yes. this. make sure both the connector inside the gameboy, and the fingers on the cartridge itself, are clean

debris here causes a lot of hiccups

It usually messes up the song I'm working on but, I can just load a different song then load it again and it will be there. The first time, however, it corrupted all of my stuff. No matter what it always messes with Delay/Repeat.

This sometimes occurs when I mess with my pitch mod. That's just the switch's fault but just be weary. Maybe use an adapter.

Hey,

so i'm just writing on this Killertrack and want to look into another tune . While loading the "Don't Panic" message appeared and i had to restart the cart like 3x.
Now it showed the Cartridge Test Screen, which i didn''t let finished cause i panic'd :I

Anyway is there still a chance of recovery? My last backup was a couple days ago so i would lost like 2 h of work.
