Hello Friends,
today's video is about the Beepblaster 1.0, developed and send to me by Paddy aka. Ulfenknulfen. It is a tiny GM-compatible module based on the Atmel ATMEGA microcontroller. It generates sounds by PWM instead of wave samples which gives it a lovely and unique 22khz mono lo-fi sound.

Heres the Vogons thread if you want to join the discussion:

And here is the GIT-HUB project of Daniel Lehenbauer. His Arduino MIDI software is the basis of the Beepblaster's firmware, albeit it is heavily modified by Paddy to run on this module.

If you want to skip through the records, here is the tracklist:

01:30 Track 1 Cannon Fodder
03:18 Track 2 Doom
05:15 Track 3 Ultima VI (1)
06:54 Track 4 Ultima VI (2)
09:27 Track 5 Rise of the Triad
11:56 Track 6 Amberstar
13:36 Track 7 Wolfenstein 3D
14:47 Track 8 UFO Enemy Unknown
15:45 Track 9 Ultima VI (3)
16:43 Track 10 Doom (2)

Subscribe to my channel and look forward to the upcoming video when I demonstrate the Beep-Mode and compare it to the Synth Mode.
