Best one or two channel tunes
Which are your favourite tunes that don't use all of the channels?
I'm sure everyone is familiar with subtunes 4 and 5 of RoboCop 3 by Jeroen Tel, which both are one channel tunes. Also, 4-Mat has done some really nice work on Warpzone, subtunes 2, 3, 5 and 7.
As for two channel tunes, I find zabutom's Robot Sharks from Hell excellent.
Any more?
Edit: Wrong subtune numbers for Robocop 3, fixed it. |

The bonus run tune from Wizball (tune 5 in the SID file) and the "stand idle" tune from Microprose Soccer (tune 6 in the "outdoor" SID fle, tune 9 in the "indoor" but they're not identical sound-wise) are single channel tunes by Galway that i've always liked.
And i have to mention the music in Turbocharge by... well, Cosine really, under the Sonix Systems label - the in-game tunes (tunes 2 to 6 in the SID file) are all two channel jobs. =-) |

one channel music by aleksi eeben. btw, what i've realized with everything one channel: you can crank the volume up very high, as the frequencies on the speaker diaphragm do not interfer as they would with multichannel tunes / normal music = the speaker has more time/space to vibrate. if you crank it full up it will distort, but still sound more like an effect to it than destroying the music. (very useful for high volume one channel ringtones ;) |

excellent thread to follow, hope you guys come up with more.
I'm wondering though.. is there a way to tell (other then by ear) how many channels are playing in sidplay for instance? |

Nope, but 1992 SIDPLAY 1 had D4xx display to see the SID working :) |
