Fearofdark - Get A Brian Morans!

Enjoy!

[@yarr33]

This is one of Fod's first tracks, it's in his album "The early attempts". These songs are just amazing for early attempts

[@snifles8474]

Wait, the early attempts doesn't seem to be on Spotify :(

@@habdman Ohhh!! I thought it was on some special website or forum. Cool! Imma look up his YT name, thanks Abdon!

[@Redspl]

EDIT: As a lot of people were offended by my comment - I was wrong, it was the "1bit symphony" instead of the 555. I made a 555 timer piano thingie as a child, and I misremembered the schematic - they're pretty similiar :P Below is the original comment, presumably false. Fun fact: The background is actually a real working schematic! The IC is 555, one of the oldest integrated timer circuits, in this configuration it would create audible square-wave noises, by tuning the slider you'd be able to control the pitch.

[@TheCode-X]

Cool!!

[@mincrmatt12]

I think the NE part is redundant, most people just call it a '555' timer.

[@Redspl]

@@mincrmatt12 Oh yeah, my bad. I was used to the naming scheme from ST Electronics(?), as that's what I used the most a few years back :P

[@meercreate]

I would love to see someone replicate this, as it has no caps

[@tehrobotjesus]

That's not true. If it were a 555, you would need a timing capacitor and different connections. Notice that there is a button and that the potentiometer is connected to the headphone jack, serving as a volume control. The chip is an AVR microcontroller (ATTINY85 maybe?) from Tristan Perich's "1-Bit Symphony".

You remember those keyboards you had as a kid in the early 90s.... you just get really good w them

[@traztom4082]

The program that FearOfDark used to make this is ModPlug, but you kinda gotta have some sound samples on hand if you wanna use it. I'd recommend FamiTracker, which is what i use personally

[@Ozzy_Helix_]

[@JXter_]

FOD is one of the most brilliant chiptune composers of our era, for his early attempts this is some seriously incredible work. Not only does he have mastery over trackers which can be quite esoteric programs to write music in, but he also has a firm understanding of what goes into a well-made composition. I would be lying if I said his music didn't cause me to burst into tears in awe of what he's managed to accomplish here.

[@erikg5458]

What era ur so young for keygen

[@guiteshima]

"Surfing On A Sine Wave", "Funknitium-99" and "Dreamscaping" are my favorites from FoD. And now this just joined the list of favorites. It's simply amazing.

***** So are you saying what's in the picture could work in real life but the picture itself wouldn't be effective for somebody who wanted to look at how it comes together? Because if so, I kinda figured it wasn't so much an edifying diagram as it is a cool picture. How about what the pieces are, what they do, and how they come together?
