Here is a different "instrument" with 14 x 5.25" FDDs + 1 HDD. The two scanners in the Floppotron make a big difference to the sound quality.

I wrote it mostly on some boring lectures when I was still studying at the university, so it’s a one big mess, but… at least it does the job. It parses the simple language used for writing note sequences arranged in tracks tied to a specific controller / channel and merges those parallel tracks into one command list which is transferred over COM port. It can also partially generate „song script” from MIDI file which speeds up the „song porting” process.
