These programs require PBASIC V# 2.1


Syntax PBASIC BACH2.BAS    (Minuet:From Movie COMPUTER DREAMS)
       PBASIC PETER1.BAS   (Peter and the Wolf)
       PBASIC KRIEGER.BAS  (Johann Krieger) 

*   This will be my second set of songs for the port. The third set
* will probally be Beattles or something more modern.I'd also like to
* set up a "Juke Box" with a menu and you can choose which song in the
* future and enclude all of these.
*   Please keep in mind that music on the port uses alot of battery
* power to push that little speaker.Even so, I haven't noticed alot
* of battery drain but,...
*   I've changed the code so they songs run faster and less "computer
* like".You can also add a more human feel to these by altering the
* 25,50,75,100,150, numbers in the data statements.Also Note line 13,
* as you can change the song tempo to your liking.

   If you have a song you'd like to see, send me a note.(Please remember
the number of notes * time to input it= my frustration level.)

   After the latest release of PBASIC by BJ Gleason, I noticed that
it supported DATA statements and that led me right back to my old
Commador 64 days and trying to write music on it using POKE statements.
   Nowadays I have a full MIDI setup but can't take it with me,..until
the Portfolio came out ! My basic is still very rusty (you'll notice
that if you peek at the code) and I'd love some help in defining
variables so my data statements looked like this:

  1000DATA C#6,Q,D5,F,E7,H (with Q=quarter note F=Full,H=Half,etc )

    Instead of:

  1000DATA 54,25,41,50,61,25,

   Let me know about related Music/Graphics for the port. Enjoy.
