There are lots of spectrum's AY-songs uploaded under "spectrum 16k/48k/+" platform which was meant for spectrum beeper
Most of them are uploaded by Vithor and I already sent him a message Isn't it so that ZX Spectrum models 16k, 48k and + have just beeper? (btw, does "beeper" have any more accurate name? Also AY sounds rather bleepy for most of ppl) Platform names could also be changed to "ZX Spectrum beeper" and "ZX Spectrum AY38910" if that makes the issue easier for uploaders. However, the 16k/48k/+ platform was created for early beeper music and no AY-stuff should be found from there. |

You think it is OPL-3?
i would presume it actually is OPL-2 since it is not in stereo. |

That's not quite what I meant. I don't know what platform it really is, but it just doesn't sound like anything an OPL chip could do.
I could be completely wrong however. ![]() |

Those different spectrum platforms were meant to separate spectrum's beeper music from AY music.
Now I have learned that with some extra card people can get AY-sound out of earlier Spectrums too. However, I think that keeping beeper and AY under their own platforms is good idea (so that requester knows what he/she gets) I guess we could rename platforms to "ZX Spectrum - beeper" and "ZX Spectrum - AY" and transfer AY songs to the latter. If there are songs featuring both beeper and AY played at the same time, I guess they still sound rather AY music than beeper music and the latter platform is better for them. |

I think renaming the platforms to Beeper/AY would be fine.
fishguy would probably say "use the tags to sort beeper tunes"... or somehing similar ;-P |

Commander Keen 4 songs must be OPL-2 rather than OPL-3 if they have been made in 1991 or what do you think?

so "ZX Spectrum 128" would become ZX Spectrum - AY".
And "ZX Spectrum 16k/48k/+" would be "ZX Spectrum - Beeper". But what about "Z80/ULA"? should it be moved to "ZX Spectrum - Beeper" platform. Any objections?... if not then i will change to those platforms as i wrote in this post. |

Im OK with the renaming of platforms. Z80/ULA (mostly Mister Beep songs) are recorded on a Sinclair Timex, or the North American version of the ZX81 and are not a spectrum at all, so yes there is some other differences between the Spectrum Beeper and Z80/ULA.
And yes, you should be tagging songs anyways with this stuff as you need to ![]() |

FishGuy, like Ultrasyd advised, I appeare here, to inform.
Spectrum/AY is OK because all Spectrums have different AY (no differences in sound) and actually you could even write Spectrum AY/YM (slight difference in sond, you wouldn't even notice) because majority of Spectrums on the East have YM only. But I wouldn't care - we say Spectrum AY simply. The Beeper category isn't required because it's double with Z80/ULA ZX/Timex. (Btw, only Timex 2048 and Timex 2068 can play regular music, not the ZX81 clones). Beeper is only a small speaker-output and nobody uses it, as there's an audio-out called "MIC". the name "beeper" remained because it's short. ![]() People connect regular loudspeakers to Spectrum so it's not a Beeper actually. ![]() It's only a short name. However it can stay as long as you delete the Z80/ULA category - it is the same thing. ![]() I noticed too late that they're doubled and added some songs with "Beeper". It's really required to make from them both - one category. Choose what you like more. ![]() |

If the category can all fit into beeper then I am OK for renaming all those categorys as well then ![]() |

Fish:
well, they're virtually the same. All. Everything. "Beeper" is a customary name and "Z80/ULA" is a technical description. Of the same thing. So there rather should be only one of the categories. Which one? It doesn't matter at all. You choose what you like more. ![]() |

![]() ![]() FishGuy876 / Brainstorm 487 Posts #358 (14 years, 6 months ago) |
Maybe just a combo of both names, like "Beeper (Z80/ULA etc.)" or something similar to indicate the different types that fall into the category?

I have replaced ![]() Donald Fakk said: "all YM emulators I've heard sofar is wrong! Now this is a bold statement, but actually..! Back in the days, I found that one could make echoeffects with the samplings by configuring the chipset - if you guys are interested, I have an mp3 of EarthIsRotten sounding the way it should. Recorded from my old ST1040 it is, quality is real bad but still - one can perceive the echo. Cheers, and big hi:s to Ultrasyd as well! :)"

It was i who added the Donald Fakk recordings and they are recorded from a real ST... but comparing this one i see that there are big differences.... i did put a note when i uploaded ![]() I dont know what could have gone wrong when i recorded those, i will check it out this weekend and re-record all if needed. |

Donald told me he will dig up some of his ST files and send them to me, so for the time being, hold off on re-recording anything. Maybe there is something slightly different in the files that he has. When I get them from him, I will forward them over for you to take a look at and work with. Perhaps the problem comes from the replayer or some other custom aspect. With Earth is Rotten, the ending was very different on Donald's recording, so maybe the files you have are not as recent. There are many different explanations ![]() |
