hi guys,
thanks so much for all feedback and advices, really appreciate it!
may I overuse your kindness by asking one or two set up examples (or links) I could take as a base to dig into wav bassing ?

Two years ago I wrote a series of articles on LSDJ sound design that you might find useful. A lot of them talk about wav channel basses, kicks, etc.

hi, I got them all printed in my case since a few weeks now!!
thanks for that by the way \o/
as a total beginner I waited to kind of get use to the main features of the soft before following your path!
in the meantime the .sav collection collected earlier will be very very useful to start understanding how to organise things in the sequenceur with some sounds / wave constructions examples

I use rechargeable batteries. DMGs are battery hogs.

Your tuts are prolly the most useful out there, I'd give you moneys if you updated them a little and released them in paper form, and im pretty sure others might as well.

Pulse snares? Share your witchcraft
just use fast vibratos and experiment from there.
there are probably some examples in here:

Yes, definitely get Eneloop rechargeable batteries, & a good smart charger to charge them up. Using the Gameboy without them really doesn't make any sense at all. This is a good charger that I use:
La Crosse BC-700 Battery Charger
As for bass kicks, as everyone says, the WAV channel will definitely give you the strongest kicks when you use the triangle waveform & a loud volume. However, the pulse channels can give some pretty decent kicks too. I use them all the time. Just keep the volumes on the other instruments low, & turn the volume on your bass hits up to max. You can check out how I use them (as well as some insane fast programming) in my Scrap Brain Zone cover. I give out all my lsdsng files on my Soundcloud page to help others learn. I guess I should post them on the lsdsng site too...
