- These programs require PBASIC V# 2.1 or Greater
-
- Syntax PBASIC MBACH1.BAS
- PBASIC MBDAY.BAS
- PBASIC MBETH2.BAS
- PBASIC MBACH2.BAS (Minuet:From Movie COMPUTER DREAMS)
- PBASIC MPETER1.BAS (Peter and the Wolf)
- PBASIC MKRIEGER.BAS (Johann Krieger)
-
- Please note in BDAY.BAS you can change line 6 with the editor to
- read "Happy Birthday Fred !!" or any message you choose. Also you may
- adjust the tempo in line 17 in all the songs.(see REM statement)
-
- If you have a song you'd like to see, send me a note.(Please remember
- the number of notes * time to input it= my frustration level.)

- After the latest release of PBASIC by BJ Gleason, I noticed that
- it supported DATA statements and that led me right back to my old
- Commador 64 days and trying to write music on it using POKE statements.
- Nowadays I have a full MIDI setup but can't take it with me,..until
- the Portfolio came out ! My basic is still very rusty (you'll notice
- that if you peek at the code) and I'd love some help in defining
- variables so my data statements looked like this:
-
- 1000DATA C#6,Q,D5,F,E7,H (with Q=quarter note F=Full,H=Half,etc )
-
- Instead of:
-
- 1000DATA 54,25,41,50,61,25,
-
- Is this Possible ? I'd also like to see someone re-write this
- that is more knowledgable than I in basic, to clean up the code.
-
- I just taped a piece of paper with the port #'s on it above my
- keyboard and guessed at the timing. Enjoy and let me know about related
- projects that involve Music / Graphics and the Port.

- * This will be my second set of songs for the port. The third set
- * will probally be Beattles or something more modern.I'd also like to
- * set up a "Juke Box" with a menu and you can choose which song in the
- * future and enclude all of these.
- * Please keep in mind that music on the port uses alot of battery
- * power to push that little speaker.Even so, I haven't noticed alot
- * of battery drain but,...
- * I've changed the code so they songs run faster and less "computer
- * like".You can also add a more human feel to these by altering the
- * 25,50,75,100,150, numbers in the data statements.Also Note line 13,
- * as you can change the song tempo to your liking.
