If you mean you want to use MIDI to actually record the note data into a phrase in LSDJ, that isn't possible. If you want to use MIDI to play each channel like you would a normal VSTi, that is possible using the Keyboard mode but as far as I know you can only play 1 channel at a time and there are other restrictions (you can only play at the current groove in the currently playing phrase). So to answer your question, it's mostly the latter, to play back what you've programmed in LSDJ. Otherwise what you probably want instead is mGB, which treats the Gameboy more like a typical VSTi synth. It only takes MIDI input and there is no real sequencing possible in the rom, you do all the sequencing via MIDI in the DAW. https://github.com/trash80/mGB

This (RetroPlug + mGB) is exactly what I've been searching for for years. Thank you so much!

I'm new to LSDJ in general, but I've been a music producer for a long time. I've been fiddling with this and going through the LSDJ documentation as well but I still haven't figured out if I'm able to send midi notes from FL Studio to the VSTi, instead of just control the functions with MIDI commands. Is it possible to use this to send actual notes for playback in the DAW or is it to play back what's already been programmed in LSDJ itself?

nope only if you want to build it from source!

fyi there was an issue about sameboy not playing samples correctly, it's fixed in retroplug v0.4

I'm finding that changing my audio buffer size changes the RetroPlug play speed in a way unrelated to Live's bpm... does that make sense at all?

I'm running this successfully in Live but have a few issues. I just loaded the vst from the download. The section about "SameBoy has to be built using msys2 (mingw) on Windows" is confusing me, is that something I should be doing?

I don't have to bring a DMG to gigs, I run my whole set in the box as it is so I don't have to use another mixer channel, I don't have to try to buy my Arduinoboy back from nullmang...

it should be noted, sameboy has issues with LSDJ sample playback, but that being said, if you're in a daw it probably doesn't matter that much
