Hi 👋🏻 Love your channel and content 👌🏻 Was wondering if you would be interested in a casio ml-1 keyboard and maybe do a feature on it 🤔 I've seen some people mod it and get crazy sounds but think you with your knowledge could make something special 😁
Wow! To my surprise today I wake up to check my subscriptions and see Look Mum No Computer using the CVDrum software I wrote some 17 years ago! Part of why I watch your channel is that I miss making electronic music from old toys and video game machines. It was an honor to see you take this software to new heights. The sounds I could get with the C language programming back then from this were pretty limited. I am curious and excited what you will do with it next. I have the sourcecode somewhere in my old files and I was at one time programming and prototyping a speech generator and synth. You will notice that when you turn on the software it has a sound sample saying "Emancanics". I was looking at using very low bit samples for other possibilities after I finished this. Sourcecode for those are somewhere in old files too. I haven't touched these in years because I have been busy with raising a family and my unrelated career. From time to time I would do youtube searches to see who was using CVDrum. It was such a wonderful surprise like I said to view my subs this morning and see you take CVDrum to a height I would have wished to do 17 years ago! Rock on!
My first comment didn't sound clear regarding that the sounds possible on the Coleco. I created as best of sounds as good as I could create with the Coleco hardware and squeezing as much into a limited memory with the z80 assembly routines built into the Coleco "BIOS". There is a lot of potential with the possibility of using this bit by bit "PCM like" sampling but the big limitation I had there was when playing the sample it tied down the whole z80. As I said and you see when starting the cartridge it says "Emancanics" a nod to the startup of "Sega" but using my "company" name. I had the Coleco "saying" things similar to the Magnovox Odessey 2 without the Voice attachment. I created syllable "samples" and had it contentate the samples and "say" a word. Have the code somewhere but never got to finish it. Lots of potential with the chip the limitations of course where in how the Coleco BIOS accesses all resources. The same sound chip is used in the Sega Master System and Game Gear. So I was looking into how to program those as well. I wanted to make something that was all software based so it wouldn't need to be a modified Colecovision. Looking forward to see what you will do with more hardware modification. Thanks for using my software in such an interesting way!
@@compyprog3575 "it tied down the whole z80." Curious if you ever played w/the sound system on the old Amiga 2000 or 500 boxes? I got the impression you could do lots w/o weighing down the cpu.
@@borjonx The amigas were a mid to late 80s thing. I never had amigas growing up, but they used a Motorola 68000 cpu and could do way more. Check out this: ruclips.net/video/i9MXYZh1jcs/видео.html Back when I made CVDrum I saw that Paul Slocum had made the Synthcart for Atari I wanted to make something for the Coleco that I could use with an Atari in concert, and similar to Paul's Synthcart without modifying the hardware. So CVDrum stretched the abilities of the Coleco as best as could be done with software only. I should finish me CVSynth and CVSpeech prototypes sometime.
it actually sounds pretty dope with FX and doubled up with a regular drum machine! Nearly every one of these vids is like "well I'm not sure it'll be that amazing but I'll try it anyway" and then the music at the end is absolute madness
Even the smoke has silver linings. The next step is to learn what broke and how to fix it. Things aren't as complicated as they're made to appear, especially with electronics of the Coleco era. You'd be surprised how easy repair can be. You get that far, and you'll be doing your own "circuit bending" in no time.
You are exactly right, sir. Doing the R&D work does not always guarantee the out come. But your work is still impressive because you are willing to use your skills to give it a go!
Nice! I actually won the contest for the splash screen graphics for CVDRUM in around 2003 so at 1:09 you can barely see my pixel art on the background :)
My first visit.... and I can say without a doubt... your knowledge... I wish I KNEW just what you have maybe forgotten in your lifetime, I'd be a brilliant man! Unreal dude!
After drilling a hole in my X-Box for a mod, being lazy and not removing the board, and then taking off a couple of capacitors as the drill dragged itself through... I recommend buying a step drill bit. - (Though, Im not sure how exactly, but despite losing a component or two the X-Box still worked fine for a few years.)
Rate and flanger with beat crasher will make a cool effect used by DJs, very audible and will allow you to add structure to what you’re playing RAISER, BREAK, DROP etc
I love how you "recycle" and upgrade/repurpose old electronics! Electronics should be required in schools again! Love it! Useful stuff! I remember when you could buy electronic parts at the corner electronics stores! Harder to find these days! I remember when building things with springy wire connectors was a rite of passage for every 8 year old! Heath kits too! Brilliant!
The one and only console my wife ever had in her house growing up was a ColecoVision unit just like this one. We ended up finding one at a games shop in Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania (US) and bought it immediately, along with its Atari-compatible expansion. I'm still bringing it up so not quite playable yet, but I'm fascinated by this curious tangent on a classic machine. Especially liked how you didn't even have to modify the base unit.
Dude, I wanted to do something like this for years, I bought the CVdrum when it released, but didnt have the circuit design skills to accomplish my goal. Thank you for putting this out there, you reminded me, and Im going to dig it out.
I don't understand much about wiring and electronics but you're awesome at breaking it down step by step and it does help me kinda get it. Too bad the Colecovision hardware wasn't up to snuff with multiple notes but that sequencer board you built is awesome. I think it's a little mad but absolutely amazing you had 80 switches for 5 notes on 16 beats. Would be totally fun on maybe some better chips behind it.
I've only ever sold one console or computer in my life and I regretted it - the ColecoVision. Sold it in 1984 for a new motorbike. God I wish I still had it.
@@crunchyfrog555 Are they that expensive? I found one with 15 games and a steering wheel for like €15 at a flea market. It was soaking wet from the rain so i think the seller just assumed it would be broken. Sorta works already, but it's glitchy from some shoddy contacts.
@@mfbfreak It depends. I'm British for a start so there may be regional differences. Car boots (flea markets) are a great way to get stuff cheap from people who have no clue, but as with everything it's random.

