To my understanding, there are chiptune artists that record and perform through the regular headphone jack and no prosound. It's personal preference really. Some people like Prosound, others say fuck it and play!

there are quite a few no-prosound 'purists' actually. some of them are very well known and their albums don't reflect the lack of prosound one bit! you'd never know, in fact...

i still only have one prosound. not a huge issue, i kill the hum with noise reduction in post production

I dunno what "can I still my good tunes. " means, but prosound doesn't effect anything as far as composition goes.
This page is always useful when trying to figure out what kind of gameboy you want to buy, it's a sound comparison

But basically, prosound mods cut down on line level noise, they aren't really necessary, different GB models have different sound characteristics, and you should see which is right for the sound you want.

Honestly if you have a DMG already I'd get the color for a faster CPU, if the style you do/like needs it. Unless you just really like how the Pocket sounds based off that link above.
I have a Color and a DMG, enjoying their differences actually (neither is Pro Sounded).

Thanks to all of you, all very good advice! I actually bought a black gb pocket with bluish purple button. The sound on it is amazing for what I am composing. Its processor is fast. The only con about it for me is the start up when I turn it on, well you know it takes like 5 seconds to go thru the powerup screen. Kind of a bitch on stage if Im trying to make a quick transition. but fuck it, Its beautiful and sound rich to me
