O Cara Mia, Addio (Turret Opera) on Floppy Drive
Loading...
Uploaded by Sammy1Am on Nov 6, 2011
(MUSICAL SPOILER ALERT!) The Turret Opera from the end of Portal 2.
As suggested by @DerAssAssinenMetzger.
Based on an arrangement by the talented Sebastian Wolff. Check out his website ( http://sebastianwolff.info/ ) or his YouTube channel ( http://www.youtube.com/germanseabass ) for all sorts of cool video game and movie covers!
The software this creation is based off of is open source and available here: https://github.com/SammyIAm/Moppy
Tutorial video here:

I'd love idea for new songs to perform (or even original pieces if any of you are composing-inclined); if you have any leave 'em in the comments or message me. A word of forewarning though, not everything works well on floppy drives (they're pretty finicky as far as musical instruments go), so while I will consider every one of your suggestions, not all of them end up making good music.

SCIENCE
-
this is what the defective turrets would have sounded like... but its still beautiful
-
If my computer starting making this sounds, I wouldn't even be mad when it would start to smoke.
-
I always wondered what happened to floppy drives when they became obsolete once flash drives replaced them. nice to see that they're doing ok.

Hmm, I think the floppies would handle part of Want You Gone pretty well.

Is it easy to do this?
TheCJiK 2 weeks ago
@TheCJiK Yes-ish. =P I've got a tutorial video (link in the doobly-doo), and there's no complicated skills required to get things going. That doesn't mean you won't run into a snag here or there, but at least half a dozen people have got it working without too much trouble.

you need a 5,25" or a 8" discdrive for the bas part :)

@mikgus I did a quick search, and 8" drives cost like $400 now! I suppose no one really makes them any more, so they've become very rare. (I'm keeping my eyes peeled for a 5.25" though)
