So awesome, are these Digitone patches available for download somewhere?

Is there any way to buy THIS version ? It's (by far) better than the gameboy version included in the tracklist :D

oh wow. actually double wow. Zabutom gets featured on official elektron SC page and Zetaforce!

YERZMYEY - Evelynn

The live/concert version from FOREVER party. :)

Well, theoretically ZX Spectrum (and other computers with AY chip inside) have no sampler - only a digital synthesizer. 
But when the AY is being linked to any CPU chip (Z80 in my case) - it can actually be used as a sampler too. 
With the Z80 power, ZX Spectrum 48K can play 3 channels of digital music through the AY-interface, with 4-bit quality  (btw, it can do it via ULA too, but in 1-bit quality). The SampleTracker software has no volume commands, so - to achieve delays  :) - I have to make the same sample twice: the louder one, and the more silent one, heheh. That takes RAM away, of course, which is crap because I have only 48K of RAM on ZX Spectrum ;) (even less, actually, hehhe). 
Italo-disco for life. :) 

My kind regards & respect to other digital musicians of 8-bit computers:

The song comes from "Astral Combat" album, that is downloadable from here: http://yerzmyey.i-demo.pl/

PS: To check out how Atari ST (with its far more powerful Motorola CPU) deals with AY as a sampler, check out this link: https://soundcloud.com/yerzmyey/ym-digital-draconus-a-cover

Yerzmyey - Kaminari

Format: AHX v2

Unteleported [AHX]

A remastered extended version of the song made for the 2006 Candela demo of the same name.

For once I actually have the old project files around, albeit not usable on my current workstation. I instead set up a WinXP VM with all my old plugins and DAW:s so I could export and reference the stuff I used. The MIDI notes and Kontakt instruments were easily exportable to FL Studio, and the only casualty was the Cubase-specific filter plugin Tonic which I had to replicate as well as I could. I also added back some parts that were cut out of the demo for time, and replaced some drums to improve the mix.

A shout-out must go to the z3ta+ VSTi and its great implementation of Hermode tuning. It's what makes the signature sound of this track possible, having such aggressive distorsion without all the mud that comes from equal-tempered tuning.

Digitone is a very special eight voice digital synthesizer. It combines a modernized FM implementation with a classic subtractive synthesis signal flow, making it a powerful source of highly unique tones and timbres. The FM sound generators have been optimized for a clean and efficient sound design process. Turn a few knobs, and something interesting and musically relevant is bound to happen.

Naturally, the world class Elektron sequencer is an integral part of Digitone. Four tracks are available for the internal sounds and four dedicated MIDI tracks stand ready for controlling external gear. Use the sequencer to quickly add chords or create melodies adhering to a specific scale. Add probability settings to individual notes. Create tracks with different lengths. Digitone makes it easy to create intricate and musical patterns.

Digitone Zetaforce!

This sucker was stuck in remake hell for quite some time. Sometimes there's just no magic, and I struggled for a long time with getting the groove to feel punchy but with some depth.

The secret, in this case, was adding the clav-like synth to make the groove a bit more in-your-face. I also added the solo section at the end and took some bigger swings with the harmonies.  Still a very short song (the original was around 2:20 I think), but I really think it's fine that way. It's more of a short story than a novel, if you will.

Oh, and the name. Another one of those silly puns. I just wish I had thought of "beer mitzvah" back then.
