Microspectral
microspectral by byteobserver A 256b x86 Linux ELF demo for Lovebyte 2021 This is a procedural music demo which feeds a bytebeat formula through the inverse Fast Fourier Transform (size 1024). A triangular window is applied to the frames and time is advanced by 512 samples each frame. To run: ./microspectral | aplay -fFLOAT_LE -r32768 Due to poor planning this was finished at the last minute, so it's rather quiet. This technique of music generation has a lot of potential which I had a hard time cramming into 256b. For example check out my earlier work using the same synthesis method: https://cndpoint.bandcamp.com/album/synthetic I think that with some more time spent on optimizing this, quite a few of the formulas from that recording could fit into 256b. Probably you could fit all of them into one big 512b intro. Greetings to all sizecoders!
