Want suggestions for starting to make my own chipmusic (Page 3 of 5)

No, I don't believe I'm the guru of all things chip, I'm just trying to provide a more accurate depiction of another medium in which this kind of music is created. If someone asked you what a Gibson guitar is and you were a fan of Fender, and you replied by saying "Gibson guitars are basically crappy pieces of poop that are made by pretentious jerks", that's not really a very good definition for a beginner. By offering an objective description, you'd be helping the asker out much more.

Let's not get upset about this and instead continue helping the OP get a start with chipmusic.

Steps to becoming a chip musician.

1. Learn some theory. You're not going to get very far if you know nothing about writing music. Also, it'll probably help if you learn how to use a tracker because there are tons of trackers for all sorts of systems out there.

2. Check all your options. Don't just focus on Gameboys. There's shit tons of ways to make chip music. There are also plenty of free ways to start writing. I'd suggest looking into free software first, that way you don't end up buying a gameboy and decide you don't like writing chip music. Stuff like MilkyTracker and FamiTracker are great for beginners and they're completely free.

3. Start writing and experiment. Try new styles, genres, tricks, etc. Also, try and get your hands on some files you can load up in your tracker/program of choice and take a look. I've learned a TON of stuff from studying various modules.

I never said anything was better than the other, quite the contrary.
I just said that fakebit was a BS term, and implied you didn't know much - besides gameboys and NESes - for someone who spoke as having the One And Only Truth, Frostbyte, and that you should do your homeworks before spreading falseness, especially to the ones looking to learn.

I'd rather have you stop spreading false information in a n00b thread.

You haven't falsified it but fakebit isn't used just to describe a technical process in the scene.  In chipmusic it's often seen as 'lesser' music than the "greyboy" camp.  Not by everyone in that group obviously (infact some of my best chip scene friends use those materials) but just pop over to 8bc.org or read some other threads here and it's quite obvious.  I think a lot of that just stems from ignorance and the average age of chiptuners, but still.  It's a dismissive term and there's no need for it on a 'mature' board like this one.

"Nigger is a noun in the English language, most notable for its usage in a pejorative context to refer to black people (generally people of Sub-Saharan African descent), and also as an informal slang term, among other contexts. It is a common ethnic slur. The word originated as a term used in a neutral context to refer to black people, as a variation of the Spanish/Portuguese noun negro, a descendant of the Latin adjective niger, meaning the color 'black'."

See, "nigger" used to be neutral, but is now widely considered pejorative.
Most people who are considered "fakebit" see it as pejorative and have voiced that opinion, among them respected members of this community like minusbaby and 4mat. I believe we should respect that and discard the use of the term "fakebit". Besides, for all I know, you might be the one who wrote that wikipedia article. I doubt it's a wildly popular wikipedia article and that it gets corrected much.

But more importantly, you are way besides the point, darling.
