Boot sideW} 2 of this disk for my current complete range of used software, and my full PD list.-----------------------------------DoX}n't forget about Digi-Studio! A PD demo disk of Digi-Studio is available from me as PD118.Digi-Studio Information---------Y}-------------- Digi-Studio is a new piece of software for the Atari XL/XE series. It allows you to play music usiZ}ng real sounds which have been digitized. Digi-Studio comes with a keyboard player and tune player. The keyboard player[} lets you use your computer keyboard like a piano keyboard to play tunes, but using real sounds, rather than computer-generat\}ed noises as is usually the case with this type of program. You can have 3 sounds in memory and can quickly change between th]}em while playing tunes. The keyboard player has responsive keys, so that the sound will only play for as long as you hold the^} key down. Just like a synthesizer!! The Digi-Studio disk contains many sounds for use with the keyboard player, ranging from_} church bells, to pig grunts, to a baby crying, to screams, and lots of synthesizer sounds. In fact around 25 sounds in all. `}Why buy a synthesizer when your Atari can do the same?! The tune player allows you to play pre-programmed tunes using aa}ny of the available sounds on the disk. A few tunes have been included on the disk for you to play. Digi-Studio comes ob}n a DS/SD disk, and includes a printed manual. It is aimed at everyone, whether musically inclined or not! You may just want c}to use it for fun, or compose a tune with it! The comprehensive user manual makes it a joy to use! Digi-Studio will onld}y work on XL/XE computers with 64K RAM. No extra hardware is required. The sound samples just play through your TV speaker!e} The full Digi-Studio package costs just 5pounds (in the UK), or 7pounds in other countries (paid in UK funds) including f}printed manual. Order your copy today! Now available! Package 1.5, offering even more! A separate info sheet is encloseg}d. The order form for both packages of Digi-Studio are at the bottom of this second sheet.Digi-Studio Package 1.5---------h}--------------Digi-Studio Package 1.5 is a new set of programs which form part of the Digi-Studio suite of programs and utii}lities. It is NOT an upgrade to package 1. It is intended to be used in conjunction with package 1.Package 1.5 contains twoj} new programs for Digi-Studio: The Sample Editor and the Tune Compiler. Also included are 26 new samples and 18 new tunes fork} use with Digi-Studio.The Sample Editor allows you to edit existing Digi-Studio samples, and also allows you to create yourl} own by using a joystick. The Sample Editor has facilities for reversing samples (playing them backwards), copying pages of sm}ample to other pages of sample, and also contains facilities to edit samples very accurately using a joystick. This edit facin}lity also allows you to create your own samples. By using all the supplied facilities, you can create some very weird sounds!o} You can then save your samples to disk and use them in the Keyboard an Tune Players in package 1.The Tune Compiler createsp} stand-alone Basic program modules for including Digi-Studio tunes in your own Basic programs. The resulting modules are outpq}ut in LIST format for merging into your own Atari Basic or Turbo-Basic programs. The modules are self-contained and do not rer}quire any Digi-Studio program to play. Just imagine your game starting with a chorus of God Save the Queen in pig grunts, chus}rch bells, electric guitar, ..., or your own sounds created using the Sample Editor!Also included on the disk are 26 new sat}mples, including pan pipes, various guitars, dog woof, organs, synth sounds, and lots of effects! Also, 18 new tunes are suppu}lied for playing with the Tune Player, or for compiling using the Tune Compiler. These include: Yesterday, Hey Jude, View to v}a Kill, God Save the Queen, Happy Birthday, This Old Man, and many classics.The manual is in A5 booklet format, and has beew}n typeset using LaTeX, and printed using an Agfa Laser printer. The clear instructions make the software a joy to use!Packax}ge 1.5 is not much use on its own, so will be sold along with package 1. The two packages together will cost 8pounds includiny}g P&P. However, if you bought package 1 before package 1.5 became available, then you can buy package 1.5 separately for 4pouz}nds inc. P&P. Just fill in the order form below and send it with a cheque/PO payable to DEAN GARRAGHTY. In other countries pa{}ckages 1 and 1.5 together will cost 10pounds paid in UK funds.-----CUT-----Please send me (tick revelant box):Package 1&1|}.5[ ] Package 1 only[ ] Package 1.5 only[ ].I enclose a cheque/PO for ______NAME:______________________________ADDRESS}}:________________________________________________________________________________________________________P.CODE:___________~}___Dean Garraghty, 62 Thomson Ave, Balby, Doncaster, DN4 0NU, England.A note for non-UK customers.

