Brandenburg on a SID

I decided to connect up a MOS 6581 to an ATmega8 microcontroller. This is the result.

There is more information (schematic, C source, etc) at

Nice! How many tracks did you use?

I have an NES break in a song I am putting on my next album (I had to blow an EPROM and record the output of the NES on the 2-track, to use an emulator would be cheating >:D!)

hah nice!

I ended up recording seven tracks in total.

That triangle wave is my favorite to play with on my c64.... It can be ring modulated.... fun stuff

The SPC700 is a great little chip. It's a 16-bit digital sampling synthesizer and 8-bit CPU in one.

Made in 1984 week 34 I'd say. Nice work. My favourite composer.

I'm breath-less....

Well done, really. Great work.

[knuxthefox]

that's fantastic use of the SID's 3 channels. I would love to see, someday, someone put the soundchip of the SNES to work.
