BASIC in 2020 - DIY microcomputer w/ early 90s graphics - Colour MaxiMite 2 (build/test) debuglive 2020-06-21 | I've coded BASIC since I was 5 : C64 then QBASIC then VB - so when a sub-100USD boot-to-BASIC touting 16-bit graphics appeared, I decided to build one (aka 5) from beta plans. Anyone who struggled with QBASIC on a 386 or AMOS on an Amiga and just wished it was faster (without poke commands) will probably love this box. It seems promising for late 80's / early 90's sprite based games (like Turtles / SF2) and being BASIC, it's simple and fun to code. The CMM2 is purely a DIY hobby box for BASIC lovers and not designed for pro use. It creates a world similar to the C64 / MSX / QBASIC / BLITZ days. It natively plays Amiga MOD files, imports PNGs for sprites, fast decodes JPEG, and plays WAV files making it easy / fun for collaboration, game jams, VJ'ing or just noodling about. It's the BASIC that any early 90's programmer wished they had "back in the day"!To make one you can source all the parts manually (like I did here) or build it as a kit from numerous places (coming July/Aug). I've seen a prototype a with surface mount STM (no WaveShare) which may even knock the price lower. The BASIC is still just-about-slow-enough that you have to work within a SNES / Megadrive (looking) limit, but that is a fun limit to work with and causes the programmer to write some legitimate looking and feeling retro-games / demos. Personally I still find BASIC the most fun language I've ever come across; and it's easy to show newcomers. For collab, even though it's offline, the fun of syncing your SD cards and working on routines / resources separately then combining powers in a sit-back-and-test session brings back those old days.Massive thanks to Peter Mather and Geoff Graham for their fantastic design and dev work. Cheers to Mauro Xavier for some great demos.
The cheapest MIDI home-studio of 1988 debuglive 2023-07-03 | Take an Atari ST, 4 budget synths from 1988, and spend months seeing how far they can go - all while staring at a black-and-white CRT! I took me over a year to make this given most of the equipment was DOA and keeping in mind there's another part coming later this year. Massive thanks to mu:zines and archive.org for their incredible collections. This led me to all the cheapest gear that people were actually using back in the day. Thanks also to all those I reached out to who verified most of the findings and gave me amazing insights to the gear of the day.Gear used: Atari 520ST (mostly), Roland MT-100, Yamaha MusicStation PSS-580, Kawai K1, Yamaha EMT-10, Dr T MIDI Recording Studio, Cubase 1.5 and Rotel mini system.00:00 - Intro01:10 - Atari's Sound and finding your first synth02:40 - Synth - Yamaha MusicStation PSS-58005:02 - Atari - DR T's MIDI Recording Studio (demo)08:32 - DEMO - MusicStation & Monitor11:13 - Synth - MT-32 Intro14:00 - Atari - Cubase 1.5 (demo)17:56 - DEMO - MT-32 Solo & Polyphony discussion19:52 - Synth - Kawai K1 Intro21:50 - Synth - Kawai programming and MIDI assign23:12 - DEMO - Kawai K1 and Guitar Jam26:00 - DEMO - Yamaha EMT-10 + MT-3227:45 - Conclusion and End tune (demo on the Kawai K1)Please do not copy this entire video to your own channel without permission.

