Yeah that's cool. Haven't seen a C64 Educator before.
The blackout at 3:48 reminds me of when I was wiring up an Amiga (or was it C128?) PSU connector on holiday in a static caravan a few years back.
Had too much wine and ended up mixing up the from<>to pin direction.
The result being something like 9V AC shorting to 5V DC, which blew the power to half the campsite!
I just acted innocently and rang reception to report a power loss and they made it right half hour later.

File selector box look
Been doing a lot of work across all my music programs, and it got late last night when something looked off:
This morning I checked and found out why the File selector looks weird in Sound Chip Synth:
File selector in EmuTOS 1.0.prg:
File selector in EmuTOS snapshot.prg:
I really wasn't looking for this. I was trying to figure out why my sample was 3Hz flat at 437 for a concert A
As you can see, originally the file selector is nested inside the main window of the program.

Re: File selector box look
It's not really nested. They've just moved the OK and Cancel buttons to the bottom, making it taller.Cosmic Puppet wrote: ↑Fri Nov 05, 2021 12:01 pm As you can see, originally the file selector is nested inside the main window of the program.

Re: File selector box look
By nested, I meant that the file selector is not normally outside the program window of the Sound Chip Synth program.derkom wrote: ↑Fri Nov 05, 2021 2:33 pmIt's not really nested.

On reflection I get what you mean.

Re: The Cosmic Puppet's Universe.
Created a 12 page PDF showing the steps/settings needed to get a usable YM2149F sample from Sound Chip Synth, which can then be played on a keyboard.

Deskpic.
Since I can't use Deskpic because the associated ACC component pees Notator off. I got to thinking, why isn't there a program that displays monochrome images as good as this program that can just be run from a .PRG file. Sol-38 impressed me colour pic wise and I have that on my Game/Demo SD set up, but I haven't found anything as good as deskpic for monochrome .IMG files.
Is there not a simple program out there that will fullfil this task without needing to load into RAM?

Re: The Cosmic Puppet's Universe.
If you put "deskpic" in the utils search loads come up..
https://exxosforum.co.uk/atari/PDL/FLOPPYSHOP/index.htm
I'm sure there are loads of other programs which do it as well under different names.
