 Need help!!! Plus4 DMC Tracker

Hello guys,

I use the DMC tracker for the Commodore Plus4 and have a problem.
I can not save my song because it comes an error code called -

"sorry your song is to long" oO ?????

I have not much in the song and the song is short... some seconds for test... not more as the demo songs. What I make wrong? I'd be very grateful if anyone can help me.

Never used DMC, I prefer SIDwinder V01.23.
Which version of DMC are you using? Did you try another one?

Just the soundbooster but is not so good... is the SIDwinder V01.23 also for the Plus4?

Didn't understand: did you use DMC or Soundbooster V1?
As you've surely seen clicking on the link, SIDwinder V01.23 runs on Plus/4+SIDcard.

It looks like the dmc and dmc 1.2 has some converting bug, is it possible?!
Anyway, i tested it and had a similar results, but don't worry!
Try the v2.3+ version of it!

Oh well, Csio helped you much more than me happy
Remeber that all the three editors cited produce a typical C64 SID tune, which can be played on Plus/4 in some very reduced ways via frequency converter or wave converter (as the ones used by several of them in order to playback your creation). In the end, you may really use any C64 tracker or editor too, then convert it back on Plus/4.

May we have some more infos about what's the idea behind your Plus4 Album? wink

@ababe: i checked v2.3+ and it works fine, when you want to save íour song.
Did you use dmc under emulator? Then we can integrating a sidcard emulation, with VIC-II-985khz emulation, and then it is equal than sound of c64, i think. well?

Byteman:

Aaaah, that's another and veeeeeeery loooooong story.
I prefer TED, to be honest, but those editors were too hard for me.
Several years passed and I return to the thought - who knows, maybe this time it will go better with the software.

For now I have to finish this project http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=We8kMyS4c4k but seems like I will return to the TED idea too.

Ah, in case anybody would be interested in retro-computing in general -

 Re: Need help!!! Plus4 DMC Tracker

Yerzmyey, I like you work, as usual. I wish I hear something from you on TED too happy

Using ZX81 is a kind or mazochism, right? or I can say challenge happy


OFF
In fact the very first Hungarian synth-album (LP) from 1983 was also made with ZX81, in Omega Studio.
When I was a kid, I played it to death, next to my father's Tesla B-4 with Krafterk "Radioactivity".
That was the time ! happy

It was Panta Rhei Computer (or PR Computer). till today it sounds well, I do not feel it too outdated.

Chronos: thx dude. wink And the name was kinda joke but I know it's hard to revise, hehe. wink


MIK: thank You very much, this chip is pretty comfortable while it comes to usage regular square wave as a bass (which is impossible on Atari XL for instance). I wish to test TED one day, heheh.


MMS: cheers mate. You can believe me that I _will_ try. I will again collect all the software and try again to learn it. I even already bought more 5,25" diskettes and the interface PC<=>Commodore diskdrive.

> Using ZX81 is a kind or mazochism, right? or I can say challenge
-------------
Hahaha, the same thing somebody was asking me when I bought C=116. happy happy
The truth is, I like such hardware - and I even got used to ZX81's touch-sense keyboard! wink
