Amiga A500
Commodore International, ZDA
- Opis:
- Večji, umazano bel računalnik z vgrajeno tipkovnico, vtisnjenim napisom AMIGA in disketno enoto na desni strani. [SLO]: Amiga 500, ki ga je leta 1987 lansiralo podjetje Commodore, je bil revolucionarni računalnik, ki je ponujal napredne grafične in zvočne zmogljivosti, zaradi česar je postal priljubljen med igralci in ustvarjalci multimedije. Bil je prvi v liniji računalnikov Commodore Amiga in je postal najbolj priljubljen model zaradi svoje dostopnosti. A500 je imel procesor Motorola 68000, ki je deloval pri hitrosti 7,09 MHz, ter večopravilni operacijski sistem z barvnim, miško vodenim grafičnim vmesnikom. Ta zasnova je ponujala funkcije, ki so jih drugi proizvajalci uvedli šele leta kasneje. Amiga 500 je bil tudi ključno orodje v glasbeni industriji, še posebej v poznih osemdesetih in zgodnjih devetdesetih letih. Poimenovan kot 'cenovno dostopen studio' je postal bistvena platforma za ustvarjalce elektronske glasbe zaradi svojih zmogljivih štirikanalnih stereo zvokov in uporabe MOD datotek. Glasbeniki, kot je Calvin Harris, in zvrsti, kot je jungle, so izkoristili zmogljivosti Amige, saj jim je omogočala ustvarjanje kompleksnih zvokov brez drage opreme. Dostopnost Amige in podpora skupnosti sta omogočili, da je nova generacija umetnikov eksperimentirala z digitalno glasbeno produkcijo. Amiga 500 je tekmovala z Atari ST serijo, ki je bila prav tako priljubljena med glasbeniki zaradi svojih zmožnosti MIDI. Medtem ko je imel Atari ST svoje prednosti, so superiorni zvok in grafika Amige naredili le-to zaželeno izbiro za mnoge v kreativnih industrijah. Kljub konkurenci je Amiga 500 pustila trajno zapuščino, saj je vplivala tako na igričarsko kot glasbeno produkcijo. [ENG]: The Amiga 500, launched in 1987 by Commodore, was a groundbreaking computer that offered advanced graphics and sound capabilities, making it a favorite among gamers and multimedia creators. It was the first in the Commodore Amiga line and became the most popular model due to its affordability. The A500 housed a Motorola 68000 CPU running at 7.09 MHz and featured a multitasking operating system with a color, mouse-driven graphical interface. This setup provided features that other manufacturers would only introduce years later. The Amiga 500 was also a vital tool in the music industry, especially in the late 1980s and early 1990s. Dubbed "the budget-friendly studio", it became an essential platform for electronic music producers due to its powerful four-channel stereo sound and the use of MOD files. Musicians like Calvin Harris and genres such as jungle benefitted from the Amiga's capabilities, as it allowed them to create complex sounds without expensive equipment. The Amiga's affordability and community support made it accessible, enabling a new generation of artists to experiment with digital music production. The Amiga 500 competed with the Atari ST series, which was also popular among musicians for its MIDI capabilities. While the Atari ST had its strengths, the Amiga's superior sound and graphics made it the preferred choice for many in the creative industries. Despite its competition, the Amiga 500 left a lasting legacy, influencing both gaming and music production.
