I agree with Patriek here,
I don't see the benefits of removing the FST-convertor.

I think it's worth the efforts of discussing these methodologies with all
hardware
developers. Of course, in the beginning, this discussion will not be easy
since most FGPA developer have already put a lot of efforts in their work,
and
they probably don't feel like changing to a different methodology for
nothing.

But the efforts of changing to a standardized methodology could lead to
rapid
realisation of a one-chip MSX. At least, that's the way I see it.

Communicating with Japanese isn't always easy. The offer in the MSX-PRINT
was a way of saying they DO appreciate your skills I guess ;)

On www.msx.org we currently have a small discussion about the developers of
FPGA devices.
Quote from me: "Personally, I think the Japanese and Brazilian
FPGA-developers should contact each other in order to make one big and VERY
useful FPGA-chip (which could be used as a basis for/in the one-chip MSX!).

Re: [MSX] MERIDIAN MIDI MSX

2002-08-11 Thread Snout

Meridian is not intended to make music for video games
it is meant to be used as a MIDI-editor.

So if you want to make music for games.. use Moonblaster ;)

(or SME3, or Anma's Musiceditor, or Musica, or Synth Saurus
or .. or... or... or...)
