As the enhanced V4 firmware's structural differences causes problems with some CPC software directly calling firmware functions by their memory addresses, Amstrad separately sold a cartridge containing the original CPC6128's V3 firmware.
When a reliable third-party support had been established, Amsoft gradually faded out the publishing of software and sold the Amstrad User Club as well as the user magazine.
This involved more CPU usage than chips designed for this purpose (such as the MOS Technology 8364 "Paula" as used in the Amiga), but it was nevertheless a technique widely used on platforms such as the Atari ST and less frequently the Amstrad CPC to play sampled music, and on the ZX Spectrum 128 and MSX to play short audio samples, in some games.
In an attempt to give the CPC a recognisable mascot, a number of games by Amstrad's in-house software publisher Amsoft have been tagged with the Roland name.

In 1984 they published their first national hit, a flight simulator created by Marc André Rampon: Intercepteur Cobalt for Sinclair ZX81 and Spectrum, also known under the name of Mission Delta for Oric, Amstrad and Thomson MO5.
The Shugart-standard interface means that Amstrad CPC machines are able to use standard 3", 31⁄2" or 51⁄4" drives as their second drive.
