Colecovision Drum Machine Cart Created

Thanks to AtariAge for discussing their first title to be published for the classic ColecoVision console, called CVDRUM. According to their site, "CVDRUM is a new ColecoVision cartridge by E-Mancanics, based on popular software and hardware drum machines, that enables the user to create up to 9 different one measure musical rhythm patterns.. which can then be arranged.. [and] looped for musical performance. The tempos are also close enough that it can be used in concert with Paul Slocum's Atari 2600 SynthCart." The cart will be unveiled at the Austin Gaming Expo on July 26th.

Commodore 64 Cynthcart has been done. Here's the author's summary:

"I've got a working cartridge image that plays filtered bass notes from keyboard keys (keys match up with the C64 piano keyboard overlay: Q,2,W,3,E,R..etc) Currently it's monophonic and only plays one bass sound, but it does sound pretty nice. It runs on the CCS64 emulator. In the emulator press ALT-C to select a cartridge image.

I've also got it working as a cartridge on a real C64. I removed the chips from a Magic Desk I cartridge (thanks to Nicholas Coplin's hardware projects page) and installed a socket for an EPROM. See pictures below."
