Re: Trying to nail the wave channel sound for Metroid 2 Surface Song (7 replies, posted in Constructive Criticism)
you can literally rip it out of the game - i have done this before with a different game - hopefully someone will chime in and let u know how to do it... because its been 4 years since the last time i did it - i just remember it required using a debugger in an emulator

Re: 1 bit on dmg-01 (38 replies, posted in Nintendo Consoles)
i think that none of you are realizing what defines "x-bit"... if so called "8-bit" music is generated on a device w/ an 8-bit processor... then 1-bit music would require a device with a 1-bit processor - and the gameboy doesnt have one

I can honestly say that I now know the troof. Money well spent.
I dunno if the ending I got was good or bad
good ending requires no continues

did anyone check out potatoman yet?
i have been playing it a LOT - i beat it 3 times... got the good ending twice
the soundtrack is by Miles Tilmann & Mark DeNardo... and the trailer video was scored by Alex Mauer (me).
definitely worth checking out! all bias aside... the game is awesome regardless of my involvement

Topic: need to borrow an nes power pak (6 replies, posted in Nintendo Consoles)
hey... looking to borrow a power pak.. preferrably from someone local (philly) but anywhere will do - eirik (phlogiston) and i are working on a new project... a re-release of vegavox and color caves for people who do not own the carts (these were never available as sound files) with 6 bonus songs (this is actually the reason i need the power pak) - it will be a pay-download album... whoever lends me their power pak will definitely get a free copy... and i will pay for shipping it back and forth (if not local)

Re: hello and roland mt-32 (5 replies, posted in General Discussion)
i consider it a VGM related instrument - absolutely - i used to have one... they're awesome - in the same league as the Yamaha FB01 unit - you could technically modify your MT32 to have a non-volatile RAM chip so that turning it off would not erase your patches - altho i have never attempted this trick
so... is it chiptune? not really... but that doesnt mean you wont get street cred for using real VGM hardware

Topic: NO MAUER @ 8STATIC - NOV 12 2011 (7 replies, posted in General Discussion)
Contrary to what it says on 8static.com... I will NOT be appearing on Nov 12th 2011.
I will be playing in the future... but right now I am pre-occupied by my 40hr a week day job, and my side-work (soundtracks). I don't have enough time to practice my live stuff. I refuse to put on a sub-par performance... so I will be delaying my appearance until my work load lightens up. Sorry to all who were looking forward to this.
