I only heard the first tune during the compo, but it was ace!

Oh yeah baby! Lovely dot screens and those Frequent YM sounds are more than delightful! Thanks!

*waves* So many things I would have liked to have improved in the intro part, but in the end, this one is about Frequent's music so let's just give it to the masses and relax. Run it on real hardware for the full experience. It prefers 2mb (1mb gets the playlist directly - space skips the intro too). At one point I had it running on a Falcon030 - if anyone's feeling adventurous please check that out. Sorry about the massive delay... Life.

Bottom line, Frequent and I both learned a lot of technique in our respective formats doing this - now on to the next one. Peace!

Sweet YM+STe electro tracks by Frequent
Also including a music/visual synchronized demo as intro, excellent!

I might be adventurous at some point. Not tonight, recovering from Monday.

Lovely gfx and sounds. All tunes are working here.

Excellent. I love tune #2 (Ymse)

Also, those dots!

How much cpu time does it take on average to play those tunes on STE?
rulez added on the 2025-07-09 04:43:28 by keops keops
@Keops

about 25-30%, sometimes less and sometimes closer to 40%. The intro tune takes about 10-12% Cpu

@Keops thanks for kind words!

The intro tune jumps a lot up and down in CPU usage tho - it's not a nice consistent 12% ;) So some extra work was needed for smooth framerate. Fairly blitter heavy in parts too, lots of span juggling to have interrupts arrive on time... Looking forward to spkr's symfx driver supporting DMA sounds!

And for trivia: I used that old trick you (!) once taught me running the effects off the vbl and the main rout as a background thread for preparing the next effect - so thanks for that - and screw busy waits :)

From the intro (startunnel looks marvelous) to the ziks, great prod!

It does check out as working on a Falcon. Real hardware.
added on the 2025-07-12 14:14:53 by CiH CiH
this is really good!
Finally, I already had doubts we will ever see this! :-) Love the spiral stars and the general stylishness of the intro. Regarding the music I think the contrast of clean samples and timer/detune based effects works great. After having running this in a loop for hours I can say that "YMSE", "problem" and "Hazmat" are my faves. Proper STELECTRO!
