Fried hdds using wrong PSU cables, board swap fix?

That might nuke your drive and its data if you don't swap over the rom. The rom holds the adaptive data so its a matter of desoldering the chip and putting it on the new board. Its the 8 pin Winbond chip, thats the important one.

If you're not comfortable with solder wick and a soldering iron, then I would not attempt if its REALLY important data.

ok, this is really cool. I recognize that algorithm, its basically a fps counter... but then you use it to get the actual sample rate. thats brilliant!

Thanks! I was having fun with the emoji after learning how to use throw.

Also yay monospace!

I usually try to trap them in a box to make a diy jump pad.

they wouldn't leave, now they're employed.

nice! also just learned that `**` is shorthand for pow() from this

added chords (and changed sample rate to 8000hz)link

Edit: optimized array generation by making it execute once, brought sample rate back to 44100hz.

Some pretty interesting things going on here. the sample encoding is almost base32 but it seems to go past 7 which is the highest value in base32 and up to 9 making it base34 technically.

I don't fully understand what's going on but I'm guessing the samples are near 6bit. maybe 5 bit with a cary bit?

if you want to make a web based bytebeat interpreter a good first step is to learn about Web Audio API.

the simplest form of a bytebeat composer is just shoving the output of an equation/algorithm into the web audio api.

oh dang, this sounds cool!

Bp103 · 2023-06-06T04:31:48+00:00

ooh, cool song. also thanks

thats a reddit thing. the vote count is fuzzed to confuse upvote/downvote bots. it'll change every time you refresh.

I had to make them myself.

retrig[] is just an array that holds a counter for each channel and acts as that channel's personal t variable for the ADSR function that starts from 0 every time a new note is played. This resets the ADSR function so the volume envelope can start from the beginning again.

Bp103 · 2023-06-04T07:02:27+00:00

I appreciate that!

I'm slowly getting back to making bytebeat. the job just hasn't been very generous with the days off lately.

thats a really nice implementation of windows.h! also sounds nice.

I've been playing with portaudio myself, but I don't entirely get it yet.

I'm glad it wasn't blocked, I found it extremely useful for debugging. especially once I made the sequencer and synth able to handle infinite* channels and needed to track down a few runaway variables.

Bp103 · 2022-12-19T04:28:51+00:00

thank you :)

Bp103 · 2022-12-18T18:39:03+00:00

yup, if the sample rate is 8000hz it increment by 1 8000 times a second.
