CRAZY THING !!

In his article, Denis Bonfield says that it could reach a 5.5 Khz sampling rate (and even a maximum 13Khz).
And that his program was mostly written in BASIC :-O stunning.
He says that his program is joined to his article and that it allows to sample, and edit sample .. but apparently not to replay.
Weird ...
Anyway this was a very interesting article .. thank you for sharing.

They should have samples from Monty Python, Star Trek etc.

I think there are 2 disks. The first works but the second has errors in the loader prog (DEMO.) It's not too hard to debug it.

The One with the Mask samples is the same type, so I think were by Stephen Meachen.
I found these earlier today, looking for way to play samples...

All these disks with samples, none of the programs seem to do anything, at least not in the Oricutron web emulator (where sound and everything else works...).

DEMO is also not doing anything. The files S21 etc.. run, but no sound, nothing happening?

They work OK for me - just checked again. Some of the disks need you to type RUN. Check your sound is configured properly and works with the usual sound commands. If you list the DEMO prog you'll see how to load up individual sounds, load the code to play them and use the CALL command to trigger it.

Thanks for making me aware of this thread! I hadn't found it yet. The Twilighte disks work for me in JOric, as long as the URL uses http rather than https (due to the cert error). For example:

https://oric.games/?url=http://twilighte.oric.org/twinew/oricsoft/sfx0139.zip

...then type:

DEMO

...then:

RUN

Remember to unmute the sound though, as in JOric, it is initially muted (due to browser API rules).

Lots of really cool samples to test out from this thread:

GROOVE.tap
WELCOME.tap
ONESTEP.tap
FREAK.tap

Thanks again!

Those disk-sounds library is amazing! But then, I'm guessing the source code is all lost? A pity as there was so much -

I'm guessing the source to al these are all lost? - https://twilighte.oric.org/twinew/sampleplayers.htm
Or does anyone the code those 4-bit or 8-bit player, or even the one used on the DISK?


I find that joric web emulator is better for the sound than the oricutron on web that gives quite a bit more distorted sounds.

Even my ymplay.tap that I posted playing with your generated music sounds "ok".
