After reading this thread about TB on the Atari ST, I thought it might be worth sharing my similar treatment of Incantations part 3, on even more primitive hardware - the Sinclair ZX Spectrum. The sound chip is very similar to the Atari, actually - 3 channels of very simple synth.

Incidentally, it's based on the amazing Wembley 83 live version, which you should definitely check out if you've not encountered it before...

Dude, this is sick!

How'd you do it? Natively on the Spectrum with music software? Or did you have to program the bloody thing in ZX-Basic?


rgds,

Yep, I used Soundtracker, quite a powerful tracker program.

Now you mention it though, I remember reading about a conversion of the whole of TB part 1 done by someone from Spain, entirely in ZX Basic 'PLAY' statements. Never heard it for myself though - I really will have to track that down.
