(Las of Sudden Prodigy)
FLASH Inc.
Answered questions from the newspaper ZxNews
Mikhail Belousov, famous
most spektrumists like
Amadeus Voxon.
Las: How did you, Misha, find out in
such a talent? :)
Voxon: I had it before, even
childhood, had an excellent memory of
music. It all started with
my older brother was bought a mag-
nitophone, but they didn’t even let me-
I tried to turn it on. But I'm very
I liked to listen to something. to me
I just had to remember(!)
all the music you listened to. Even
when I had the opportunity
difficulty writing on Spectrum, I
could recite many from memory
music, even their instruments
tal sound, but with the advent of
I eat all kinds of raves andfashion for them,
It turns out I'm behind the times -
neither. This is definitely degradation
(sorry if anyone likes rave
- don’t be offended!) - I’m not into it
what I can’t find for my soul, but
this is very important. By the way, opinion
Raider's matches mine. also
it’s even more or less pleasant to write
some dance techno,
but never a rave! Transitional
a link that still suits me
what I like and what I like is this
Scooter, he has a very expressive
there are real things. Well, Prodigy
I think it's hellish music
I do not accept it together with metal.
Las: When and how was it formed
your group?
Voxon: Our team organized
was established in 1994 in order to
communicate with your friends and
like-minded people who live
throughout the CIS, and, as they say,
xia, show yourself to others
look. In general, the soul is le-
sting to creativity!
Las: What is the current composition of the group?
what are its members doing in it?
us, and what they did before the
unity?Voxon: Current group members
a lot, and they pulled themselves up and
joined the group gradually.
Initially there were only two
Lovesoft (Alex Raider) &
TNB Soft (Amadeus Voxon). We
studied together in the same class and
dreamed of a computer. First we
collected a “Specialist” each, and
then along Leningradka.
We played with toys for a long time,
and then I wanted to do something...
something of your own. I (Voxon) wrote on
BASIC all sorts of programs, among
which included toys, music
desktop editor (he is also a working
tal!)... And Raider at this time
studied assembler and made cool
“things” at that time. Then
We installed it on the drive and...
United under one name
- Flash Group. Other members
were there or found us themselves
later. You need to know about their past
ask them themselves...
Alex Raider - main coder, some
gfx, hardware. Deals with
which does not take over the effects (with
Amigas, for example) - he himself
invents, produces mathematics
tical research and implementation
comes to life by building
strings of codes ;-P Is ro-
pre-chief of SounDrive 1.01
(Note: descriptionand diagram
SounDrive and software for it - "Flash
Tracker 2+" - you can pro-
sit with Lekha Voskresensky).
Amadeus Voxon - main music som-
poser. He is engaged in the fact that he
puts music to almost everything
software produced by our group
sing. He is also no stranger to coding.
e-programming, as well as
drawing all kinds of graphics. Mu-
the language of the old direction - what--
between disco and techno. Now
has the opportunity to open up
RS. Was the developer of SounDrive
1.02, Vicomm debugger-compatible
this modem in Novosibirsk, and
"rejuvenated" almost the entire group.
Next come people, later
those who joined our group:
Mg.Nik - coder, gfx, music. You-
learned fast coding methods
nia. Good, but doesn't draw much. Pi-
plays techno and rave music.
MCF - coder. He found us himself. Him
belongs to the honor of the founder
IRIS Ultrademo. Good coding
shaft Now I have irrevocably passed
to the PC platform,where I became interested
repent with music.
Fikus-Pikus - general swapper.
Maintains communication with external mi-
rum Great connoisseur of AU-3-8910
(12), and also sells
eat disks. Recently selected coordinator
group speaker.
Slack Den - music maker. Writes
music, but so far little and slowly.
But we hope that he will soon be replaced
nit of tired Voxon...
Dr.Bars - intro programmer. Pi-
sheds intrusions for games that
then floppy.
Crack&Burn - hardware. Together with
Voxon led the development of the modem.
Developed by SounDrive 1.5. In this
the next moment develops the circuit
ADC.
Burst (ex-SVS) - cool FDC prog-
rammer Quite difficult to write
such protection as can be written
Damn it!Mystery - coder. Currently
time publishes the magazine "Flash"
Time", which will soon
will appear in St. Petersburg. Different
multitasking...
That's the entire cast,
perhaps there will be more further.
Las: What is he doing now?
FLASH?
Voxon: Currently full
work is being completed
IRIS Ultrademo, which will appear
in the near future. Already under-
getting ready to go out first
issue of Flash Time magazine. A
so - a scattered bunch of all sorts
small projects that, vi-
Dimo, they will hang themselves... But they are preparing
something else grandiose, but this
secret for now...
Las: What computers do you use?
do you use in your work?
Voxon: A variety of...three "Le-
ningradki", two "Profi", two
"Scorpion ZS-256", "Pulsar"
444", and even "Pentagon-128". All
they are equipped with SounDrive v1.0x,
Flashmodem v1.x (2400 Eggrog fre-
e). And on Voxon's computer
costs 3.5" FDD and a second
AU-3-8910(12), which provides
it has 6 channels of FM sound. (Ports -
1: #FFFD,#BFFD 2:CFFD,#9FFD.)
Las: how are things going now?
Flash Group and what are the prospects
do they “shine” for her?
Voxon: The group is deprived of everything
financing at least
software writers. Developers
iron do not have the means to buy
purchasing parts and research.
People are forced to look for work
which has an unfavorable effect
on creativity. Apparently the group
collapse awaits: he intends to be the first
leave it Voxon. He has a lot
just behind what he did,
as they say, out of kindness
soulful. But unfortunately, our
no one values work, and if not
the issue of financing will be resolved
vania - the group will break up.
Las: What is the current situation with"Spectrum" in Novosibirsk?
Voxon: Deplorable. There is no longer con-
tor who would deal with it
(does not compare with time two
years earlier). Users
is getting smaller and smaller
and creative groups... Hmm... Vi-
Dimo, we're the only ones left.
Las: What can you wish for?
Terek spektrumists?
Voxon: First of all, of course,
health, success, enthusiasm,
which is so lacking now!
That's all. If you have any
any questions for Amadeus
Las: What can you wish for?
Terek spektrumists?
Voxon: First of all, of course,
health, success, enthusiasm,
which is so lacking now!
That's all. If you havearose
any questions for Amadeus
Voxon, then write to the editor. And
yet. Voxon asks for help: everyone,
who knows anything about the company "La-
Jon Technologies" call me
by phone: (812) 527-85-45.
R.S. Coming soon to St. Petersburg
"IRIS UD", which is written like this
already two years and takes two dis-
ka! We're waiting...
