[Coco] Some music playing on an MC-10 with the YM2149.

[Bill Pierce]

Ed, I LIKE that idea!!
An 8 ADC would allow sampling for sounds to be used in games. It beats using the 6-bit joyports for sampling.
I could do a lot with a card like that. I'm actaully working on a couple of things for sound & music in OS9 right now :-)
Between your Orch90 card and Jayeson's MIDI card, there has been a lot of intrest in Coco music lately :-)
Personally, I've always been into Coco music, it's why I bought a Coco to start with. I paid $69 for a Coco 2 (16k CB) and $79 for the Orch90 in either late 84 or early 85 (can't remember) with the idea I could use the Coco as a song writing tool, which I did up until 99 when my Coco 3 got flooded. I went from "Orch90", to "Musica II" (briefly), to "Bells & Whistles II", to "Lyra" (8 voice MIDI), and eventually to "Ultimuse3" (OS9, 16 voice MIDI).

That’s an interesting idea Bill.  Maybe dual 8-bit ADCs for sampling too?  That idea has been bouncingaround in my head for a while…  :)- Ed> On Sep 2, 2016, at 5:03 AM, Bill Pierce via Coco <coco at maltedmedia.com> wrote:> > Ed, what would be nice is this board built into your orch90 board (for the Coco), then you could have either one available...
