Salutations!
Like oh so many, I am also new to this forum and have recently cultivated an interest in DMG modding. Admittedly, I have little experience with electronics, circuitry, and the like, but I'm using my affinity for music (chip and otherwise) as a shoving off point as it were.
I know you've all probably heard that song before...
In the past, I have made what seems to be collectively referred to as "fake chip," but would love to experiment with and incorporate some real hardware into my setup so that I can get not only the knowledge, but the genuine sound as well. I'm most familiar with DAW software, so ideally, I would like to fashion a MIDI-based rig that uses a DMG as a synthesizer.
In any case, if there any who would be generous enough to indulge another novice, I have a question regarding the infamous pro-sound mod. All sites which sell the mod (i.e. ASM Retro, Nonfinite, Kitsch-Bent, etc.) present options of either an 1/8" jack or RCA. I ask because most audio hardware I use or have used in the past takes either 1/4" or XLR. Sure, I could buy an adapter, but it seems that for my particular applications, it would be loads more convenient to have a 1/4" jack at the ready.
If this is possible/practical? If so would anyone be willing to lecture this noob?
I am aware that the appropriate literature exists somewhere, but I find manuals and compendiums of information to be a little intimidating and have difficulty absorbing what is immediately applicable. For myself, personal tutelage has always been the most permanent and efficient method.
Thank you one and all!
