Yeah, the fault in this case was myself LOL.
Thank you all who helped with suggestions. I am so happy I finally got this machine running with 128k. Now I just need the AY sound inside this rubber speccy, which will be another challenge :) -

Pretty sure that's not normal. There was a design flaw with early +3 models which caused the AY sound to be distorted, but you still always heard the beeper. -

Hmm, ok. Very strange. Beeper works in 48k games. -

Thanks!
Adding AY sound should be easy, but I didn't want to make any of the demos too complex... -
Turrican 2 - Mock up of a Mock upOne of the games that I was most looking forward to in the latter years of the Speccy's commercial life was Turrican 2. The previews made the game l…
I dunno. I think that Turrican 1 on the Speccy works very well, it's a shame that there isn't a 128k version with some in game music or AY sound effects as the sound effects are the weakest thing about it. -

I'm not a fancy programmer by any means, but IIRC it still allows access to some of the 128s abilities while being in 48k mode (the AY sound chip, RAM banks etc...).
I could of course be totally wrong though! -

I second that, the jack must be plugged into the MIC socket.
The 128 and +2 however do often have a problem of AY sound being quieter than the beeper. -
