(The most extreme example thereof being the Freespin demo, that runs entirely inside the 1541 on its 6502, so obviously there is not even an attached Comodore 64/128 to rely upon for the music).Īnd of course, if we're going to speak about stepper noise being used for music, obviously we cannot forget to mention the mighty/insane Floppotron.

One of the purpose (beside simple nostaligia and search for retro-authentism) is that there are games and scene demos that actually use the drive's noise as an extra percussion channel for the music.

' Both ways up hill in the snow'-jokes aside, this REALY exist.īoth in USB emulator such as FloppyFlash firmware for GoTek and for full blown cycle exact Commodore 1541 emulators like Pi1541 (not merely speaking the same serial protocol, but even able to run custom code similar as the 6502 in the real drive come to think off, the 1541 with onboard CPU was closer to our modern concept of NAS). Why not got for the sound of a floppy drive?

Maybe some of the crappy Windows 'soft modems' would take that signal, digitize it, and present it as a windows audio source instead of having a hard Almost every modem up to 56.6kbps that you used was just tapping that signal and piping it through a $0.50 speaker to play the handshake. Modems had to produce signals at frequencies humans could hear, because the analog filters on the switches would filter everything else out as 'noise'. Plain, non-digital telephone lines were clipped to the audible range. If I remember correctly, on many of the later models you could turn the sound 'off'. But there was no good *reason other than giving the user some audible signals, for the purpose of 'monitoring', to produce any noise after it could be done electronically. In the early modems that worked acoustically by being connected to phone it was the actual sound of handshake and other stuff would produce, because it had to happen in the audible range the phones were designed to work with. Synthetically producing the sound is what all the later modems that worked all electronically over the phone connection did anyway, if I remember correctly.
