Hello there:

Fisrt, GRG, I tested your MyMidi with Datel, all went OK, well, I had to change the colors on my SX64 to read the configuration screen at the begining.

Second, I have a nice collection of midi interfaces (Datel, Steinberg, Syntech, Sequential CIrcuits...) and some midi Software, the one i´m most proud of it is "PRO 16" from Steinberg, which works sweet for sequencing MIDI stuff, and has that tight timing we all love. I also have the Syntech, the KCS software for the C64 and some others, if anyone wanna trade just contact me.

Implementing MIDI for recording/editing in SDI will be a nice gift for some of us I guess...

Cheers

Alex

well rainbird was part of telecom soft (BT) ..

http://www.birdsanctuary.co.uk/

I do remember the sound studio thing, it used the music maker overlay keyboard. I remember the cover of it, had a reel to reel tape deck on etc. It was pretty rubbish to be honest, you could use the sid to make sounds, but it was crude, just basic wave forms, sawtooth etc.

as for the sample(?) , u mean the sampler? that and the sound expander both had the same cartridge interface, well looked the same. just the sampler thing had a input to the 5 pin din socket and also had an input for a mic.. if memory serves.. I sold mine and wish I hadn't.

Toy used the commodore sound sampler for this demo >

Moonscape

There is a program someone made which was a 3rd party thing for it for sampling, maybe its on here. I think he used that to put the sound in the demo, it wasn't an offical commodore program.

As for sampling, probably the best known thing I think of
is Micro Rhythm and + (both budget/firebird things) . was interesting interview with simon pick about them on lemon.

I have some MIDI sequencer software from Dr. T. too. It's on an original disk and I don't remember if it works or not, but at least it exists. :)

Quote: Check Midislave Manager V1.1.
It also includes its sourcecode.


Hello, I'm interested in taking a look at this source code. Is it in the d64 file (I couldn't find it) or is it elsewhere?

PS Can anyone upload the Datel MIDI 64 software? I have the cartridge (works great with M64, midislave) but it didn't come with the Datel software!

PPS Ok, I think the midislave pseudo source code is here:

I've added an extra D64 of Midislave 1.1 including the sources.

I wonder.. Is it possible to use a cartridge expander which allows me to use a midi interface cart. and a mmc/retro replay cart. at the same time ? I want to be able to fastload and fastsave stuff in a midi editor, have access to a midi deviuce (ie. keyboard etc. ) and also have ethernet connection to my pc at the same time.

There might be register conflicts here as most midi interfaces use the $dexx registers... and so does the
action replay's or retro replays..

But, if you got the FB-MIDI card you have a switch
that toggle between using $dexx or $dfxx page registers.

Anyone with ideas or have experience with this ?

Isn't switching between $dexx and $dfxx just a matter of jumping between two pins at the port?
If so, you could easily mod any interface to the wanted address by just rerouting the pin.
And you should of course take care of the software... but hey, that's obvious :)

Anyone own or built the "Maplin" midi cartridge ?

Anyone have the register layout for the C-Lab midi interface ?

Just to not start a new thread: I found an original copy of Joreth Music Composer System here. Serial #117. It doesn't seem to be around anymore.

The disk is corrupt, but if there are any MIDI-horny disk doctors out there, I can send it to you.
