AYSIR

AY Player

Why

Sir Sinclair died 2 days ago and i also have to fix a problem with zipped AY thingy in jsVecx

ToDo:

• Random on/off
• Save last index to localStorage
• TS (6ch) support
• PT3 (2, 1)

History | Not sure what will happen here

26.03.2024: Added https://github.com/ponceto/aym-js 08.01.2024: Added panning, random song by kkRows, switched to my visualizer (which is an evolution of initial AYSir viz) 07.01.2024: Added https://github.com/lunarjournal/emu8910 15.05.2022:

• Started with PT3
• unsure how to handle TS later (inside=reader or outside=worker with two Audioctx?)

14.05.2022:

• Bugfix engine names

01.05.2022:

• Set position in BSC
• Multichannel Waveform
• Goniometer back to Byte
• Analyzer settings (FFTsize, MinDB, MaxDB, Smooth)

30.04.2022:

• Bugfix: Typo in BSCReader

29.04.2022:

• Added Norbert Kehrer's BSC Soundtrakker for .128 files (+309 songs from Norberts archive) (i siply set them all to .128 but most should be .SNG 1.x format)
• Multiple vizualizers (actually Goniometer, Spectogram)
• Bugfix: Space in URL (now 14566 songs)

25.04.2022:

• Added Spectrogram

13.11.2021:

• Added Vecx backend

17.10.2021:

• Songs from modland 5759 (.ym, .vtx)
• Songs from MccM 8807 (.fym) (needed proxy to pass CORS)

11.10.2021: Put old goniometer in a OffscreenCanvas worker, done

11.10.2021: Quickly hooked up my old goniometer, maybe add an output channel for each A,B,C-channel

11.10.2021: Found out that with worklets it's a bit different to access the 2nd channel. So i had to rework the backends a bit to support 2 outputs, still not channels but at least accessible for the analyzer node.

10.10.2021: I will continue here with my goniometer, but this time a more modern shader version, maybe... :)

10.10.2021: Finalized a bit. Move on.. move on! Use the na(t)ive select to see that audio worklet is not interrupted by main ui thread. Click on slot machine for random song.

06.10.2021: I did dome tests with other Worklet, PaintWorklet. Not nice since it's on main thread and there is no message port for com.

04.10.2021: not much time today, but picking up again after holidays with my wife

22.09.2021: some progress was made. already 2 backends but frontend is blocking pusher since all comm is done through main thread 1 or 2 backends more and i should have a nice backend suite.

Goal

Make Worker script that fills AudioWorklet This also needs decoding some formats like .fym

Steps

• Bring AYUMI into modern ES6 version
• Then make Audioworklet
• loader -> FYMreader -> AYUMI engine

HTML -> aysir.js module -> worker (load and pick reader, push data to worklet) -> Worklets (Ayumi, Cowbell, ...)

Is more than one worklet possible for turbo dual mode with two AY/YM chips emulation. Its a node, should be possible!

Engines

• AYUMI (compact code)
• Gasman / Cowbell Demozoo (also had some format readers and a changed Lh4 lib, i put both lh4 libs together and made class)
• jsVecx Engine
• lunarjournal
• ponceto

• https://github.com/ponceto/aym-js/tree/master/src/static/vendor/aym-js/js
• CODEF / Phaser Antoine Santo Aka NoNameNo, Nicolas CHALLEIL Aka STuFF

Maybe helpful Firefox config changes

• about:config
• dom.moduleScripts.enabled
• gfx.offscreencanvas.enabled

Formats https://bulba.untergrund.net/emulator_e.htm

1. Dumps of registers were recorded in many computers emulators:
   • OUT (recorded in ZX Spectrum emulator 'Z80' v3.xx by G.A. Lunter) Supported OUT files of ZX Spectrum emulator 'Z80' versions 3.02 and 3.03 by G.A. Lunter. OUT file has regular structure: sequence of five bytes blocks. First word in each block is time in Z80 processor tacts (range from 0 to 17471). Second word of block is ZX Spectrum port address. And last value of block (byte) is data is sent to this port during this tact. Each 17472nd tact in any case one block is wrote into OUT file, and if during this time no outing to any port of Speccy then first word of block is 65535. One tact of Z80 processor equal to 1/3494400 sec. OUT file can contain outing either to any Speccy ports or only to selected in 'Z80' emulator ports. To record outing only to AY-3-8910 ports (#BFFD and #FFFD), adjust 'Z80' emulator for storing only one port: #FD. And after creating OUT file convert it to other format (ZXAY file is optimized analog of OUT file).
