Arrangement view in Live can be used for some pretty extensive wave editing, but it depends on the knowledge of the user how well it can and will be utilized.

Bout time you got on this thread cTrix. 

Live isn't really much of a wave editor (as far as I'm aware) but more of a composition / performance tool.

The program I'm using is called Cool Edit Pro.  It's been around for 15 odd years and nothing tops it IMO :-)  Adobe Audition 1.5 is probably the last super stable build of the same program (as Cool Edit was bought out by Adobe).  Reaper also has quite a good set of analysers which plot on the fly for checking signals during multitracking.

Wow kudos that is very cool! Pretty considerable audible difference as well. Curious what program you were using for all that? Ableton Live's spectrum analyzer isn't that cool

Purely on the front of "filtering high pitched frequencies", aka the bus noise - here is a little break down of what it sounds like and what happens when you remove each layer with notch filters. I know it's not completely relevant to this discussion; but it is relevant to the search term!! m00dawg: Will also show ya how much a prosound does for your noise floor!

This recording matches the visual reference.

ps. The values are scaled and so it's not the best depiction - but great for showing those rings.  I've also double notched one of the high freq's by
accident.

It's more pronounced on the WAVE channel but I hear it on the squares too. Hopefully am going to have a Pro-Modded DMG-001 here in a few weeks so I'll try to remember to report back my findings on how that sounds.

Yeah the square waves are closer to analogue oscillators so there shouldn't be any noise related to aliasing there, on closer reading I noticed m00dawg was discussing that, I was talking about the wave (psg wavetable) channel. Sorry to anyone if I was a bit misleading. I am to a certain degree making assumptions, I can hear aliasing or something similar to it on the wave channel on certain settings, I don't notice the same effect on the other channels.

Neither of these two quotes have anything to do with what I've stated, this thread is turning into nonsense now.

Have you tried using other gameboys?  I have two.  One sounds pretty terrible--the wave channel sounds awful, samples are unrecognizable, and there's a lot of noise overall.  The other sounds pretty nice to me, not too much noise, wave and samples sound pretty good.  Neither is pro-sounded.  It could be an extra noisy DMG.

That's kind of how I feel about it.  Sure, "it's a gameboy" but we are re-appropriating it for another purpose.  Trying to make it be the best for that purpose, I think is part of our spirit.  Regardless, if its unnecessary or not.

I think you might be missing the whole idea if you think that there's a single "whole idea of using the game boy;" a portable game console that you are now using to create music.

so you are making music with gameboys because you like the sound of gameboys but changing the sound of them so they don't sound like gameboys because you don't like the sound of gameboys

on a more constructive note a lowpass might probably take out a lot of stuff you do want as well as stuff you don't want unless it is like 10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 dB/octave slope.

i would keep doing it in logic unless you are going to PLAY LIVE (probably to audiences who like chip music and are therefore pretty used to the sound of a game boy)

no bad feelings taken man, I just think you might be missing the whole idea of using the game boy. no worries.

You must have very sensitive ears if you can hear that with normal listening. Are you actively listening for those sounds or can you seriously hear it when you listen to the music itself? I think you're being a little obsessive about it and maybe it's just you, but I don't even mind the aliasing.

I'd say just try the prosound with an extra jack so that way if it's not what you wanted you still have the normal output

i mean people have said what the prosound mod does, but until you actually hear it on your own device you're not gonna really know if that's what you're looking for, it's not complicated, if you have a soldering iron you can do it yourself pretty easily.
