Sorry to necro this thread, but I was wondering if you had any more information on the Computron? I got one a while back and I'm trying to find out more about it but the internet literally has nothing on it besides who made it, who sold it, and what year it was made in.

Thanks a bunch! I hadn't thought of that, actually, but it's an extremely good idea that I'll have to implement soon. I'm also thinking of adding in a programmable sequencer for making drum loops, so hopefully with this and the dual controllers it'll turn into something actually useful.

I'm a musician and I wanted some Atari drums, so I programmed something that fit my needs and I figured I'd post it here. It is the first Atari homebrew I've actually finished. It's extremely simple and really not anthing special, you press the Joystick in a direction and it plays a drum sound and flashes some colours, but it works well for what I want it for. The drums don't sound very close to actual drums, but half the fun of Atari is using your imagination, right? I tried to make the drums sound at least somewhat like what they are supposed to, but it's pretty difficult with the sounds available and my lack of knowledge on using them. Anyway, if anyone wants to check it out, it's here. Up is a crash, down is a tom, left is a closed hat, right is a snare, and fire is a kick. Enjoy. Drum Thing.zip

I would totally pay for this! Tone Toy is super nifty and I would love to have it on an actual, official cart. I know this thread died years ago, but I need Tone Toy heard dammit!

I'm not sure if this is in the right place, but here goes. I have three chips from inside an Atari 2600, marked C010444D-19, C010750-12, and C010745-12. I know the C010444D-19 is the TIA chip, and I'm wondering what the other two are, and what can I use them for. My first thought when I found the TIA was "I should make an awesome synth with this!" but I realized this may not even be possible.
