[ Overview ]

"Blue Saxophone" is a musicdisc demo especially designed for the Commodore Amiga CDTV
and as such its most distinctive feature is the use of Compact Disc music.

[ System requirements ]

A minimum of a PAL Commodore Amiga CDTV or A570 with:
- Motorola 68000 cpu
- OCS chipset
- 512 KB of chip memory

In theory the demo should also run on CD32 and on any CD-ROM based Amiga
given that the CD file system supports emulation of CDTV / CD32.

Best experienced with the CDTV connected to a Hi-Fi / audio speakers.

[ How to run ]

- Unpack the archive
- Software emulator (eg WinUAE): mount the .cue file as a CD image
- Real hardware: burn the .cue file to a physical CD-R disc, boot your system from that CD

[ Mouse controls ]

The demo runs in autoplay mode and can be operated via the remote controller or a mouse:
- click the right mouse button to play the next track
- click the left mouse button to exit

[ Background information ]

The demo is a tribute to the Compact Disc technology and its integration into the Amiga line of computers.
The authors intended to revive the vibes of the late 80s / early 90s.
Last but not least, many thanks to C= director Gail Wellington, mother of CDTV.

[ Tech notes ]

Because of the latency and the indeterminacy of the CD subsystem of the CDTV,
updating the screen at a decent framerate is a challenge.
Anyway, we might be able to improve the framerate in the future and then release
an enhanced version or sequel, so stay tuned.
