The Chipophone is a homemade 8-bit synthesizer, especially suited for live chiptune playing. It has been built inside an old electronic organ.
All the original tone-generating parts have been disconnected, and the keys, pedals, knobs and switches rerouted to a microcontroller which transforms them into MIDI signals.
Those are then parsed by a second microcontroller, which acts as a synthesizer.
Here some video examples:

CBM-Command is a disk manager for the Commodore 64 / Commodore 128 / Commodore VIC20 and Commodore C16 computers. It is written like Norton Commander or Midnight Commander, but is much simpler due to the target platforms. Both the C128/C64/VIC20/C16 have their own native version of the application.
Release Notes – Version 2.0 Beta 2 – 2011-01-01
Changes:
- (64, 128, Plus/4) Changed the timing code back to version 1.7 because the clock() function in cc65 does not reflect accurate timing.
- (VIC, PET) The time(NULL) function is not available on these targets and thus had to be removed.
- Help Hot-Key Fixed – Now when you press either F1 or H you get the help file (if the CBM-Command disk is in the drive you started CBM-Command from).
- Updated Help File – the new help file by popmilo has been incorporated into the disk.
- Directory navigation hot keys fixed.
Known Issues:
- None – if you have a bug to report, PLEASE do so to the CBM-Command website or mailing list.
