pet (format) View HTML Version
 

The '[b]Commodore PET'[/b] was a 1977 personal computer by Commodore International. Some versions of the PET came with "beeper" sound - a 1-channel speaker used for sound generation. That's what we're here to make music for, similar to the '[[zxbeep (format)[ZXBeep format] or '[[channelf (format)[Channel F]. A converter is used to make music in an .xm file that gets turned into a .prg program readable by the PET (or an emulator).

'[#[Tools]
You will need both the '[l[https://kleeder.de/files/botb/pet/64tass-1.56.2625.zip[64tass] assembly compiler and the '[l[https://kleeder.de/files/botb/pet/thingscantpet.zip[thingscantpet] .xm converter to make music for this format.

'[#[Restrictions on submit]
Submission should be a .prg file playable on the Commodore PET (or in an emulator).

'[#[Playback (for voting)]
Open the .prg in your emulator of choice (such as VICE) to hear the song. Make sure you have enough RAM chosen (default is 8KB)!