Tidied by Dean Garraghty.============================= }======* CAROLYN'S CORNER by Carolyn Hoglin, Orlando, Florida===================================Reprinted from the Mid-Fl }orida Atari Computer Club Newsletter, 3/91Q--> How can I prepare a document with AtariWriter Plus that will be compatible }with WordStar or another word processing program on a 16-bit computer?A--> We have two problems here: The textfile itself }(the Atari document) and the medium (the Atari disk). Both are essentially incompatible with a 16-bit computer. This is not t }o say that the job cannot be done. It just takes a little doing.Begin by typing your document into AtariWriter Plus as usu }al, but DO NOT use any internal formatting commands, such as for centering, expanded print, underlining, etc. It doesn't mat }ter how the formatting is set up on the Global Format screen because these instructions won't be used anyway.When you have }proofread your text, and everything is A-OK, save the file as usual. Now go back to the edit screen. From the top-of-file, }press [START]-S. When prompted for your search string, hold down the [SHIFT] key and hit [ESC] twice, followed by a [RETURN] }. Then press [START]-R and enter the replace string as [CTRL]-M [CTRL]-J followed by the usual [RETURN]. The string will lo }ok like a stylized "MJ" and in ASCII it translates to a carriage return and a line feed.Now for the magic: press [OPTION]- }G and all those Atari return symbols (ASCII 155) will be replaced by ASCII 13 and 10.This modified file must be saved from }the AtariWriter Plus menu by pressing [CTRL]-S to SAVE ASCII. Give the file the extender of ".ASC" so that you will not get }it mixed up with the first saved file. It's a good idea to keep both files, because if you want to edit the text later, it wi }ll be much easier to work from the first file - and then do the global-replace bit and ASCII SAVE again - than to work in the } ASCII file itself. (The latter appears to be one huge paragraph when viewed in AtariWriter Plus.)Well, now we have solved } our first problem. We have a file that, byte for byte, will be compatible with most word processing programs on 16-bit comp }uters. But this file is still on our Atari-formatted disk (single, enhanced, or double density) which will not be readable b }y a 16-bit computer. There are several ways to handle this:1) If you have both computers yourself and also a null modem, y }ou can boot each computer with its own terminal program and send the Atari ASCII file to the 16-bit (Atari, IBM, or what-have }-you) computer.2) If you have both computers, but do not have a null modem, you can upload the ASCII file from your Atari t }o a BBS that features F-Mail. Then call the BBS back with your 16-bit computer and download the same file. Be sure to erase }the file from the BBS once you have downloaded it.3) If the converted file is for someone other than yourself, you can eith }er contact your friend directly via modem; or you can upload the file to a BBS, where he or she can download it to the 16-bit } computer.Finally, you'll have a 16-bit file on a 16-bit disk, which can be loaded into any word processor and formatted to } suit your needs.If you have any questions concerning word processing in general or AtariWriter Plus in particular, send th }em to the editor of the MFACC Bulletin. We'll try to publish the answers promptly.[Or use one of the programs for the PC }to read Atari True DD format disks - Ed.

