answer one very interesting question. I quote:  
                                                    
 "Everyone knows that there are several
standards for connecting a music coprocessor, and
also 2 music coprocessors themselves. because of
different standards, music written in AY, with

instead of a real Spectrum?"                        
                                                    
 interesting question, don't you agree!? Reasons for
Of course, there are similar questions - after all, speaking
Honestly, there is such a disadvantage at a party when
the track plays on the wrong chip or on the wrong layout
channels, and the latter sometimes leads tothe quality of the track deteriorates noticeably...                
                                                    
 so is it worth using the emulsion for
elimination of such consequences? my answer would be:
                                                    
 no, I think it’s not worth it.  Disputes about
the differences between the sounds AY and YM, it seems to me, are inappropriate,
because  the sound difference is very slightly different. A
If you take into account the channel layout, it’s better
let him play in the wrong channel layout,
than in pussy emulation. After all, we somehow lived with this
problem and have lived for several years, and now
someone is trying to make faces. It's funny...        
                                                    
    I did not hear the sound quality connected through
LPT port of AY's pussy - maybe the quality is better there.
I think it’s only appropriate to use the emulator at a party
in one case - if access to the equipment failed
connect Spec (although you can always cut the sound).

 I am a French demomaker on the Amstrad platform
CPC, but I'm also a big fan of other old
machines such as Atari, Commodore, Amiga and
zx-Spectrum.                                        
                                                    
 Most other encoders on Amstrad CPC
saw demos on Atari, Amiga or Cbch, but I think
mado who was spotted watching Spectrum
dem.  what a shame! The first time I saw Specky demo
two years ago.  I was very surprised by what I saw,
because I absolutely did not know the characteristics of iron
Specky.  at the moment I know them better, and at
watching another demo, I can give you some
explicit assessment.                                       
                                                    
 the idea of multi-effect demos (note under "multi-
"effective" demos mean trackmo), this
an idea that existed on the Amiga, Atari St, sbch,
but not on Amstrad CPC.  but why?  because
Amstrad coders prefer single-screen demos,
which are full of small or large effects. This
habits of our scene that we can't explain
;).                                                 
                                                    
 I believe that the Spectrum scene is one
of those remaining active oldschool scenes where
There are great musicians, artists, and
of course, coders. when I don't have enough ideas, or
no inspiration, I'm looking through a couple of things
Spectrum demos and I’ll take a closer look to see if it’s possible
repeat this or that effect on CPC. This method
often helps me in implementing new ideas in my
works.                                            
                                                    
 Just recently I learned about the virtual festival
"Antique toy 2oooch". I downloaded a collection of works, and
I was shocked by what I saw and heard!  such
virtual compo is a great idea that I
I'll try to implement it on my platform.           
                                                    
 Asmtrad CPC scene is a fairly old scene.
All the sceners have been here for quite a long time
minding their own business.  Spectrum stage, for
for me, this is a very young and active scene. u i
I would like to seethere are even more works and releases here,
than it is now.                                    
                                                    
 Good luck to everyone!
