LS3 received, and posted... here a picture of the hypno lights... Two are off, I assume they are spare for a firmware update?

Lights are explained here:

Ah! Great! Lots of information. Everybody should take a closer look!

Cool! You've been 1st I guess!

Now I'm supposed to make an RSX expansion, but nonsense is more fun for tonite ;-)

I want that

The 8 lights correspond to the bits you send to port &FBEE. So it's a little BASIC program (on CPC, not on my laptop here) which sends values 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128 and then 64, 32, 12, 8, 4, 2 and then starts again. Between sending the values you put FRAME:FRAME:FRAME and that's it.

Ok, I just need to get it from CPC to PC....
Here you go...

To the guys with a LambdaSpeak 3 - I just found that one of the BASIC demo programs doesn't work when M4 firmware / ROM is enabled. The DRUMLOAD.BAS program loads the Boss DR 660 Drum Computer samples into EEPROM from DSK and uses the Amsdos header information to figure out the file size. This gets messed up with M4 ROM enabled, so program only works on plain 464 and 6128 with Amsdos or Parados.

So, if you want to play with LambdaDrum BASIC programs, please make sure to have ordinary Amsdos or Parados etc. It seems M4 patches these.

https://github.com/lambdamikel/LambdaSpeak3

I have update the DSK images there also with a note regarding that.

EDIT: JUST learned from @Rennert that you can just use lM4ROMOFF to disable the M4 ROM.

Mine just arrived. Fabulous piece of hardware @LambdaMikel ! Will play more with it at the weekend when I have time. Thanks also to @GUNHED for forwarding it on to me

Good to see it arrived. Working on RSX-ROM for LS3 now... work in well progress...

@TFM / @GUNHED without your RSX / ROM, LS would only be half as usable!! Thumbs up!!

Oh well. FutureOS support is already there.

Implemented PCM Sample upload today. (Couldn't do more, needed to rescue laptop).
Missing: Sample Play and MP3 stuff.

Wow! You are a Z80 Wizzard

Yes, you can synchronize PCM upload by checking "ready for next byte" in upload stream &20.

How fast can you upload? Curious! My BASIC program needs 15 mins for ~120 KBs.

PS Regarding FOS - seems you already have the RTC support in... by default, it goes to M4 clock though, so I need to burn some "real" Eproms now with new FOS such that I can run it from RomboRedux

LambdaMikel · « **Reply #463 on:** 03:51, 28 May 19 »

Forgot that I also have the XMem - and FOS even has an installer for it!

So, here is FOS with LambdaSpeak 3 RTC support. It works

LambdaMikel · « **Reply #464 on:** 08:27, 28 May 19 »

@GUNHED another thing I forgot to ask - now that you got your LS3, does it actually fit in the Amsdap? Remember I changed the PCB design according to your suggestion

GUNHED · « **Reply #465 on:** 19:00, 28 May 19 »

I have to look...

The LS3 ROM advances... I just have troubles with |PCMPLAY... but hope to find out what's the problem on software side. This is how far I got till today...
(Also MP3 things ~~and temperature are~~ still missing. Temp-Sensor added.)

Great progress, excellent!!!
Looking forward to testing it tonight.

Last update of the LambdaSpeak III RSX ROM before my annual vacation... just click at the link in my signature (from now on and again). Comments are welcome as usual.

XeNoMoRPH · « **Reply #471 on:** 09:00, 03 June 19 »

is there any RSX command to play mp3 files ?

LambdaMikel · « **Reply #472 on:** 10:08, 03 June 19 »

Can't check at this time, but will soon! Awesome job so far, as usual!

GUNHED · « **Reply #473 on:** 14:50, 03 June 19 »

Thank you very much! Awesome hardware, can't wait until my vacation is over. I'll take off tomorrow, but few hours are left, so I already dive into MP3 commandos. They will be added during this month.

GUNHED · « **Reply #474 on:** 21:51, 03 June 19 »

Little update in documentation. No new commands, but explanations.
