  • I don't know why, but there is a gloomy "goht in the machine" type of sound that the commodore vic-20 makes, which the C64 does not have. so to me, the vic-20 has very desirable sound properties even if it can only do square wavs and noise. It has its own thing going nonetheless.

  • @OBSysteme A lot of the characteristic VIC-20 sound comes from the fixed 1600 Hz low-pass filter that smooths down all the waveforms. It is possible to simulate this on SID with a proper filter setup, but I'm not sure if SID can ever get close enough. A "perfect low-fi soundchip", in my opinion, would probably be something like SID but with some VIC-I-like "enhancements" that make it sound harsher and thicker.

  • Haha brilliant Viznut! Did you see the Orb VIC demo at Sundown?

  • I wasn't at Sundown, but I have watched the demo a couple of times with my own VIC :) Great stuff.

  • You coming to Breakpoint?

  • Not quite sure yet, but it's quite probably. The last time I visited non-Finnish parties was 2004.

  • @OBSysteme goht = ghost

  • Love your productions man! Awesome Awsome stuff! Keep up the good work!

  • And YouTubes horrible encoding to boot!

    ...

    Mirroring this to DailyMotion is going to suck, baaad. =|

  • Oops ... I always happen to mix those 2 up, namewise.

  • I have to crack up at the fact that there's fisheye in the raycaster (yes, it's a ray*caster*, not a ray*tracer*, they're different - raytracers are per-pixel whereas raycasters tend to be per-vertical-line) but I still reckon this is amazing.

    Although pi is 3.141592653589793238462643*383­27...*, not *25...*... a few more iterations could have patched this.

  • truly amazing!!
