Re: First digidrummusic game ?

If we talk about non game music, I would wager that TEX's cracktro for Arkanoid is the first ever tune to use digi drums (1987).

http://sndh.atari.org/sndh/sndh_lf/Mad_Max/Demos/C64-Conversions/Arkanoid_Digidrum.sndh

My conclusion is based on the fact that the drums are not played using an MFP timer but a very basic use of manual NOP's. After this all digi-drums are played using Timers A-D.

Paul Summer's Predator was very advanced for its time using 3 timers but Mad Max's tune came before this.
