8/16-bit emulator for Mac OS and Linux: Clock Signal v2024-01-22 Thomas Harte's Clock Signal is an emulator for various 8- and 16-bit platforms aiming to be invisible to the user. The idea is to simply start the source medium without configuring the emulator oneself. Clock Signal is available for Mac OS and Unix-compatible systems. While there is also an Amiga emulation included, it "remains wilfully inaccurate" for now. Changes:

German podcast: "The Games Archaeologists" discuss Wheel of Fortune The German podcast "Die Spiele-Archäologen" covers retro games in 25 episodes so far. The current edition discusses Wheel of Fortune, which was released in 1991, with the self-proclaimed "archaeologists" mainly talking about the Amiga version of the game, their favorite Wheel of Fortune presenter and "the best letter pusher on private television". Images and texts as well as a video about the game are presented, and the podcast can also be listened to on the usual services such as Spotify. And if you don't remember Wheel of Fortune, you can find a German review of the game at Kultboy. (snx) [News message: 21.

Hardware: Bass mixing with "BassMX" As Edwin van den Oosterkamp writes under the title link, one of the things he always enjoyed on his Amiga was watching demos, especially when using a hi-fi system with proper speakers instead of the small speakers in the 1084S monitor. However, the Amiga's perfect channel separation always bothered him a little, so that you could hear the drums on one speaker and the bassline on the other, for example. This could make the sound feel unbalanced. He developed "BassMX" as a solution to this problem: it takes the sound from one channel, filters it so that only the low frequencies are retained and mixes it with the sound from the other channel. In short, it mixes the bass for both channels. And Edwin explains: "In theory this means that the bassline and drums are now on both speakers while the locations of other instruments are unaffected. In practice it depends on the actual instruments used. While the bass drum will be centred, the Hi-Hat will not be, for example. Similar with a slap-bass, where the slap part will still be only on the original channel but the bass sound itself will be on both channels." He offers audio examples on his website to help you understand this. Robert Smith published a YouTube video in which he demonstrates the difference between the standard Amiga sound and the BassMX sound. The developer himself describes the BassMX development process in a separate blog entry. The module is available on eBay or now also from Alinea Computer. (dr) [News message: 20.
