I have recently bought a Rasberry Pi, and was wondering whether it would be possible to run LSDJ through a emulator while using the DMG as a speaker to replicate the authentic sound?

It doesn't have the dmg sound chip in it so it wouldn't be exact but you'll probably get pretty close with an emulator in terms of sound.

What you're asking doesn't actually make any sense.

You could run a Linux GB emulator on a Pi and run LSDJ on that. But you can't use a real gameboy as "a speaker". The sound of a gameboy is produced in the hardware itself, not in some filtering the hardware provides. Even if you were to cut out the speaker from inside a gameboy and wire it up in such a way that the Pi's sound went through it, all you'd have is the sound of a Pi going through a shitty speaker. I've never known  a serious gameboy musician to use the inbuilt speaker anyway.

Either just get an EMS cart and run it on a gameboy or just run it on an emulator.

There's no reason why you can't experiment with different size piezos and speakers for tone, but authenticity shouldn't be the reason.

Speaker ≠ sound chip

@MegaZombieStomp Linux has been ported to the Raspberry Pi and you may be able to run Linux based emulator on it.

No idea if the Pi is quick enough or not, but you can try it.

Do you mean kind of like a gameboy version of a hardsid? Maybe arduinoboy?
