  To questions the newspaper ZxNews
meets Mikhail Belousov,
known to most spektrumistov as> Amadeus Voxon.

Las:> How are you, Mike, found
in itself a talent? :)

> Voxon:> I have before, even on
childhood, had a great memory for music. It all started
with the fact that my older
my brother bought a tape recorder, and
I was not even allowed to
include. But I'm very fond of
listen to anything. I
just had to remember (!) all proslushanuyu music. Even when I
the opportunity to write on Spectrum'e, I could
shift from memory many Muzychka, even their instrumental sound, 
but with and the appearance of any raves

Fashion on them, I, it turns out behind the times. This
definite degradation (sorry if anyone rave like it - do not be 
offended!) - I It is nothing for the soul can not find

I can, but it is very important.
Incidentally, the view from the Raider
my matches. Also, more
more or less pleasant to write some dance techno, but also rave 
- never! Transitional same link, which still suits me

and like me, so it
Scooter, he had very expressive things to eat. Well
Prodigy, I think hell
music, which, together with
metal do not accept.

> Las:> When and how did your group?

> Voxon:> Our team was organized in 1994 in order to 
communicate with their friends and associates who live in

all CIS countries, and, as they say, to see and be
others to see. A voobschedusha lying to creativity!

> Las:> What is the current composition
group, what they do in it
its members and that they are up to these days before the 
merger? 

> Voxon:> current members of the group a lot and they pulled up 
and joined the group gradually. Originally

there were only two people:
Lovesoft (Alex Raider) '
TNB Soft (Amadeus Voxon). We
studied together in one class and dreamed of a computer.
First, we collected ourselves to
"The Specialist", and then
and "Leningradki. Much and
long time to play with toys and
then wanted to make
something his own. I (Voxon)
written in BASIC any
applets, including
there were also toys, musical
editor (he still worked!) ... A Raider in this
time studied Assembler, and
scarp at the time
"Pieces". Then we set
to drive and ... Grouped together under one name -
Flash Group. Other members were or were we
found to have later. About their
past need to ask
them ...

 > Alex Raider> - main coder,
some gfx, hard-ware. Is committed to not assume the effects 
(with the Amiga, for example) - he comes up with them, makes 
matemeticheskie research and brings to life by building a 
string of codes, P Is an ancestor

SounDrive 1.01

 > Amadeus Voxon> - main music
composer. Is committed to
that composes virtually the entire software, produced by our 
group. Not alien to him and кодированиепрограммирование, as 
well as drawing all sorts of graphics. Music of the old lines - 
something between disco and techno. Now has the opportunity to 
open up the PC. Was developer SounDrive 1.02, debugger 
Vicommsovmestimogo modem in Novosibirsk, and "rejuvenated" 
almost the whole group.



  This is followed by people who joined later to our
Group:

 > Mr.Nik> - coder, gfx, music.
Learned faster coding methods. Good, but not enough
draws. He writes music in the style
techno and rave.

 > MCF> - coder. Sam found us.
To Him belongs the honor of the founder of IRIS Ultrademo. 
Well-coded. Now irrevocably passed to the platform PC, where he 
became fond of music. 

 > Fikus-Pikus> - general swapper. Liaises with
outside world. A great admirer of AY-3-8910 (12), and also 
sells CDs. Recently selected group coordinator. 

 > Slack Den> - music maker.
Wrote the music, but there is little
and slow. But we hope that
He will soon replace the tired
Voxon'a ...

 > Dr.Bars> - intro programmer.
Intrushki wrote to the games, which are then disketiruet.

 > Crack 'Burn> - hardware.
Together with Voxon'om led the development of a modem. Developed
SounDrive 1.5. There are currently developing a scheme
ADC.

 > Burst (ex-SVS)> - cool FDC
programmer. Rather difficult
write a defense of what
can write it!

 > Mystery> - coder. Currently, publishes a magazine
"Flash Time", which will soon appear in St. Petersburg. 
Different multi-tasking ... 


  That's all acting
composition may further be more.

> Las:> What is being undertaken
FLASH?

> Voxon:> There are currently well underway completion
work on the IRIS Ultrademo,
which will appear shortly. Already prepared to exit the first
issue of the magazine "Flash Time".
And so - a bunch of disparate
all small projects
which apparently hanged himself ...
But being prepared is something grandiose, but it's still a 
secret ... 

> Las:> What kind of computers you
use in your work?

> Voxon:> All kinds of ... Three
"Leningradki," two "Profi",
two "Scorpion ZS-256",
Pulsar 444 "and even" Pentagon-128 ". All are equipped with
SounDrive v1.0x, Flashmodem
v1.x (2400 Error free). And in
computer Voxon'a More
is 3.5 "FDD and the second
AY-3-8910 (12), which provides him with 6 channels of FM sound. 
(Ports - 1: # FFFD, # BFFD 2: CFFD, # 9FFD.)


> Las:> As things stand now
in Flash Group and what prospects it "shine"?

> Voxon:> The group lacks every kind of funding for
At least napisateli
software. Developers iron
do not have money to buy parts and research.
People are forced to look for a job that has suffered at work.
Apparently, the group is waiting for the collapse: the first 
intended away from it Voxon. He

a lot of things behind that
he did, as they say,
the goodness of dushvnoy. But
Unfortunately, our work has no
values, and if not resolved
the issue of funding -
group disintegrate.

> Las:> What is the current situation
with Spectrum in Novosibirsk?

> Voxon:> deplorable. No longer
firms that they would deal with (do not compare with the time 
two years earlier). Users is becoming

less and less, and creative teams ... Hmm ... Apparently,
Once we left.

> Las:> What you wish to Petrograd spektrumistam?

> Voxon:> First, of course, good health, success, enthusiasm, 
which is now so not enough!



  That's it.

 P.S. Coming soon in St. Petersburg will be "IRIS UD", which is 
written for two years and has two CDs! Zhdem's ...
