The Spectrum was a fast machine for its time with the Z80 over the 6502 used in other machines. Its ashame that Sinclair did not include a decent graphics chip instead of the crappy ULA, and decent sound chip from the get-go.
Was this done on the 1 channel original beeper??? or was it done on the AY chip? I'm looking to see a demo of someone programming the original ZX to make impressive sounds lol
There are plenty of impressive sounds already on the beeper. Never heard the tunes in games like for example Dark Fusion, Agent X 2, Raw Recruit or Chronos? Look those up here (together with "Spectrum" in the search query) on YouTube. Also stuff made by Mr Beep, e.g. "Cosmic Escape"
nice track except two demo effects from future crew)
