finally got some SN76489 chips in the post! Breadboarded up this badboy.
My only issue so far is the tuning is out. I'm using a 1.8Mhz osc but everything is a good step and a half out.
Would it be easier to mess with the pitch tables or look for a different oscillator?

Topic: Chip on TV (1 replies, posted in General Discussion)
At the last gig I organised the local station S4C caught wind and came and filmed a bunch of stuff. Which was pretty cool.
It's on the channels catch up service here: http://www.s4c.co.uk/clic/e_level2.shtm … =508551781
Be warned, its in Welsh, you need to click the english subtitles on. Also if you are not in the UK you'll need a proxy or something.
Pretty neat though and while it was very much a 5 min overview of what we were up to, every little helps spread the chip word!
Footage is mostly of Tommy Creep and myself (Alone). They couldn't use any sound due to copyright issues 
Still!
Need to find more Wales based artists too so we can party more

I got the crystals from RS Online Uk, and sourced the SN chips from eBay... Though I may purchase some more with Little-Scales noted failure rate!
Oddly I couldn't find one supplier of Teensy boards in the UK.

wow.. thats sure grown..
Just a thought but an 'active' or 'inactive' field may be useful as I saw a few artists I know are no longer in the bizz.

I'm gunna second this question. I want to add myself, but apart from the fact that I have a feeling I'd end up messing it up somehow, I'm also not sure if I qualify to go on the list.
I'd say go for it, as long as you have the links and fill the fields like everyone else.. its hard to go wrong with Google sheets, though a google form that inputs to it may make things a little easier for people intimidated by data.
As for organising the form, just click on the tops of column and you can sort by A - Z or Z to A...
