• Thanks for the comments!
  
  It all started with my curiosity about the intro screens for Onescreen Colonies 1 and Scroll Factory. I wondered why those screens were static and why the mode change, made possible after generating an horizontal blanking, happened at a specific point.
  
  So I analyzed the code for Scroll Factory and then had some fun moving the position of the blanking zone. I saw that there was a wide range of possibilities, and the idea of making it move with an effect came to me.
  
  The prototype for the scrolls in Make It Easy (spot the reference!) was ready for the Benediction Coding Party #4. Then I suggested to Krusty that we incorporate mode changes into his Polar Dots part as a decorative element. The idea for the intro came later, on paper, and then I found the courage to code it. A multitude of tests, often empirical, on the real machines were necessary for the CRTC adaptations to hide various artifacts caused by the technique. It’s probably not perfect, the pros will do better!
  
  The intro grew thanks to the graphic and technical contributions of RetroVynz, who is participating in a demo for the first time. Well done and welcome!
  
  The rest is the result of the daily, relentless work of Krusty, Voxfreax, and Warlord to achieve the best possible synchronization and a demo that loops seamlessly.
  
  I admit that this technique might not be very interesting to those unfamiliar with the CPC, but I’m sure that seeing multiple modes on the same line always makes an impression on CPC enthusiasts!
  
  Watch it on a real CTM!
  
  @BSC: sorry, but we managed to avoid some even worse puns involving H, B, and L! ;)

• diskmag Amstrad CPC AFC Bulletin 6 (English Version) by benediction [web]
• A minor prod, with one of my first Z80 opcodes, but the logo painted by Rainbird was very nice imho.
  
  AFC was a french CPC fanzines organisation which published regular newsletters. This prod is an English disc version of the 6th newsletter.

• demotool Amstrad CPC Digitracker v1.4 by Symbiosis
• Amazing work by Prodatron, releasing a master-piece for the musical creation on CPC, in 1993!
  
  The Digitracker is a complete software suite with its .MOD converter, tracker and player routine.
  
  Bonus for the Digiblaster/Soundplayer card's owners who can get a better sound quality.
  
  It's a shame it isn't used more often but the Digitracker is still relevant today imho.

• A memorable meeting and a very nice demopack released fastly after the party! Yeaahhh, it was possible! ;)
  
  The intro with the digitracker music (with a Digiblaster if possible!!!) by Targhan and the Noice part worth the visit.

• demotool Amstrad CPC Amstrad Plus Type-In Master [ TIM ] by Tristar & Red Sector Inc. [web]
• Nice effort to improve the original Basic Editor.
  
  Fn Shortcuts are a bit frustrating! I'd prefer to let the Fn keys writing digits and activate each shortcut with SHIFT+Fx for example.
  
  Waiting for the next version! ;)
