Not sure I remember seeing anyone try it using only original hardware...
Interesting. I wonder if this would be possible with the dragonMMC.

Music software for the dragon?

Does any music software (sequencers etc) exist for the dragon? I know of one program called "music maker" but I can't figure out how it works - and documentation seems nonexistant. I also know synther7 which is a cool synth, but doesn't have any kind of sequencing.

Hi, I'm trying to load some cassette software to my dragon 32 but half way though loading (with any tape I try) I get an IO ERROR. I think this may be a problem with my cassette player (a cheap £10 thing I got from aldi) although up until about a minute in the tapes load file (with games like frogge...

Re: A C compiler that can compile for dragon 32?

So far I've managed to write the classic "Hello world" program using CMOC and run it on xroar and I'm quite impressed, but I don't know how to then convert that so I can run it on real hardware (to cas or WAV). any ideas?