It is written in Turbo-Basic so is for XL/XE only in 64K. A copy of T:*}urbo is on the disk and boots automatically.During boot-up you a presented with two opening pages. One details who it is by:+}. It doesn't mention you have to press any key to continue loading, but if you don't it will sit there all day! The second sc:,}reen is a nice graphics screen (probably created using the package itself) with some nice music. START is pressed to get to t:-}he main disk menu.The package is split into a series of separate programs: Graphics, Photo-Convertor, Editor, 62er-converto:.}r, and Hardcopy 1029.Graphics--------This program is a simple mode 8 graphics creator using a joystick. Press the START :/}key and a menu pops up. This has: Freehand, Lines, Circles, Oval, Fill, Points, Script, Load/Save picture, Mirror, Char set, :0}Directory, Back to Menu.It works in much the same way as any other drawing program.Photo-Convertor---------------In th:1}is package a "photo" is a small picture which can be merged into your text (or you text merged around your photo). To create :2}a "photo" file, you use this program. It has options to convert a picture to photo, photo to picture, and page to picture.T:3}he most important is the first of these options. This allows you to load in a picture file created with the Graphics program :4}(or from any other program which outputs mode 8 pictures in the same way), and select an area of the picture to convert into :5}a photo file. This is done by using a joystick. You simply mark the 4 corners of the area to "cut out" and it's done! The pho:6}to file can then be used in the Editor program.Editor------This is the most important program. This is where you create :7}your pages. A page can have both text and graphics (photo files). The text can be 40 cols. normal height, 80 cols. normal, 40:8} cols. double height, and 80 cols. double.Pressing SELECT and any key brings up a menu. This has options to: Load page, Sav:9}e page, Take photo, Directory, Load char set, Return, Main menu, Erase page.These are all simple to use. When we Take a pho::}to, we can position it at the correct position on the page using a joystick. It's wise to load in your photo first then type :;}the text around it, because the photo positioning is a bit hit and miss. You can only type in text here. You can't load text :<}files in. You can have as many photos on a page as will fit. Also, all control graphics symbols are available. A few have bee:=}n re-defined as maths symbols.You are supposed to be allowed to load in new fonts, but I can't seem to be able to get this :>}to work. However, the default font is quite acceptable.Don't forget that you are designing a page in landscape (i.e. length:?} ways), and it will print out like this too.The Editor has NO error trapping. If you type something wrong, or make some oth:@}er mistake it just stops and you get a Basic-generated error message.62er-Convertor--------------Some page files may be :A}a strange sector length. If this is so, they won't load into utilities expecting 62 sector format files. This utility will co:B}nvert your page into a 62 sector file.Hardcopy 1029-------------This is a printer dump for the 1029 printer. For US read:C}ers, this printer was only sold in the UK and Europe. It's a tacky looking thing which produces awful output using a non-stan:D}dard pin arrangement.However, don't dispair! On side 2 of the disk you get two Epson printer dump programs which will dump :E}pages (in 62 sector format) created using the Editor. You can also print it on any utility you have which loads mode 8 62 sec:F}tor files. I use SEEPIC (PD41 in my catalogue) to print the pages to my XMM801 and the output looks very good.Other things :G}on the disk------------------------As well as the programs mentioned, you also get a very brief docs file, lots of fonts, :H}and lots of photo files. This is a German program, so the docs have been written (in English) by somebody else and are very b:I}rief. Be prepared to spend some time experimenting.Conclusions and Uses--------------------The Digital Editor is a VERY :J}simple package. But, it does its job as well as can be expected.I have used this package for professional purposes on a num:K}ber of occasions. I used it to create the covers for the Digi-Studio manuals. Also, I used it to create some slides for an ov:L}erhead projector for a seminar I gave at university on sound sampling. I had a graph along with text around it on one slide, :M}and a bulleted list of key points on another. I also used it to create 10 slides for a group presentation to industry which I:N} was involved in.To create the slides, I first designed them using the Editor. I converted them to 62 sector format using t:O}he 62er-convertor, then printed them to A4 using SEEPIC. They were then photocopied onto a special paper, and finally printed:P} onto film slides.I recommend The Digital Editor to anybody who wants an inexspensive way to create quite nice looking page:Q}s with both text and graphics.

However, I think it is worthwhile knowing a little more about it than the details>T} given in the PD catatlogue.I wrote DMS in 1989. The version discussed here is 2.00b. Version 1.75a was sold up until Novem>U}ber 1989 when 2.00b was ready. The two versions are quite similar, so only 2.00b is in the PD. DMS was originally sold commer>V}cially in the UK and US.

