That first one makes me want to make a song (I hadn't been able to make any music while the school semester was going on and lately nothing decent yet. Alright I'll stop sidetracking the topic).]]>The only thing I can't get working from that tutorial site is the vocal synthesis, no sound comes out following that...
Really? That's odd, because I basically reverse engineered the vocal patch used in the "disco" demo and I had no problem hearing it. Can you send screenshots, I'd really like to look at it.

- first experiment, mainly to see how much sound i could "pack in there". features sound layering, chords, bass sound modulation, 64-step patterns, and generally writing without having to worry about song length limitations and being liberal about copypasting + creating variations of existing patterns. these features were all more-or-less of the question back in the DS-10 days.

- tried to come up with a convincing acoustic guitar sound here. in order to do this, i had to use at least 5 separate channels for the overlapping plucking patterns, plus a combination of custom internal effects (chorus + super-short metallic delay + reverb). admittedly though, the guitar sounds a little more like a hammered dulcimer. the quick strum at the very end had its own custom pattern length and tempo.
anyway yeah, the DSN-12 does open a few new possibilities, but that's mainly coming from the much-expanded number of channels and creative use of FX. i guess the main upshot is that you have much more room for songwriting maneuverability, so you can in fact write full complex song arrangements, unlike most DS-10 tunes which sounded more like strings of repetitive 303/808 patterns.
it's a double-edged sword though -- because you have that many more channels at your disposal, songs tend to be less manageable to write as they get more complex. that's why the above songs tended to be short, i spent that much more time with the first couple of patterns before i was satisifed enough with how they sounded to start making copies of those patterns.

]]>Hi, I'm new to this forum, but I've messed about with DS-10, LSDJ, and nanoloop for years. I am writing a tutorial series for DSN-12 with a few chapters focusing on replicating some of the things we can do in LSDJ (vocals, drum sounds, NES arpeggios). Let me know what you think, it is written with a beginner audience in mind, and I would like some feedback on things I should be corrected on. It is http://DSN12tutorial.blogspot.com
Yeah, I have been using your tutorial! So far it has been great. I am really enjoying the program so far, it helps knowing what I am doing 
It's on sale until tomorrow, 10$ off!
damn! should've wait a bit more.
