Hertz Overload - new AGA demo

Just a quick heads-up to let you know that I have just released a new demo for AGA Amigas.
This one focuses on delivering very high quality music also on base machines equipped with just a mass storage device (which is needed to stream the huge amount of audio data).
"Very high quality translates" to: 2 true stereo channels, 14 bit resolution and 70937.9 Hz sample rate.

Those who can't (bother to) run the demo on an actual Amiga can see it in this video (beware: due to technical reasons, the audio of the video has a sample of rate of just 44100 Hz): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9zDJEW_2qT0

Very nice demo!

@khayoz

Thank you!

@ saimo

sweet Demo! I can really here the quality of the music when played through my amp and 14" old school Boston Acoustics speakers

@328gts

See if your speakers like this improved version better ;)


@all

I justed released an update that features even higher quality music - which is quite relevant for a music-centric demo ;)

CHANGELOG

v1.2 (10.6.2024)
* Improved streamed music: made arpeggio and strumming guitars stronger in the mix; managed to eliminate some more peaks, thus exploiting more the resolution and increasing the overall quality; made an overlapping solo guitar enter from the middle-left and then move to the center gradually; converted data with an updated and more precise custom converter.
* Increased the volume level of the arpeggio guitar in the tracked music.
* Improved a few pixels.
* Extended and fixed manual.

In the afternoon I discovered that the new music was way too noisy, so I realized that something must have gone wrong. It turned out that the last-minute changes to the custom converter were totally ill-advised and also buggy, so the converted music was affected by a horrible noise!
I have uploaded the fixed version now - download from the usual place: https://retream.itch.io/hertz-overload
