How're we gonna end war and famine and shit if calling it "Zee" instead of "Zed" is some kind of big deal, eh?

I'll have to dig up the CD from some of the boxes since I've moved to
a new home a month ago and things are still lost everywhere

I don't remember how much material i shot after the seminar but it was
definitely more than the 4-5 minutes in the clip. And with full framerate
with no lossy MPG -encoding.

I will try to find it this weekend and post the results.

Cool. I'd like to see a longer clip.

As Rob.H was holding some pieces of paper with examples of he's music code.. Has he ever published those anywhere?

I don't think there are official publications of that source from Rob himself..

There is however this http://sid.kubarth.com/articles/rob_hubbards_music.txt
Rob Hubbard's Music: Disassembled, Commented and Explained

Rob Hubbard created a superb music routine from the very first tune which was released (Confuzion). Furthermore, Rob used this routine to make music for a very long time, only changing it _slightly_ over time. The sourcecode that I present here was used (with slight modifications) in: Confuzion, Thing on a Spring, Monty on the Run, Action Biker, Crazy Comets, Commando, Hunter Patrol, Chrimera, The Last V8, Battle of Britain, Human Race, Zoids, Rasputin, Master of Magic, One Man & His Droid, Game Killer, Gerry the Germ, Geoff Capes Strongman Challenge, Phantoms of the Asteroids, Kentilla, Thrust, International Karate, Spellbound, Bump Set and Spike, Formula 1 Simulator, Video Poker, Warhawk or Proteus and many, many more!
All you would need to do to play a different music is to change the music data at the bottom, and a few lines of the code.

Thanks for the Link that was a very interesting read too bad I'm reading it 20+ years later.

If you need to have it hosted anywhere I could be of assistance...

Just give me a howl...
