Ha ha, hi friend! Yes, it was your awesome synth I am recalling. How are you doing? And thanks for this distillation of how the sound code worked. You're name-checked in the YouTube video linked in this thread.
Yeah, and to your point, I liked the comment on the linked site:
"The crudeness and lack of bounds checking of the program allowed for mathematical wraparound and error accumulation that sounded ethereal."
- msarnoff 2y agoI have 2 kids now (a toddler and a newborn) so I don’t get to hack on stuff anymore like I used to. I’m teaching my oldest about all the classic retro games though… if I ever get my Mac LC back from my parents’ house I’ll introduce him to Glider :)
- JKCalhoun 2y agoCongrats on the kids (and married too I assume). Why wait for your LC? Run an emulator. I put a bunch of disk images with the sources and compilers on GitHub that work nicely with 68K Mac emulators.