A>Y}ll programs use the console keys for selecting options from a set of option boxes.Main section------------This program a>Z}llows you to create and play tunes using digitized sounds. You can also load in new sounds. You can also load and save tunes.>[} "Tunes" in DMS is perhaps a bit of an untruth. The "notes" don't play in real musical pitch. They are just different play ra>\}tes for the samples. "Notes" are made up of a 4 character code of letters and numbers describing various things about the "no>]}te". A very simple editor is built-in to type in your tune. But, to edit it you must modify a Basic program. In DMS all tunes>^} are stored as Basic programs which are just lots of REM statements. You just look for your note and modify it before saving >_}the program back to disk. A little knowledge of Basic is advised.Three samples can be in memory at a time, and your tune ca>`}n switch between them as it plays. You can also load in new samples.The main section also has a utils menu which allows you>a} to delete and rename files, as well as format disks, and take directories.From the main section, you can also load in the >b}other programs which make up the package.Compiler--------This program will convert your DMS tunes into a stand-alone Bas>c}ic program which allows you to play music using digitized sounds in your own programs.Keyboard player---------------This>d} program allows you to play music live by using the keyboard. You have your 3 sounds in memory and can switch between them as>e} you play. However, you have to specify how long each note is to play for before starting, so you can't have mixed length not>f}es as you play. You can also load new samples in from the keyboard player.Drum player-----------Seven drum sounds are lo>g}aded into memory, and you use your keyboard to play them.What else is included?----------------------As well as the prog>h}rams mentioned, you also get a very detailed manual. This is ready for printing to an 80col. printer straight from DOS. You a>i}lso get a load of sound samples.Comments--------DMS is a very classy package, because it was intended for the commercial>j} market. The manual is more than adequate, and quite detailed in parts.Editing tunes is a pain, and the lack of real pitch >k}makes DMS unsuitable for more professional work.DMS is great for a bit of fun, or if you want to get into digitizing.

For the 4th time I will be F{}exhibiting at the All Micro Show, at Bingley Hall, Stafford. This year it's on 14th November.As you may know, AMS is THE AtF|}ari 8-bit show! Although it covers all machines, and electronics and radio as well, the Atari by far takes the most space at F}}the show.Over the years, AMS has attracted more and more Atari suppliers. Back in 1989 there were just a few of us, but lasF~}t year we were everywhere! People like Page 6, Micro Discount, Miles Better Software, and me (of course!) were there last yeaF}r.At this moment I don't have a list of exhibitors. The booking forms have only just become available. But, I've already boF}oked an 18ft stand for this year!At this year's show I will have the PD library, with disks duplicated on the day, Digi-StuF}dio demonstrations, used software, the News-Disk, and possibly some hardware. I will also be taking your used software in excF}hange for PD. Also, we'll be dishing out free help and advice on Atari related subjects. I hope to have the usual bunch of exF}perts helping on the day.If you are unsure whether to come or not, then read the review of last year's show which I did on F}a previous issue. If you don't come, you're missing out! Lots of bargains are to be had!We look forward to seeing you on NoF}vember 14th!sue. If you don't come, you're missing out!

Fuller XR_40 will read any ascii fileN} regardless of file size, line length, or end of line terminator ( Atari EOL or CR/LF). Actually there doesn't evenN} have to be an EOL. Loading: Atari Dos [2.0-2.5] Either rename AUTORUN.SYS or binary load from menN}u. SpartaDos: From command line: XR_40 [Dx:filename.ext][col1 col2] col1 is text N} col2 is background normal defaults are 202 148 The formula to figure color is Color=Hue*16 +LuminN}ance All arguments are optional but if you want to change the colors you must have the filename and both N}colors. If you are using Atari Dos or did not specify a file name when loading from SpartaDos you will be proN}mpted for a filename. Enter Dx:filename.ext. The D: is required. There is no default. If you wish to view a directoN}ry enter D2:*.* for all files on drive 2 D:*.TXT for all files with TXT extender on drive 1. After yN}our file loads you will see page one of this file. From here you can alter the colors with the arrow keys ( control key N}not needed). Press the spacebar to advance forward one page. If you wish to review the the last page reaN}d press the SELECT key. It will toggle between the present and last read. The ESCAPE key will terminate the rN}eading of this file and ask you if you wish to load another file. "N" will return you to DOS. The only limitaN}tion is there must be a space at least every 38 characters for it to read correctly.
