Anybody working with the FPGA incorporation of the AMIGA which was mentioned at the former page?
My current FPGA audio project:

Music-X for all my midi/sampler/analog stuff that was released on vinyl back then.
Music-X was awesome, it had both linear and non-linear workflow and could do nested sequences, ghost tracks things and even live triggering of sequences
All thanks to the nifty "play sequence" command you could insert into any track.
Think "scratch pads" way before Studio One
And similar to Chunks in Digital performer.
Played around with Bars and Pipes, but never wrote anything on it
Protracker for all my demo scene mods
You think I would like Renoise as a result, but I can't get a handle on it...

It's an interesting predicament to be in; data being stranded by an ever widening technology gap. Most computers haven't featured parallel ports and floppy drives in years. I managed to migrate all my Amiga mods and documents because I took them with me through each computer transition. Amiga 500 floppies -> Amiga 500 HD -> moved to SCSI HD in Amiga 2000 -> copied to SCSI ZIP disks -> copied via IDE ZIP drive to HD on Windows 95>98>2000>XP -> Mac OS9>OSX.Pytchblend wrote:I've got quite a few tracks made with OctaMED on Amiga-formatted floppys.

Years and years of soundtracker, protracker, and OctaMED here. When I had to say goodbye to Amiga I packed all of my HDs and most of my floppies to tar files; now I'm really happy I can use all of them in WinUAE

I used to track in Protracker back in the day with this guy Ian. He was nuts then, he hasn't changed much now. I used to write loads of chip music back in the day and I think they're still on the ampsuite website with thousands and thousands mods. I misss the old days. Logic Pro X just isn't the same.

I loved dragging the markers around in AudioMaster IV... works best on long samples

A (pricey) hardware alternative is the Kryoflux FDD controller - it's designed for archival backups of all kinds of disk formats.

I bought a MIDI interface and TechnoSound Turbo 2 back in the day through Amiga Format promos. Still have the MIDI interface and the manual for TST2 but I dunno where the TST2 interface is. Must have a rummage around sometime and see if I can find it. I recently added a 128MB CF card "hard disk" to my A1200.
It would be nice to get it up and running again for games and some music making. Although last I tried, most of my floppies were having read issues. Don't know if it's the disks or the drives that's at fault. Fortunately, I transferred most/all of my mod files to PC long ago. But I didn't do the same with my sample floppies.
There is a tool for reading Amiga floppies on PC, but it requires two floppy drives to work. If you're handy with a soldering iron, it's also possible to mod certain PC drives to make them read Amiga disks.
