C64 Thomas Detert's "Gordian Tomb" Oscilloscope view

[@ThomasDetertC64]

thanks for the upload, Rolf !! ;-)

[@gatemansg1]

i love it when the artists of old game music are on youtube, see all the people who still love their creations, and feel appreciation. Jeroen Tel is quite active in comment sections of cheetahman91's c64 uploads of his stuff.

@@gatemansg1 Alberto Gonzalez comments on every cover of his work that he can find!

[@tziirkq]

When I first heard this, I was confused, it really sounds like more than three channels. Legendary composing.

[@allan.n.7227]

Thomas.. I really really like your work.. ATM Clystron is my favorite. 😎 Thx !

[@MiNi-nn7zi]

Yeah. 30+ mins of audio Culture uploaded with three jumping visual lines. What else is needed for feeling good. :)

C64 be like "I don't care about limitations! Screw em'!

Hell the sound chip seems to be getting better songs as the generations go on

[@randomcatdude]

@@Sinistar1983 Oh hey, a reply to a random comment of mine back when I was a cringy 12 year-old.

Like 50 of the views on your oscilloscope videos are me. C64 soundtracks are good music for working/studying.

[@verbicide4736]

I agree. I listen to this song when programming.

[@daniela_dundel]

what a disgrace to the music, use a lift music instead, same disgrace to the composer

[@Roflcopter4b]

@@daniela_dundel Music can't be disgraced, it lacks the ability to feel emotions.

Oh cool, a new oscilloscope SID... *notices the video length* *head explodes*

[@chez-berger]

Which head?! 🥵🤩🤤

[@Technoboy1974]

Ich weiss nicht wie oft ich das Spiel im Pausemode hab laufen lassen, um mir den Song auf meiner Anlage anzuhören. Das Ding ist und bleibt ein *Meisterwerk* ! ! ! Was Thomas Detert da aus dem SID rausgeholt hat ist einfach nur großartig.

[@Peepimus]

Wow…! Now that’s length.!.!

[@frankhansen2992]

one of the best c64 tunes i ever heard

[@ancientapparition1638]

IMPOSSIBRU

[@souljastation5463]

Gordian Tomb is so underrated: for years I didn't even remeber the game's title. Of course the fact that virtually no-one in the retro scene talks about it didn't help.

[@ZoidFile]

Thanks for uploading a Thomas Detert tune. I think his SID-music is really underappreciated. When I was young I bought the Magic Disk and Game On! magazines pretty much only because of his music.

[@alexanderwingeskog758]

Yes, Detert is true SID music master! Although I did not recognize him when I actually used my C64.

[@gatemansg1]

he's definitely underappreciated. he doesn't even have a wikipedia article...

[@HarryMorris69]

Probably my most favourite C64 tunes of all time.

[@glitchedblood]

Absolutelly the best c64 soundrack. This game has special room in my heart.

[@mibo747]

Same... atmosphere non existend anymore

three channels of devastating beauty

[@Setsuna_Kyoura]

I really love the stereophonic effect when two or all tree channels work on the same tone... Glorious at 24:12

[@lsddreamemulator]

This is not stereo but he works so good that i think is stereo.

Thanks for your work and for this new upload, highly appreciated, really !

[@bitbuster512]

probably one of the most visually interesting & (understandable ?) tunes in this area. very nice.

[@VinsCool]

Simply amazing. I love it!

[@hexecuted]

Love the 60fps! Anti-aliased 1080p would be a great addition.

[@arekkosiarski5431]

Awesome nostalgia and love ❤️

[@tze-ven]

Weird. These waveforms are those that my electronics circuits generate and I am used to seeing and studying them through oscilloscope to understand or troubleshoot problems. Never did I know they would sound so great when mixed together.

[@kandek0pl]

Great tune and excellent oscilloscope view. I think there is something wrong with filters. I heard version with much intense filters, and it is also great. I know each SID is unique.

[@Theel25]

This uses 6581, the one that uses the "intense" filters is 8580, which is what Detert did most of his tunes with.

[@thierrykurt3867]

One of my all time classics !

[@AozoraOrigami]

this is melting in 60fps

[@AozoraOrigami]

its fantastic :D

[@v2point0]

60 FPS...Wonderful....

[@9a3eedi]

Loving the 60Hz :D

[@PrinzII]

This is quite interesting to see music broken down like that.

[@lorien6678]

This is the one of my facourite sids from my beginning on c-64. The one that when I hear, something positive is comming back.

[@dalmohernandes3178]

only 3 channels and yet it sounds so freaking deep less is indeed more

[@akkudakkupl]

What waveforms are combined to create the charpiscord style sound in the first track (that 'peaky' looking waveform)? Triangle and pulse?

[@veraxis9961]

13:24 My favorite part.

24:20 !!!

[@luminous_neptune]

What a masterpiece. Easily up there with the Tetris C64 theme.

[@jordantfryman6184]

I'm curious how on that track. Wally Beben got four audio channels and not just three???

[@luminous_neptune]

Must have been a sample channel.

[@vrod2144]

Where can i get this oscilloscope?

[@MrTrollinglol]

What kind of wave is that at the top?

[@KitsuneCentral]

Square wave with Resonance added through the filter.

[@jacknedry3925]

It depends, each of the 3 Channels can be switched independently to different waveforms. The 8-Bit Guy has a good video that explains this, search “how old school music worked”

[@Delta225]

And I thought Tetris was long...

[@cybernit3]

Gordian Knot - How did Alexander The Great cut the Gordian Knot? ...hmmm....... ... with a SWORD and he became the master of Asia Minor. For a short time and literally paved the road for Christianity? And who paved the road? The Roman Empire. - YA THANKS BRAM FOR HELPING BRUCE DICKINSON WITH IRON MAIDEN!

[@omerfarukbykl6097]

What do you mean by no looping?

[@StCreed]

It means the song hasn't been set to repeat, but this is one single playthrough of the song. Since it's rather long, people might assume that it's put on repeat otherwise.

[@daibonehead]

I missed this back in the day. I know it is highly thought of by some but I think there is a lot of padding in tune, almost as if it was designed to get over the 30 minutes mark to a statement. Give me some Wally Beben's Tetris instead.

[@verbicide4736]

Tetris by Wally Beben has already been done. Look on this channel, it's somewhere.
