Jeepers. Back in my day I typed raw hex into the assembler!

Sounds good, congratulations!

Here are a few of mine from from back in the day, from The Decade Demo, Atari ST (YM chip). Back then there were no trackers, so instead I had to write the synth myself first!

And a Quartet tune from 'Things Not To Do...' Samples, and sequenced, but we rewrote the audio driver:

I enjoyed those a lot, thanks for sharing them! It's still possible to write synths yourself in LSDJ (though I'm sure it's a bit more limited), and it certainly allows for a personification of the synth.

That said, what you've done is much more impressive! My roommate enjoyed it a lot too.
