so much thanks for you

bumping this thread to maybe spur some new developments. nick maynard and i were talking about using Vegaplay to play back vrc6 songs. has anyone modified vegaplay to successfully play back nsfs with dpcm or expansion channels?

oh this is so cool, no carrier your programming always makes me so happy, thank you.

Yeah, I should be doing more - with more emphasis on sound. Not sure when!

I'll be sure to post them.

the link for the NES sound video didn't work, but then i found this page - http://socialmovement.org/playpower/TUTORIALS/

i really want to learn how to make nintendo programs so these are seriously exactly what i've been looking for. thank you. for my first little project, i made a rom where each button on the controller plays a different tone. next step, make them play different tones on different channels. maybe the buttons could trigger 3 note chords?

anyways, this is excellent. do you have plans to do more?

Also, bombjack took down TONS of good books - wonder why? Copyright? Doubt it! Maybe bandwidth?

Nick - all of the PlayPower videos I did are here: http://work.playpower.org/w/page/241223 … -Tutorials

i wanted to download this book again but the link's dead. anyways, i thought i'd post this other link for it that i found - http://megaupload.com/?d=09D5VYLI

also, those playpower tutorial videos you posted are excellent. did you ever do other ones than these - http://vimeo.com/channels/playpower ?

you don't need to download anything, really, just go to chat.mibbit.com, choose Esper as the server, #chipmusic as the channel, and give yourself a nickname.

i've actually never really used IRC before. what program do you use?

That book is really, really good. Glad you dig it, man.

I'd be happy to help you figure it out, but like I said - I think IRC or AIM is better than a message board. Do you ever go on #chipmusic?

i'm about 30 pages in to that second link right now. thank you so much for posting it. i've been wanting to learn about this stuff for a while but didn't know how to start. very awesome.

i'll try to figure it out on my own for a while and then post back here with what i've figured out. thanks again!

That's very possible. Do some reading up on 6502 assembly and starting looking through the code, which is commented. When I have some time we can meet on IRC and I can show you how to do it.

Look at these books here: http://www.bombjack.org/commodore/books … Y_LANGUAGE

Specifically, this one: http://www.bombjack.org/commodore/books … e_6502.pdf

i wanted to bump this to ask a question.

first of all, vegaplay is amazing. but i'm curious, is there a way to not have the songs play automatically? like, you have to hit A to make them play?

i have a project i'm doing now and this would be a perfect way to play the songs i have but i'd like to have a way to make the song stop, then choose another song, and then hit play, when the moment is right.

is there any way to do that with vegaplay or is there another solution anyone can recommend? thanks!
