I rigged my set up to use Ableton on my PC as the master tempo and send MIDI out thru my audio interface to my arduinoboy to make my gameboys play in sync. is this what you are trying to accomplish?

It lives!!!!

Ableton (master for tempo speed, stop, start) > Focusrite Scarlett 2i4 USB 2.0 Audio Interface (Midi Out) > ArduinoBoy > Nanoloop

Compute Her?! I barely know her!

this is very good. i agree live shows would be very fun to watch with your piano talent

cool i got an arduino coming from amazon and will play around with this stuff soon. will keep you guys posted

I've been thinking about a potential daw setup, I'm just conflicted a bit. Is there any way to have a Daw send a midi clock and then press start on lsdj and have it wait for the next bar to start up? Or would I still have to rely on beat matching for this?

Yes?  I think that's what the syncmap mode is for, but I might be crazy.

No. Sadly, Ableton doesn't send straight up gameboy serial information, so you need an intermediary (an arduinoboy) to "translate" between the two.

Ah I think I gotcha now. So I need an Arduinoboy to convert MIDI data to gameboy serial data instead of wire splicing. Has a version of this build ever been done for multiple gameboys/devices? I am thinking I could use one MIDI in on the Arduinoboy for the Ableton Clock and maybe 4 MIDI outs on the Arduinoboy to sync a bunch of devices to it. Basically I just want an easy expandable design to be able to sync up more than just two gameboys/beatmachines/whatever.

It's a little bit more complicated than "wire splicing"  You'll need an arduinoboy to send midi clock to a gameboy. Good news though!  You can just plug a midi cable into anything else that accepts clock sync..

Can't I just use the DAW clock to send to the gameboy?

Here is my idea to use MIDI clock from Ableton to sync multiple devices: GB, GBA, Beatmachine, etc...Just want to make sure, will this work or am I missing something?

if you dont mind, that would be cool. maybe zerey has some insider info on those back light models

I would definitely try adding a resistor. It will reduce the current going thru the pot which will make it less hot

Dang... sad

Have all the GBA back/front light models been discontinued? Cant find em anywhere...

do you have another GB game to test on your DMG? i experienced game crashes/glitches on my DMG but it was only after i installed a backlight (and forgot to install the resistor). After installed the resistor, games worked fine.
