Synth Music Test

[Rbz]

As you know, I'm working on a music player using gm.dls samples, and here a first preview, no gfx added sorry.

I'm not a musician, so there's only two pages of "music" and no sound effects added yet.
Packed with crinkler 1.0a

Please tell me if it work Ok for you.

Works here.  I could listen to that for hours

[benny!]

Works fine here, too. Good work!

[taj]

Works here xp, sp2 Rbraz.

But I can hear noise in there (crackling) and I dont think its a volume problem so maybe you arent clearing the sound buffers to zero before using them? Just a guess.

Worked for me too

Nice Bassline! hehe, is this for use in 4kbs?

[slippy]

that one's really cool regarding the filesize  

btw. works for me either Win Vista AMD XP 5200

[Rbz]

Thanks dudes

... is this for use in 4kbs?

Yes, is my intention to use it for 4kb prods in the near future 

...But I can hear noise in there (crackling) and I dont think its a volume problem so maybe you arent clearing the sound buffers to zero before using them? Just a guess.

Very weird, I'm clearing (ZeroMemory) all buffers used, just to make sure the problem isn't with volume I have attached one version with low volume for you to test.

nice one rbraz!

works fine without distorsions here mate 

[taj]

Rbraz, distortionson first one, tested on two platforms, but second one is clear. It must be a volume thing. So problem solved but I have bad news. I ran the first one you posted several times and once it failed to play anything. It may be rare but you should know just incase it happens on a compo machine.

BTW Im going to Riverwash 2007 and they take remote entries, they have 4k and 256b so if you want to submit something, I could represent you and make sure it runs on compo machine etc.

Thanks Chris, I'll check it again, you know, when we code those tiny prods we always compromise (hack)  a lot so it's not a surprise if it stop working on some PC config. , I can live with that 

About Riverwash, sounds cool, if I can find some free time (and inspiration) to work on a tinyprod  I'll contact you for sure 

[Shockwave]

I think I will be entering something at riverwash for S!P, I need to get on Nuke's case to grab some media for it...

@Chris:

That's a nice offer, Chris. Thanks a lot. I'll will keep that in mind. Maybe I can finish something to
release there. Though, I never heard about riverwash and looking at its amount of competitions
I hope there will be enough entries at all ( e.g. splitting up 4k-comp into 2 sub categories .. )

This Riverwash first year because Symphony has closed down. This is the only real Polish demoparty now.
I worry only that there wont be enough newskool entries as Poland is a bit hard core. However rumour is that
ps, dipswitch, sirgarbage, preacher and a few others are going to be there. It could go either way...I think with
remote entries it could attract entires from America or even Japan.

[benny!]

@Chris:

True .. sounds really interesting. Looking forward to see the entries, too.

[Rbz]

Ok, I have decided to enter this party, probably it's my best chance to enter in one demo party because there's no one near to me.

I guess that 03 months is enough for me to make a prod and it will be 4kb 

[benny!]

Cool. Looking forward to it. I am still undecided if I can enter. Atm I am quite
busy. But will see ...

[Rbz]

Not sure if I will have time to enter riverwash, I've spent too much time on this 4k music player, but finally I've something usable, and I'm really proud about it

About the music, hmmm  , this is what happen when you give the right tool to the real musician, and this is just a music test !

Music by: daxx

[va!n]

@rbraz and daxx:
very nice intro and very nice tune! 

[Shockwave]

Excellent! and i see there is some more space left to turn it into a nice 4kb too! 

[benny!]

Awesome stuff.

@rbraz:
cool coding and very impressive to see what how far you pushed your tiny music player. lots
of bytes left to finish a 4kb !!!


@daxx:
very good music. this kind of music I really do like. congratulations!
