Yet another trip to the museum today, mainly for interviews for BBC 6 Music and BBC News 24.

I got to get the sounds of the Dragon 32 done, it either seems to produce rather unique square waves or it’s attempting to create a very rough triangle wave as shown on the oscilloscope, either way that’s how it’s gonna be for this project, but it does sound rather nice. Will get to work on the Sord M5, BBC Micro & Atari 800XL tomorrow.

Also it’s interesting to note that alot of the machines aren’t in tune with eachother not only that, they are often not in tune with other machines of the same type. So some of the machines will have solo performances which I quite like the idea of anyway.

One of the rules I have made for myself for this project is that I can’t alter the pitch or add any post production to the sounds, I want them to be as the listener would experience them whilst in front of the machine.
