WIZZCAT xPROUDLY PRESENT THE A WHOLE LOT OF NOTHING DEMO. IT HAS BEEN BROUGHT TO YOU
BY QYV x (THAT'S PRONOUNCED KIVE FOR THOSE IN THE KNOW) THE RATHER NATTY LOGO WAS
PLANNED, DEVISED, PUT INTO PLANNING STAGES, ORGANISED FOR IT'S CINEMA DEBUT, SCANNED FOR THE FIVE PART
MINI-SERIES AND THEN DRAWN BY EITHER RAINBOW OR PIXIE RED DEVIL DREW THE AMAZINGLY COOL FONT!!
SPECIAL NOTE MUST GO TO THE MEGA COOL VIBES RUFFLING THE AIR-FLOW, WRITTEN BY MY GOOD FRIEND AND THE
KING OF THE KEYBOARD THE CYBORG (SOUND OF SCREAMING WOMEN TEARING OFF THEIR KNICKERS AND THROWING
THEM ON STAGE) IT'S CALLED UNIVERSE SCOTT IS THE BEST AMIGA MUSICIAN AROUND (HE'S BEEN PLAYING
KEYBOARDS SINCE HE WAS AN EMBRIO BE WARNED WHEN READING THIS SCROLL TEXT 1. THE SPELLING IS UTTER
CRAP 2. I'VE FIXED THE BUG IN THE WIBBLE CODE SO THAT IT DOESN'T GLITCH ANY MORE (YIPPEE) SOME WORDS
NOW ABOUT ME, SCOTT AND THIS DEMO BOTH SCOTT AND I ARE NEW TO THE GROUP, STIGA AND I MET ON THE TRAIN
HOME FROM THE SHOPPER SHOW A COUPLE OF MONTHS AGO (BACK WHEN WE WERE GENE-STEALERS). AS YOU CAN
PROBABLY TELL I AM A CODER, I'VE BEEN CODING FOR A WHILE BUT BELIEVE IT OR NOT THIS IS THE ONLY DEMO
I HAVE EVER FINISHED. I'VE WRITTEN LOTS OF CODE TO PERFORM DIFFERENT THINGS BUT I NEVER SEEM TO
BOTHER MUCH IN FULL BLOWN DEMOS AS I GET BORED VERY QUICKY ONCE AN IDEA WORKS I TEND TO MOVE ONTO
SOMETHING ELSE NOW THAT I HAVE BOTHERED TO FINISH THIS DEMO I AM ABOUT TO START A PERSONAL PROJECT
FOR SCOTT. IT'S A SIXTEEN CHANNEL MUSIC EDITOR. THE ACTUAL MULTI-VOICE CODE AND SOFTWARE PITCH CHANGE
NECESSARY IS VERY EASY TO PERFORM AND I HAVE ALREADY WRITTEN THE CODE (I GAVE IT TO STIGA SOMETIME AGO)
NOW I'VE JUST GOT THE BORING BIT OF WRITING THE ACTUAL EDITOR, IT'S GOT TO BE OS FRIENDLY OF COURSE !
WHERE DID I GET THE NAME QYV ? WELL FROM THE DEEP AND MYSTERIOUS TOMBS OF A PIERS ANTHONY BOOK, QYV
IS ACTUALLY THE LARGEST PIRATE ORGANISATION IN THE UNIVERSE AND IS BASED AROUND THE MOONS OF JUPITER.
SCOTT TELLS ME THAT A LOT OF YOU GUYS OUT THERE HAVE ASKED HIM TO PRODUCE ACID TRACKS FOR YOUR DEMOS.
I CAN REMEMBER HE ACTUALLY WROTE SUCH A TRACK ON HIS KORG M1 ONCE AND PLAYED IT TO AN ACID FREAK WHO
THOUGHT IT WAS TOO COMPLEX !!! SAYS A LOT FOR ACID MUSIC DOESN'T IT ??? SCOTT AND I PERSONALLY ARE
INTO HEAVY ROCK AND I LOVE THRASH HOWEVER YOU HAVE TO BE CAREFUL ABOUT THRASH AS MOST OF THE BANDS
ARE UTTER SHITE. THE BEST BEING :- ANTHRAX, METALLICA, TESTAMENT, MEGADETH AND TANKARD. DAVID LEE ROTH
IS PROBABLY THE BEST ROCK ARTIST AND GUITARISTS SUCH AS STEVE VAI, JOE SATRIANI AND YNGWIE MALMSTEEN
ARE JUST TOTALLY COOL THIS DEMO HAS BEEN A SOURCE OF PROBLEMS TO WRITE, ORIGINALLY THERE WAS RATHER A
NIFTY SPECTRUM ANALYSER PLAYING WHICH USED DUAL PLAYFIELD, BUT ALAS WHAT WITH THE WIBBLY SINE-SCROLLER
IT WAS NOT TO BE AND IT WILL HAVE TO WAIT FOR ANOTHER DEMO AN INTERESTING PROBLEM WAS THE SPOT LIGHTS.
BASICALLY WHEN THE MUSIC GOT COMPLICATED THE ROUTINE MESSED UP I TRACKED THE PROBLEM DOWN TO THE CLEAR
SCREEN FUNCTION AND FOUND IF I INCREASED THE SIZE THE BLITTER HAD TO CLEAR THE DEMO RAN PERFECTLY !!!
WEIRD OR WHAT ?!? I'M GOING TO PISS OFF KNOW COS I'VE GOT TO GO TO WORK NOW AND WHEN I GET BACK SCOTT
AND I ARE GOING TO HAVE A BB GUN FIGHT SO ADIOS, KEEP CODING AND DON'T FORGET DROWN YOUR BLOODY DOG
(OR BETTER STILL SHOOT THE BASTARD) BUGGER THE GRRETINGS, CHECK OUT THE MENU SCROLLTEXT FOR THEM
