Wow, great! Wish I had a TARDIS!
In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. But, in practice, there is.

Andy Rea wrote:right there is a quick fix for this bug.....
load up ZXBETA.P
press SHIFT Q and then Y to quit the program
then do POKE 21263,195 newline
then POKE 18014,1 newline
DELETE "ZXBETA.P" newline OR you can change the name in line 998 to something else before the next step.
RUN 998 this will save it with the fix in place.

Hi,

I'm pretty confused now (looking for all the soft) and my coding skills = 0, to would anybody be so kind and make some final version of SoundTracker_ZX81 and upload it somewhere?

Sorry for troubles.
Y


______________EDIT_____________________
Is there any instruction/manual of the program? I can't even find STOP. ;)

Saved, thx a lot!
Is there any totally-basic-keyset description? I found up/down/left/right/fire but all the rest is hard to find.

No problem Moggy,

OK the keys, first up I,K,U,O up, down, left and right, used mostly everywhere,

newline has various uses depending what your doing select/deselect a menu item, move on to next screen in sample editor, Clear note field in pattern editor.

shift + newline changes menu's
shift + e switches to/from pattern editor

when in the pattern editor. ZSXDCVGBHNJM = the notes c, c#, d, d', e, f, f#, g, g#, a, a#, b ( a sharp is shown by a + symbol) the Hex field are entered using 0-9 a-f as normal, shift + a or b or c turn a channel on or off. shift + I or K previous / next pattern, shift + 1 to 8 select default ornament

When playing a pattern or song press s to stop , i and k speed up/slow down playback.

in the sample editor, u, o move cursor left/right, I,k increase/decrease column height, the sample repeat has been moved to the sample editor too, r sets the start of the repeat to the current step (column) shift + o and shift + u increase / decrease the repeat lenght, shift + r cancels the reapeat, it's more easy to understand when you see it, the repeat start point is shown by an inverse R and the length by inverse dashes, m toggles a single mask, shift + m toggles all the masks on that screen. newline goes to next screen and p goes to previous screen, neline on the final screen exits and saves all changes.

Erm load and save, when asked for a file name do not include any extension, be aware that for saves the program deletes an exsisting file first.

Think thats about it.

Regards andy
