Woz Voice

Some people just need that extra dose. Dealing with an Apple //e alone is not enough. No, they also need to be able to listen to stories from the good-old-days™ on exactly the good old device. Retro squared, so to speak. 🤩 (I officially love it.)

At least that's how the current story by Oliver Schmidt reads, or something along those lines at least.

His project is about making .a2stream files available with a simple HTTP server, and playing them back in realtime on just mentioned hardware with the help of his software A2Stream. The highs suffer a bit, as the sample rate is capped at 22kHz, but the whole thing is absolutely worth listening to.

If you combine this with the Open Apple Podcasts, which Oliver also provides on his site, you can listen to Woz himself on one of his very own creations.

Great weekend project for anyone with the right hardware. And real weekend. 😫
