Stupid Hardrestart...
A question to all msx-player coders.
Why 99% of all players have a completely worse hardrestart???
I only know a few (not more than 5) which owns a really HARD = good sound-restart.
With every other player it's impossible to create modern/up-to-date instruments.
I think there are some nice editors (with nice interfaces) out there, but the completely outdated hardrestart destroys everything. :(
So, any explanation for this? |

did you ever take a minute and question your own attitude?
(tho, this is nitpicking, anything might count concerning this matter. =) |

Check out Reeds latest tunes (the ones from Boogie Factor, for example) and then reconsider, please. Doesn't sound as if it's coming from an "extremely limited" player. |

And Aleksi's latest too. I wish there were more tunes like "Second Steps" released. It doesn't sound a slightest bit oldskool, it's fresh, up to date, newstyle, whichever description suits you best. |

@Laxity: I never remember them right, so you'd better look up in the docs. At least one method was based on putting $FF to sustain/release register. Furthermore, (in ATMDS) they're configurable in the sense of how much time there is between the HR frames.
Btw. duration-based editors will always be superior in freedom they offer. And isn't Sosperec duration based? :)

Surprisingly not every Cane & DOS tune was composed in the sosperec editor.... :)
I guess they used Chubrocker. It's easy to recognize these songs since the quality of the instruments is (in comparison to sosperec) quite low. :P

Anyway, polished sounds are a MUST for me.
I attached here 3 examples to show what can be done with GOOD hardrestart:
Example1:
- Listen to the 'polished' drums. (Uses hardrestart)
- Arpeggios doesn't use hardrestart
Example2:
- Every instrument uses hardrestart
Example2:
- For the bass sound I disabled the whole hardrestart.

@jeff
Yes I agree! A combination of both makes it sound cool! (no hardrestart & hardrestart)
However, it's nothing special to do cool musics without hardrestart. (bug free)
The only thing to remember: Careful usage of ADSR values. :) |

Yes, but it has a lot limitations that I don't like.

Maybe the heart of the matter is: why go around badmouthing editors of the past (with obviously limited features), why reveal how intolerant & limited your taste is, why not just stick to the editors you like and make the music you like :) |
