are proud to present their first 4K co-op demo called
" 4musiK "
for Atari Falcon 030, 14 Mb.
Code ................ : Thadoss / Dune
Music ............... : Dma-Sc / Sector One
Requirements:
-------------
- An Atari Falcon 030 with at least 14 Mb of RAM
- At least 4096 bytes of floppy or hard disk space ;)
- No FPU or accelerated board needed
Feel the power of the standard 16 Mhz falcon!
This demo runs on both RGB and VGA screens,
but it runs better on an RGB monitor.
History:
--------
At the beginning of september, I woke up and realized
that I hadn't started to code anything for the
SillyVenture yet.
Since a long time, I wanted to make a falcon 4K demo
with music, as they do on PC or Amiga.
So now, after two months of work, here it is!
Technical details:
------------------
This demo is 100% 68030 assembler code + DSP code.
There's no FPU code.
The software samples synthesizer uses the code of Cinter4,
an Amiga sound synthesizer developped by Aske Simon
Christensen (aka Blueberry).
The module replay routine uses both the 68030 & DSP code.
- The DSP code uses automodified code to reduce the size.
- The 68030 replay routine only allows use of the volume
effect on the tracker module file. All other effects
have been removed for memory optimisation.
I used PackFire 1.2k by hitchhikr/Neural to compress.
The original unpacked PRG takes 17642 bytes all included
(music patterns, samples definition, code & datas).
Music details:
--------------
It was fun playing with Cinter synthesis, trying to get
some interesting sounding instruments from its various
parameters.
It reminded me of FM synthesis, but less complicated.
In the end you can create some pretty 80's sounding
synth instruments. And even make it rougher by adding
some distortion.
Also creating noise from ultra-modulated frequencies,
is quite like jumping over a border. ;)
