Again some old #Commodore64 #SidChip experiments, this time demonstrating the #MSSIAH cartidge and its software made to mimic early 1980 studio hardware. The cartridge has #midi in port, bundles a "bassline" app looking like a roland #TB303 , and also that "monosynth" app that looks like more a #minimoog -like analog mono synth. The thing is, the SID chip is actually exactly that ! (SID actually allow to use one voice as a LFO for another, astounding rarely used feature) and all the knobs here are literally the values you #poke into SID. Yes, really. Also, this was filmed with a 15€ CCTV fisheye PAL camera, that I'm used to #genlock with my #Amiga .

Testing the #C64 #Commodore64 #Kerberos cartidge in #midi mode with the fabulous #SidWizard tracker ( Best tracker ever done, whatever is the platform. ) and a nifty keyboard... changing the instrument on the keyboard change the current edited instrument, note on note off , portamento, are well supported. You can play when the tracker plays or not, affect the same voice or make it turn. Then per instrument you program the envelope and the famous analog filter of the sid. An alternative to #mssiah midi cartridge I may prefer: the interaction with the tracker open many possibilities. ( the arpegio system is fabulous on sidwizard. )

Geek Midi trick: piloting notes on the fabulous #Commodore64 #SID chip sound of a real #C64 as a synthesiser, with a #TB303 clone , throught the #MSSIAH cartridge and software. Keep in mind C64 is a 1982 technology and TB303 is 1983.

A wild #MSSIAH appears! (Which is a C64 MIDI sequencer cartridge, nothing religious, well maybe it is bordering on something religious for certain people. 😅) #C64 #MIDI #Commodore #ChipTunes #SID

Happy to report that I just ordered a #Mssiah cartridge to be able to use the #EVO64 in a MIDI/DAW setup. SID noise music experiments on the horizon! :D https://www.mssiah.com #C64 #Commodore64 #RetroComputing #VintageComputing #ChipTunes