I can't do car boots or anything as I'm housebound so I'm kind of stuck, and that's a price I'm just not willing to pay.

5:17 Soldering technique! It looks like you tin the wires, and then add solder to the component on the board, and then heat up the wire and solder to try and push them together. I'll try that next time I'm doing some weird soldering :O
Coleco was a toy maker back in the day. Their game console was one of the better ones when it came out. It was better than the Atari. It wasn't until the Nintendo came out that Coleco was surpassed. BTW: Coleco is pronounced with all long vowels and accented on the second sylable, Coh Lee^ Coh.
@@dashingdave2665 Damn, it must have been amazing to experience those old games. It's hard to imagine how it was like to see that as brand new. I sort of know the feeling now since the Ps3, xbox 360, and wii are getting a bit old now, and it looked amazing at the time
@@zig8925 it was easily tenfold! There was only the first gen systems before: Atari and maybe some other pixelated jumble. This was the "new generation" of technology, so it was the first time that the hardware was specialised rather than just working. Another thing was that in the early to mid 1980s, it was still a rarity for families to have any home entertainment system, especially here in regional Australia; imagine like only 1 or 2 other kids in your class had some gaming system! A lot of the games were already popular titles in the arcade machine world & Colecovision had some collabs with toys and stuff too, like smurfs, cabbage patch kids, even Chuck Norris, so they had their fingers on the culture pulse for sure. It really was mind blowing at the time, its interesting now to figure out how to mess with it! Pity mum threw it away, it actually still worked. Interesting to read, but sad to hear was that colecovision was one of the companies lost to a market sector crash in like 1984 for video game machines.
@@dashingdave2665 yeah, my dad has talked about it being rare to have friends with games machines, but if they had, they all had different ones, so sometimes they'd trade. He also said that he didn't get one until he was a bit older, but still in school. It's definately not like now, where he has nearly all the old machines, a couple of new ones, and i have a lot of "new" ones. And i have also heard about the videogame crash. That was mostly atari's fault, since they didn't have quality control, but then Nintendo came along with the nes
ooh that zaxxon looks pretty nice . we got a coleco rig with a tonn of controller - track ball super controllers and std with about 12 games for 15 usd . most of the games a re pretty bad though ... i wanted one so bad when i had an atari - 1982ish ... i remember playing the demo of "smurf" in venture- a store . those were the days .
Would like to see what you can come up with using a BBC Micro (the 80s computer not the microbit). Quite a few music demos were made on the BBC that sounded pretty decent, and there's also sequencer software like MuProc.
You could get quite professional results from a BBC Micro e.g. I remember reading about Vince Clarke making tracks with the UMi sequencer. Personally, I wanted a Yamaha CX5M, but that was way beyond my budget at the time.
its cool isnt it! i got it recently and was amazed how much nicer it was than the atari 2600 for instance in build quality and just overall playability
I'm not an electricity guy I'm a software guy but I love your videos. Let me know if you need any help with modifying the drum machine ROM or if you'd like to try something from the software side. I've spent some time with the Z80.

@@LOOKMUMNOCOMPUTER it's a hefty console, very well built. Great games too. I do love the retro consoles, I have a fair collection of them
Could you add a trim pot to each note for the "pitch" and make it a note picker?
Love it
...what about an Atari 7800?? Got one sitting around..wonder what it could do..
Amazing guyman amaze
One potentiometer per row for pitch with cv modulation possibilities would be nice, so you can sequence it with your rack :)
Nice work! Pew, pew, beep!
It appears I'm now at that stage in life where I'm watching a middle aged person mucking about with synths and old formats.
Good times!
I want this in your next song! 👌😄
Look mum he’s back! 😁
What does a regular game do when you run the sequencer on it??
what're the musics used for the beginning of the video?
I'm not an electricity guy I'm a software guy but I love your videos. Let me know if you need any help with modifying the drum machine ROM or if you'd like to try something from the software side. I've spent some time with the Z80.
Add pitch knob at the end of each sequencer or one before main out
I like how the cacophonous music in the background the whole time. Must be like how it is in his head 24/7