MaxiMite Colour 1 - BASIC Kit Computer (pre-upgrade) debuglive 2020-05-21 | 5 years later... I finally got around to building my Maximite BASIC minicomputer! I've coded BASIC since I was 6, so a DIY kit seemed like fun. I didn't plan on putting this on YouTube, but a few people showed interest - and then (spoiler alert) a wild announcement came along just as I was making the final fixes.
Amiga Samplers (technical) - FutureSound / Master Sound / Stereo Master debuglive 2020-02-07 | A technical look at 2 cheap Amiga 8-bit samplers from MicroDeal - in comparison to an earlier FutureSound model. What was the included software like? Was it usable?! Plus technical issues and sound comparisons. This is part 1 of 3. (Later parts will look at the high quality offerings!)
Amiga Samplers : Budget dance music in 1990 debuglive 2020-01-31 | An Amiga 500, Stereo Master and handful of $1 records from a 1990 Sunday market: Can we make a dance track on a budget home computer? Of course! Back when big-name dance tunes required big-budget-gear, a secondhand Amiga let you take the first steps to making a dance-floor banger.
Syntax Demoparty - 2019 Wild Compo (Full cap) debuglive 2019-11-11 | (Times for entries below) Filmed by Aday. I guess we're kinda known as the loose-units of the demoscene down here in Oz! Our Wild compo is "anything goes" which sometimes leads to super planned entries, but a lot of the time it's just fun creative entries put together the week before or at the party. It's also long been a launch pad for issues of Commodore 64 Vandalism News Diskmag. This isn't all the entries (sorry if we missed ya!) but will bring that familiar Saturday night vibe to a bunch of our scener friends who couldn't make it.0:00 OSCyLATE Visually! - Oscilloscope Demo - Retrovertigo & TrinaryLogic3:22 low tech eye candy - OHP & Video Feedback- andrew & phil9:30 _________ (What Even Is That Thing?) - PC Game- Sumaleth, SunraHeadgear & Tanngnost12:12 NiGHTMARE LAB - Doom WAD of Venue- The Grande Pricks (Pselodux + cTrix)15:13 Vandalism News #70 Launch - C64 Diskmag- Onslaught & Offence20:08 Unsure - Chemical and Gas live act- Yeff24:10 Metal detector - Hardware re-purpose fun- Ant

cTrix - Sega Genesis / Megadrive - 2019 - Live (dark) experimental show w/ surround viz debuglive 2019-08-10 | Track list below. 1 x Sega Genesis (NTSC) using the inbuilt FM audio chip. 6 x new dark tunes created for Digital Underground Fest. Performing from a 27C322 EPROM cart (for fun!) and audio from the Sega headphone socket into reverb / EQ. Composed in deflemask. More experimental than my usual - but don't worry - more dance tunes are coming; I just needed a break!Live viz across 5 projectors (Maggies Art Space, Collingwood) by Ravestabber.00:10 - FM Overture01:18 - Track 1 (untitled)08:02 - Pick-up-sticks11:16 - Ghost-werk13:55 - Channel 319:11 - Channel 3 (drop!)20:16 - Hyper Dubbed23:48 - Spaceship SSG-EGAll tracks are work-in-progress (created in deflemask) and some may be released in the future. The performance cartridge has loop points, but I might release the tracks as a single Sega cartridge at some point and have a test version working (complete with artwork).Plz Note: web camera didn't record audio, dropped frames - so sync was a bit of a mystery but is edited to look approx right. Massive thanks to Oskr for his mad 280 degree wall mapped lo-fi viz.
RetroPlug VSTi - Beta Launch (Gameboy Emulator VSTi) debuglive 2019-07-01 | Tommitytom, developer of RetroPlug, has a chat and demonstrates the new VSTi plugin (under development). RetroPlug is designed to host mGB / LSDJ in an emulation session with full ArduinoBoy compatibility. What does this mean? It means you can test your sets and manage your tunes easily in emulation within a DAW, but break out the real hardware (and write real SAV files for carts) for shows!RetroPlug also runs as a standalone app for 2xLSDJ link opportunities with additional keyboard support and copy and paste between sessions.Note: This is not designed as a "gameboy sounds" VSTi. It is specifically for people who MIDI trigger external Gameboys in their setup but be want to be able to test & manage without pulling out the hardware.

