Hi everyone.

I would like to invite you all to the premiere of MIDICar Player.
Already this Saturday (9 July) at 23:00

This program is competing in the ABBUC Software Competition

This is the best ever player for Atari 8-bit

The programme is currently in version 1.5.5b. It works well with the SDX system, which makes it very easy to use and allows IDE devices to be used without problems. The programme is currently already supports three devices: - MIDICar - MIDIMate - MIDIBox Each of these devices is supported by a separ...

I'd like to introduce you to a gadget that is quite closely related to the world of MIDI and the MIDICar device - but not only. MIDI Remote is an external device whose main purpose is to be able to control MIDICar Player (in its latest version) via remote control. In addition, it also allows you to ...

But will there be a final version with (two) SIO ports? I am unlikely to be involved in the production of this gadget, unless something changes in my work life - time will tell. And will you sell a ready-to-use product or will you publish the files we need to reproduce it? Once the contest is over,...

I have a few more videos related to the very early stages of building the gadget. I will present them in chronological order. 1. the idea: to create a visualizer for MIDI - because, MIDI channel preview is not strictly related to MIDICar Player, but to MIDI protocol. https://youtu.be/FHLNVfzR6zM 2: ...

Hey Pancio: You once wrote this: (...) According to features.... there is no possible to use MIDIcar in duplex mode because MC6850 has only one common send/receive register. I'm thinking about using DACIA chip (R65C52) but I'm not sure it's required by more than a few people :-) we will see. (...) A...

Available connectors: MIDI-In, MIDI-Out, SIO ( in the form of DB9 socket - I had one). . Sikor is selling injection molded SIO connectors. BTW two connectors would be even better. :mrgreen: I thought about it. I used a small splitter from Mq and with an enclosure (I think) from KKrys. I made a craz...

What I am trying to do is get the final release as easy to use and as good looking as possible. That does not mean that you have to build it like that. But it would be nice if the PCB gives us the option to realize it like that. Yes, I value your advice and insights. To a large extent, the PCB desi...

Hey everyone. I wanted to inform you that I asked andyMenOne to change the title of this post. All due to the fact that my conscience was gnawing at me. The name MIDICar Remote pretty much (in my opinion) used the already existing MIDICar, which belongs to Pancio. I would not want to be accused of &...

Hi everyone. It's been a while since the last post, well. Different things, different things happen. Things were supposed to be a little different with the MIDI Remote too, and it came out.... prototype works :) The selection of the interface was supposed to be done electronically, but I did not man...

As I hate to create videos, I tell you.

Something was hatched, but my satisfaction with it is rather mediocre.

I hope that at least you will enjoy such a presentation.

I recommend reading the description under the video. It explains a lot.

If you want it, it's easy ;) XDOS is a pretty typical environment for ATARI (in my opinion) while SDX is the best environment for ATARI (in my opinion). However. You can always prepare the environment to be optimal. mcp.atr The above attachment, is an image of a floppy disk. It contains: - XDOS - Dr...

The hardware is not as bad as you think, the problem lies in its software, which although good, contains bugs :P Try this image mcp.atr . I won't hide the fact that there's a problem that, I can't deal with, but... That's rather not for this thread. In general, it would be useful, from a few posts b...

I'm starting this thread because a conversation has developed about MIDICar Player and some of the comments are falling on an innocent device, yes, innocent. Although it has its shortcomings, which I too notice, most of the faults, unfortunately, lie with MIDICar Player. If anyone is using this prog...

The software is running fine with my Midi Car but there are some midi files that are not played perfectly. Here is an example where some channels are missing. THUNDER.zip For misplayed MIDs, please very much describe what is happening - slowed playback, bad sounds, etc. What version of MCP is being...

Important note, related to MID files! . You can find a whole lot of MID files on the internet - that much is known - but, some of them can be problematic to listen to. #1 The most common problem encountered is wrong track length. This is not a bug that causes harm in listening, but it does take tim...

MIDICar Player dev-140923 . MCP dev 140923.png mcp.atr . Novelties: track time minutes:seconds view (request from @patjomki) It wasn't easy, but it worked out. For now, only the time from the beginning of the song is available. The 'T' key toggles time presentation modes: Hex MIDI Ticks, Dec MIDI T...

This will not be a simple process . Try changing the address of the MIDICar. Maybe in the $D180 space it will be ok? Try in high addresses, i.e. $Dx80-$DxE0 - the lower ones are usually occupied by other devices (they were created earlier, so they have the right to have first addresses :) ) Don't f...

Hello guys Here is a solution for other users who are not familiar with SDX (like me). . It really sucks that MIDICar player is "SpartaDos only". This makes it a lot less interesting for me. Sincerely Mathy . Hey, but that's not fair. After all, I've posted here floppy disk images where M...

Thank you for voting for my modest project. This is my first initiative of this kind and I am very pleased with the results.
The project will be updated to its current state and made public as soon as possible
