Re: Connecting a USB Midi controller

Apologies if this is tangential, but I can at least report easy success transmitting MIDI events over USB to those cores and AO486 using an M-Audio Axiom 25 controller. Though events generated by the cores are transmitted to external synths connected to its MIDI OUT connector, I'm still wondering if it's possible to pass events from its MIDI IN con...

Re: What else can I do with an MT32?

If you are creatively inclined I would recommend searching for a copy of the DOS version of "Dr. T's Roland MT-32 Editor-Librarian" program along with a manual. Much more enlightening and user-friendly in my experience than anything Roland provided. The original version was on Atari ST and there was an Amiga port too. Also known as "...

Re: Super Snapshot 5 broken (calling eriks5? :)

Was not able to reproduce this with a real NTSC C64 and Super Snapshot 5. Not sure how to check the cartridge version, but mine does nothing if RESTORE is hit at the READY prompt, apart from a single-line glitch that appears for one video frame. So I was hitting the cartridge button then the 7 key in sequence over and over about thirty times and it...

Re: How can I get text from my PC to 64 core?

BASIC programs are tokenized, so if you're using a text editor to write them then VICE's petcat utility may be in order, e.g:

Code: Select all

petcat -2 -o outputfile.prg -- inputfile.txt

Re: MiSTer MidiLink

The MiSTer_MIDILink daemon by bbond007 works nicely with the M-Audio Axiom 25 MIDI controller keyboard connected via USB. Programs running on the AtariST, Amiga and AO486 cores can receive events generated by its keys/knobs/pads/pedals and transmit events to external synths by its MIDI OUT connector. But, after reading its manual and what I could f...

Soldier Blade – Screen Mode Bug

Was hoping another forum member might corroborate/invalidate what I believe may be a bug running Soldier Blade (J/U): enter the "SET UP" mode from the title screen and then toggle the "SCREEN MODE" option from "NORMAL" to "ARCADE". All the text quickly disappears leaving only the solid background color. It is...
