There's too much here already, and specially gaming, derails from the site's focus. You can talk about that in General Discussion.

Or go to chip coalition tongue

I'm not really sure this place should have gaming coverage, it derails everything hmm. In any case it should go in GENERAL DISCUSSION.

In any case, if you have an A4000, I suppose you have a hard drive, and you should go here: http://www.whdownload.com/
HD installed games (by means of the AWESOME WHDLoad, which you should register now) that run well on your machine. You will have problems with floppy software, specially old games (before 1992 and some after that too). And who teh hell wants to use dying floppies anyway?

My favourite Amiga-exclusive games are Turrican 2, Mr. Nutz (not like teh poopy console versions, a totally different game), Kid Chaos, Alien Breed Special Edition '92, Arcade Pool, Disposable Hero, Lotus Turbo Challenge 2, Skidmarks 2, and a special vote for Jetstrike, a truly remarkable and usually underapreciated game (nice one, Adam)

Aminet is a shareware/freeware repository, you won't find any of the commercial games there, but you will find most every tool you need to get your Amiga up and running. Keep it at hand.

Celsius, this thread inspired me to create something similar for a Midibox. Problem is, I have none xD
I will look into it, with the MIDI table of teh machine I should be able to create one. I'll keep you posted.

Celsius, you put me in a tough position: I got to love you for your kind comment (don't lie man!) and to hate you for your new purchase smile

Kinda late so if this reply is shit I will answer properly tomorrow.

Fuckjazz: I would recommend you Ninjatracker, John Player and Sid Duzz It. SDI is a bit (quite a bit) on the hard, cryptic sie, but it is the most powerful editor I can think of. John is userfriendly and with good features. Ninjatracker is sort of compatible with Goattracker.

If you want a baby tracker to get started use Cybertracker, the graphical interface will help you understand better the workings of the SID chip, but it's very limited for real use.

Ths soudns retarded, but get a copy (digital or printed) of teh C64 user's manual. The section about sound will explain you how the SID chip works. you need thsi basic knowledge to know how to create your instruments, since you will have to know what hex values work in which nibble of the byte you are modifying.


Celsius, I haven't had any experience with MIDIBOX SID units, but you surely can;t do exactly what you do in a tarcker with it, at least not in the same way. A lot of the effects the C64 trackers make are based on software stuff, like multispeed (makes no sense in a machine like midibox) and wavetables, which I don't know how you would implement in one of those. Since you can access every parameter by MIDI you supposedly can do as much, but I never tried.
I am not sure but I think there must be a Reaktor patch going around to tweak your midibosx sid to your heart's content.
Anotehr idea is for you to use REaktor. The tarcker interface will help you do, maybe, wavetable-like effects. The way I am working now, I Would try to sample the sounds, really, so I Don't need realtime generation of the instruments.

Mayeb Mr. Spastic can post here with his experince, he's had a midibox sid for a while now and he programs it and runs it as slave to an akai sampler.

Recent posts shows more than what I HAVE ALREADY READ.New posts shows me my unread ones only (since last visit or last "marked as read") wink

While we are at it, reduce that wait for new posts being made, 60 seconds is a torture, 15/20 seconds is enough.
