It's MML time.

well, I have some drumkit samples that are FROM an 8 bit mono drum machine, so we can try that out next.

We may end up having much better luck fiddling with the percussion in the bios stuff instead.   I figured out a nice kick, and snare so far.


Getting close to a hihat, so next is some tomtoms.   Those will probably be the hardest

Hey, you're the one who wanted the "sampled drums, like in bonk" :-) I still don't think its gonna sound great, but I've been surprised by some of the stuff you do before.
And yeah, from a practical view, I do think the built-in drum stuff is gonna give acceptable drums, and for far less space than a sampled set. But If I get the voice stuff working, and it sounds okay, I'm gonna have our pac-dude scream when he dies. Even if it takes an entire 8K bank and 4 songs to do it :-)

lol.


well on the bright side, the drums in Bonk are pretty simple little bongo clicky congo drums.... they are a bit thinned out and short to begin with, so theyd probably be the easiest of all to sample and get playing nicely.

And I need the Bonk sound engine anyways, so, this works out just fine
