does not do anything at all.


It's not very user-friendly is it :roll:

EDIT:

Seems I have to click the down arrow on the thing next to which looks like a floppy. Only problem is pressing the LOAD button the drive light up and then nothing happens :roll:

Guess I will just look for some different software which isn't demented then :roll:

This one I cannot seem to see anywhere changing the output to anything at all really.

Noise tracker 1.5 says it supports MV16... So will give that one a try.

EDIT:

Yep this one works! Yep the sound quality of trackers on the ST sounds as bad as I remember it to be :lol: Is not actually that bad through the cartridge though I think. Definitely need some tone controls or something on it tho :lol:

EDIT2:

I can hear the floppy drive through the audio. Someone fell victim same as I did with the audio circuit on the H5 :lol:

EDIT3:

Noise tracker fails to play dreamland, It crashes on the third pattern :roll:

no woman is somehow playing in slow-mo :lol:

I'll give it castle master, bit easier for it :lol: Seems not to bad really :D

EDIT4:

EDIT5:

I think replay_15 might be using a higher sample playback frequency as it sounds better :shrug:

Hope it helps.
This is the schematic I have implemented.
It improves some features.

Cool thanks. Looks like you got some smoothing and filtering going on in there. That's one thing I was thinking to try on my board.

I'd be interested in buying a fully built one from you to play about with :)

Well, I wasn't familiar with this particular piece of software so I
downloaded and tried it on my Mega STe.

In low res or med res, I couldn't get it to run at all. It gets so far
then has some kind of message about running/loading something
or the other but never progresses.

Key presses don't do anything and even <control><alt><delete>
wouldn't reset it. I had to either power off/on or use the physical
reset button.

Pass I think. :roll:
