picture me, 6fc6-e94c-b668-c82c, looking through bytebeats, and stumble upon a guy called "orion_aboy".
they were just so perfect, innovative, and universally likeable.
if only they hadn't deleted their reddit account without any explanation, and vanish without a trace...
then i realized... that guy is me!!!
hey guys! it's me, orion_aboy, back from the grave!!
though, i hate that name now. i'd prefer if y'all'd call me 6fc6-e94c-b668-c82c (or don't call me at all)
how do i prove that i owned that reddit account? simple! you go to the dollchan bytebeat composer,
go to "all" category, find "orion_aboy", look for "sphere", click the reddit link,
click the "my website" link, click the link "jan-miffed", go to the "pgp" repository,
download either key, save this message as a file, download gnupg if you don't have it,
then run something akin to "gpg --assert-signer [key file] --verify [message file]" in your shell.
i'll try to post all my old bytebeats here, cryptographically signed.

Hello, first time posting on this board, frankly because I just found it exists, I was wondering if anyone could replicate this song I saw on TikTok, the owner said the song was on the personal page in their bio but when I tried it, it was definitely missing a lot of what was displayed on the video.

https://www.tiktok.com/@pouyasaffari/video/7412351207756270854?_r=1&_t=ZN-8yY1ctidvdO

if anyone can write everything from the code shown in the video or somehow recreate it, it would mean a lot to me

Bytebeat, but in a C library! the only input is the javascript code (as i want the songs to be self-contained files), so to set playback mode, frequency etc, a custom metadata format is added heavily inspired by that of web browser userscripts. Multithreaded playback is enabled by default but might break some songs, songs that use complex effects like filters or reverb but want to support multithreaded playback may use the p2f/p2s functions to defer those effects to the second stage which is single-threaded and predictable wrt side effects.

Lovebyte Turbo @ Evoke 2022 (live capture with audience), YouTube.com
Hi, I made this as an entry for a 4-entry bytebeat "competition" (without voting) as part of the mentioned mini demo party "Lovebyte Turbo". It's been shown for 30 s to the crowd (check video), but you can run it for longer of course. The main requirement is to make the code not bigger than 256 bytes.
max(0,min(128,((b=(-t*1.0595**(("0010010030705503"[t>>13&15])-12+3*(t>>18&1))&255),c=(b**3)>>5,(sin(b*(.2+sin(t/6e6))*.2))*c+c)*(-t&8191)>>18)))-((sqrt(t&8183)<<6&64)*(((t>>15)&1)^(t>>13))-(t&15))*(t>2<<19)+((t&16383)*(-t>>3&511)/7e4)*random()*(t>1<<19)

Interesting event! I would love to attend such demoparty.
Your tune reminds me a doom soundtrack a bit, cool.
Also you should fix the amplitude of the drums to get rid of distortion.

Also, here the 238 bytes version:

max(0,min(128,(b=-t*1.0595**('0010010030705503'[t>>13&15]-12+3*(t>>18&1))&255,c=b**3>>5,sin(b*(.2+sin(t/6E6))*.2)*c+c)*(-t&8191)>>18))-((sqrt(t&8183)<<6&64)*(t>>15&1^t>>13)-(t&15))*(1048576<t)+(t&16383)*(-t>>3&511)/7E4*random()*(524288<t)


Added to the library!

Thanks for adding it. The drums actually got much more beefy by randomly distorting based on the hihat's amplitude.

The actual name of the track was "Visitors from the Dark Side". Could you please change it in the library?

If you like you might check out more of the different bytebeat entries released at some recent demoparties here:

One thing I've noticed about Greggman's HTML5 Bytebeat is that instead of simply setting
window.location.hash
(which would add a new entry to the history), it uses
window.location.replace()
to change the URL without adding a new history entry. This method updates the URL without creating additional entries in the browser's history stack, whereas Dollchan does
window.location.hash=`#v3b64${btoa(String.fromCharCode.apply(undefined,deflateRaw(JSON.stringify(songData)))).replaceAll("=","")}`;
every time you type a character which is annoying ('cause it floods your history). Besides, there's also
window.history.replaceState(null,"",URL)

On the other hand, could there ever be MIDI/keyboard input for playing notes in real-time? Or the ability to import audio samples (could also be raw data too for any arbitrary file) being read as arrays without having to encode them into massive strings? Maybe even microphone input for implementing effects?
5681
A global
SAMPLE_RATE
variable would be really nice.
5736
>>5681
I just realized now that the second parameter (as in return (t, sr) => …;) is used for the sample rate.

Hi guys! I made something here, it turned out pretty cool. Now it's a simple, of course not error-proof generator with cool visualization. You can listen, edit and compose on the fly. Initially available for Linux, but easily compiled for other systems, standard C99, SDL and Lua.

I'll be glad if you like it, made with love for 8-bit culture.
