Bytebeat Experiment #1

By jiffypop23 on May 8, 2012 9:42 am

This was my first time experimenting with Bytebeat.
Output of C program piped to soundcard + post processing in FL Studio.

C source:

main(t){for(;;t++)putchar((t<<1)&(((t>>2)+(t<<1))-(t<<5)|(t>>10)-(((t>>41)*(t<<5))*(t>>12))));}

awesome man, I have heard some filthy drones/melodys made that way, makes me really wanna turn my hand to it soon.

Sexy

Interesting.

If you don't mind me asking, would you need to have an understanding of C programming to use Bytebeat?

Not really, but it does help.
It's more based on fucking around with an algorithm than actual "programming".
