31336haxx0r Posted September 10, 2011 Share Posted September 10, 2011 I don't speak Polish, so I don't know what exactly this is about. Does that mean that the single GTIA sound output usually used for key clicks is used as an audio output via pulse width modulation or something? This is waht I ALWAYS dreamt of to do one day. Nice work! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bryan Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 Quick question... is there any advantage to doing this on GTIA vs. Pokey volume control (other than not using up a Pokey channel?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tezz Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 It's really done "because we can" and it's a cool underused feature It's CPU intensive so it limits it practical use. I'm using GTIA for the sound fx in MM with the four Pokey channels being used in the music. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm using GTIA for the sound fx in MM with the four Pokey channels being used in the music. That doesn't sound too limiting, if you can use it during a graphic game while using all four Pokey channels. That's one thing that I envy about the 7800, being able to use TIA and Pokey simultaneously, although it's rarely been done ("Commando" only?). Many 8-bit games have left sound effects out because they wanted to use all four Pokey channels for music...

31336haxx0r Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 It's indeed a CPU intensive process, as you'll need to do oversampling. What sampling frequency are you using? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rdefabri Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 Just stumbled on this and sorry to resurrect an old thread - what are the specs of the GTIA sound - is it similar to the older machines internal speaker? I've seen some GTIA "music" and if I'm not mistaken, it can generate tones beyond simple clicks / buzzes...is that correct? (Can't see / access the music in the original post).

They could if it were written properly without using illegal opcodes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need to face the fact that our numbers are growing. I am certain that the makers and users of Antonia, Rapidus, XL14, etc. will agree that software should be written to be as compatible as possible, and not written to intentionally not run on newer CPUs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xxl Posted October 26, 2016 Author Share Posted October 26, 2016 Do you think that since "our numbers are growing," I should stop writing using the capabilities of the standard Atari and begin creating progs for modified computers? I prefer to write for my satisfaction... not for yours 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyle22 Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 My last word on this (here): It is obvious that you are a member of the "Cult of IllOps" and therefore, as a Cult Member, are incapable of rational thought.and reasoning.
