  1. There is a current project going on here : https://www.exxoshost.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?f=29&t=330
  2. Is this the original 520 ST with no internal disk drive? I may have one.
  3. I have a SCSI2SD connected to an ICD ADSCSI and another connected to a SUPRA SCSI. The only driver that seems to work for me is https://www.hddriver.net/en/ I cannot get the ICD drivers to work at all. I do own one of PPERA's drivers, but it is his IDE driver so I never bothered to try it.
  4. Holy cow! What an amazing development. Thank you so very much.
  5. Trouble is that I have zero musical ability. I am tone deaf, don't read music well, and honestly cannot program beyond a rudimentary level. I just made the whole thing for fun. I continued the fun by programming another entry with my Portfolio. I'm sure this one has an equal number of issues, but oddly I enjoyed making the little Portfolio beep crappy tones than I did having the MT-32 play music.
  6. I've submitted an Atari ST entry into the /r/Retrobattlestations Holiday Music Week contest on Reddit. ​I wrote a program in GFA BASIC on my Atari ST that plays Silent Night on my Roland MT-32 and displays a picture of Christmas Balls I photographed with an Apple QuickTake 200. I needed to learn how to program MIDI control codes as well the corresponding MIDI notes. I had difficulty locating any information on how to do this from BASIC, but through trial and error and quite a bit of luck was able to get the MT-32 to play the tune. I am not very good at reading music, so the process of creating a tune was long for me. I'm sure it would be much easier for someone who can actually read music. I then imported the photo in to my ST via the ComputerEyes Digitizer and saved the image as a Neochrome file. Once that was done, back in GFA BASIC I added some code to load the Neochrome pictures into the program. I then added some some lyrics and text and set up the video shoot for the contest. I am not much of a programmer, but enjoyed learning how to make the MT-32 make sounds and then making it play a tune from BASIC. Below is a link to the video as well as the Reddit post. https://www.reddit.com/r/retrobattlestations/comments/a7igi7/atari_st_roland_mt32_silent_night/
  7. Looks pretty cool. Miner 2049er style of platformer. I will give this a go. Thanks!
  8. And yes, I saw that you want a PM or email on this. I didn't ask that way because Pixelmischief already had.
  9. I really appreciate everything you contribute to the Atari community, but there are times that you seem to get caught up in things that just don't matter. I have no idea why you are concerned with what Chris chooses to spend his time doing. Keep doing awesome stuff that we all love and try to worry less about the trivial things.
  10. Get a SCSI2SD with the 50 pin to 25 pin adapter. https://store.inertialcomputing.com/category-s/100.htm
  11. I used it with SIO2OSX for awhile, but eventually stopped doing so when I moved on to other options. And yes, it was painted with Krylon Fusion Paint if I recall correctly. I chose white because I wanted to pay homage to the iBook that was being placed inside the 810.
  12. I stumbled upon my iBrick in the attic and figured I'd see if I could find my original post about this. The .Mac hosting is no more so I'll attach the pictures here on Atariage.
  13. Tried this on my Mega STe and Falcon030 today. Really nice. I look forward to diving in deeper soon.
  14. I too received the email. I am looking forward to it.
  15. Looks amazing Chris. I'm cannot offer technical help, but I certainly am watching with interest.
