Longest sample?
So who has managed to pack the longest sample into the C64? Has anyone implemented realtime playback of packed data? Macbeth/PSW invented a simple delta packer (0/10/11 for no change/down one/up one), but I think he only implemented it on the SuperCPU.
Hmm, since there's an obvious tradeoff between quality and size, I guess you'd have to count the number of samples, and not the number of seconds...

Using samples loaded from only 1 disk side (170 KB), isn't it possible to get like a minute of unmixed samples @5kHz? (4-bit) |

Street Tuff did this horrific piece too: Calling Earth

I'd vote for Turrican, too!
Due to its sheer size it must be a 2-bit-sample, I guess JT just did a really fine job in "hiding" the roughness of it by using a really rough sounding voice! ;-)
Has anyone ever tried a lookup-table based approach a la µ-law on the c64 yet? Like that you should be able to squeeze an 8-bit sample into 4 bits easily! ;-) |
