Yup, you can grab it here: https://github.com/biermanncarl/cx16-concerto

It's a synthesizer engine for the X16.

Re: VERA FX demos for VCF

Awesome :)

Do you think you'll release the source for these demos as well? It would be a good example of how to use the FX features.

Doing Ctrl+V in the emulator pastes what's in your clipboard into the BASIC editor. This is meant to support copy/pasting BASIC programs from elsewhere (like a web page) into the emulator. It processes each line that's pasted like you typed it and pressed enter. If you have stuff in your clipboard t...

Re: VERA FX

Well, it's in R44 of the emulator, and I've heard of people that already have it on their hardware without issues, so I would say it's probably safe to flash it.

Re: VERA PALLETTE UPDATE USING VPOKE.

It might be easier to just have it in a file and load it in.

Re: Switching to R43 frustration

The operative phrase here in Ed's post was "I wrote some code to save a file with the following filename: " I.E. He wrote some code, not typed commands into the BASIC prompt. To be clear, I'm doing all of this in assembly language. Also, I have no trouble loading files in the DEMO folder;...

Re: Switching to R43 frustration

I have similar frustrations with the way files are handled now, particularly with subfolders. No matter what I do I can't seem to load a file if it's in a subfolder. I wrote some code to save a file with the following filename: @:DEMO/IMG/PIX40.DAT And that saved PIX40.DAT properly in the IMG subfo...

Re: Using routines in the BASIC ROM

Thanks for that extra info - no, I’m not convinced I’ve been looking at the right ROM bank! I’ll try your example with MON - I’d forgotten that you can specify the bank address when providing an address! Cheers Oh, sorry, the example I gave was for using the emulator's debugger (if you run with &qu...

Re: Using routines in the BASIC ROM

From what I can tell, looking at the file's history on github, there hasn't been a change to that function since it was first added from Michael Steil's cbm source (except to change it from upper case to lower case). So the code should be pretty much identical... Are you sure you were looking at the...

Re: Crazy Tetrominoes

It has been my personal experience that... On some versions of the emulator, neither the jiffy clock nor the real time clock will start running until you set them. It would appear that on hardware, they both start running on powerup. And the RTC continues to keep time while the computer is off, pro...
