MG'S CORNER: ISSUE #1
------------- --------
hi pals around the globe! this is mg of
trance with a special service for you
that you never saw in any diskmag before
maybe many mags will copy our idea but
be sure that we are the first diskmag
ever who got the idea!
no longer be bored by the usual charts,
news and roumors that every mag uses
to feed you up - this is YOUR corner!
---
if you have questions, problems,
difficulties or anything, then write to
me, mg, and we'll try to find an answer
to your problems, or, if we can't, we
will PUBLISH ANYTHING so that the whole
scene can help to find a solution!
your drive is broken? your keyboard
plays mad? your soundchip seems to be
dead? DON'T HESISTATE! tell us your
problems and we'll publish them here
and try to find an answer!
---
are you looking for a certain game or
tool? did your monitor explode? did
your girlfriend leave you? don't
fool around with your problems! write
to mg of trance:
"SYSTEM ERROR"
xxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxx
GERMANY

this is my new(!) address! postcard or
paper-note is enough! we believe you! -
----------------------------------------
as there are actually no questions, i'll
ask one myself:
"i have a c64-2 in the white ergonomic
casing, but what i miss are the digi-
sounds. i just think of games like
to be on top, turbo-outrun etc. and all
the dudes who have the old, brown 64'er
can hear the digisounds, but mine are
fucking faint, i always have to turn
up the volume. what's up?"
---
well, the problem is that commodore
installed a new soundchip into the
newer modells of the c64. you can't
refer to the COLOUR, even some brown
c64 have the new, BAD soundchip (and
some new 64'er have the old, good one)
if you can't hear the digisounds on
normal loudness, you have to open your
c64 and find the soundchip which has
the number "8580". (or maybe 8580 r5 or
similar). buy a piece of wire and an
1-mega-ohm-potentiometer which you can
get from your local electronic shop.
you must connect pin 14 (GND) and pin
26 (EXT IN) to the potentiometer.
:
**:*********** here you see which
* * pins i mean!
* 8580 * the pins of an ic
* * are always counted
*************: anti-clockwise!
1 5 1 :
0 14

make sure not to over-heat the sid with
your soldering-iron. a potentiometer has
three pins. you can cut away the left
or the right pin, coz you won't need it.
you only need the middle-pin and the
left or right one.
probably your soundchip is into a socket
but you needn't pull it out there. just
solder at the visible pins, but beware
of shorting the ic! if you are afraid
of doing the job yourself, refer to
authorized personnell.
if you did everything ok, then you are
now able to tune the volume of the
digisounds. if you turn them 100% on,
the "normal" music will be unhearable
and you can only listen to the digis.
you must tune the digi-volume for each
game individually, so better drill a
hole into your computer and build the
potentiometer into the computer.
GOOD LUCK!

i hope that i will get some of YOUR
questions for the next issue(s), so

problems (postcard is enough):
