Hiya Oric'ians!

Does anyone know much about the aforementioned demo of sample-playback, by our dear Twilighte? Try as I might my google-fu turns up doperom and other such links to this very file .. but knowing Twi, he may have written up more details about this somewhere.

Now that we have amazing .DSK capabilities, I think that having a sample-playback music-machine for the Oric would be a fabulous thing indeed. If I can grok this .dsk, I'll have a go at it ..

I'm not sure if it's the same one but he had about 4 disks of samples on his site. They has a little program to play through the sounds.

For using samples Sonix 4 could be used or Soundtracker. Soundtracker used 4-bit samples, I think so the previous ones needed converting for use. It made for short noises which were mostly percussive. I think there were utilites on the Soundtracker disk to convert the sounds.