Gameboy vs Tape. Recording lo-fi digital with an analogue 8-track studio (w/ dot.ay) debuglive 2019-02-23 | Take 5 original Gameboys and record them using 1960s - 1980s recording tech. Will it fail or succeed? This is a mini documentary about mixing the harshest of digital bass music with the smoothest of analogue.Credits: Filmed by cTrix 2019, music by dot.ay, recorded at Sound Recordings (Castlemaine, Australia), also ft. TFATFJ (aka Warwick). EugeneNotes: Filmed on a Canon EOS-R w/ Tamaron 24-70 mm. Please note we only intended it to take photos; not video! But once we were in the session we decided to shoot this video for you. The occasional clicking noise is the focusing / stabilizing mechanism of the lens (first time I'd used it). The additional interviews shot on an Sony F5 + 30mm at 4k.We cut a bunch of parts out; but it's still quite long. Thanks for watching if you made it to the end! We wanted to invite people who have not experienced a full analogue studio to hear some of the conversations and feel as if they were in the session. Hopefully it brought you to our session! (complete with thunderstorm) The finished release is available at cheapbeatsmusic.bandcamp.comFor more information on the Melbourne Chip scene, come hang out at Bar SK at the Melbourne Chiptune Academy and faceboook "Retrotastic" for a local party happening very soon ;-)

Roland PMA-5 - Pocket touchscreen Sequencer - Mid 1990s era debuglive 2018-04-01 | The final track is at 9:12 (from line input w/ slight mastering)This is a (crazy) pocket sequencer that runs on 6 AA batteries and has full MIDI I/O! I decided to see what I could make on it using nothing but itself (as it's recommended to plug an "external keyboard" into it) I attempted something with more of a modern electronic tip as it does have the GS sound set meaning extra drums, extra instruments and reverb / chorus effects :-) I thought I'd upload 10 minutes of the 11 - 12 hours it took me to make this little tune and so you can see some of the amusing frustrations along the way. It's by no means a full guide... just a little observational "pocket music" experience video.Apologies for the occasional language - it was 1am by this point.
Teledildonix live at Square Sounds Melbourne 2018 [whole show] [renoise tracker] debuglive 2018-03-03 | 0F.digital and TFATFJ collab to bring you the most hyped up show of 2018! (in their first ever live appearance). The tracks were kept so secret that even the organizers hadn't heard more than a snippit. Album at teledildonix.bandcamp.com/releasescTrix on hype duty & additional video elements. Aday on additional visuals on tracks 2 + 3. 0F.digital on visuals for last 3 tracks. Thanks to the incredibly supportive and slightly confused audience that brought the house down!Square Sounds (Melbourne + Tokyo) is a music festival that celebrates chiptune and electronic music. Following in the footsteps of Blip Festival, it has a strong focus on visual artists and prides itself in a super varied line up.Additional creds to Chris Cunningham - plz forgive us for the aphex clip mod - we just couldn't think of a better hype clip to kick off! Composed in Renoise tracker. Give in to your impulses. Give in to play. Give in to the sounds of Teledildonix. (ps. can't believe we actually got away with this....)
Elektron Digitakt - Live House techno Jam - cTrix debuglive 2018-01-14 | A fun little box from Elektron. 8-channel sampler with a live mode and some great internal effects. This is a track I made using just the internal sounds out-of-the-box to see what it could do. Personally, I think it could do with some more layers - hoping to add a desktop poly to use the MIDI outs in the future. Am also planning on loading it up with sounds in the near future.

cTrix - Live at Workers Club - Wednesday 16th Nov 2016 (Amiga 600) debuglive 2016-11-21 | Jamatar shot a bunch of stuff at my last lil Melbourne show - I played a bunch of new Amiga tracks so thought I'd put 'em up here as a preview! It's hard knowing how this is going to pull into an album - every track is totally different. All running in 4 voice Protracker from 1992 (stock). Should mention first track is a remix of Fearofdark, second has samples from an old 80's VHS ident, and the acid track has a CC music factory arcapella in it! (It's an Amiga after all... you gotta sample with it! ;-)

(Only 2nd week of dev) Still having a few issues with hardware envelopes - they worked in assembler when I kept things simple - but get lost in translation from a YM source even though I can see the registers in the code. All part of the fun - I hope to have it working soon! This is simply a work-in-progress.

Update: Ferris did a little video with more info about the tracker at : youtube.com/watch?v=FNDZSbLdzrs Ps. for those asking; we decided to keep this an internal Elix tool as someone else is making a tool that is far more advanced than this. It hit the point where it needed a rewrite to keep running in a modern OS environment. It's running in Windows XP in this demo.
