I have no Windows machine at hand today but i'll try to use my work pc tommorow to help you out with that.

Also, i thought it's a standard feature that LSDJ buffers your current song in SRAM as long as you work on it.

Hi there,

after 3 PMs, what's left?

It's not as simple as people like to state it.

To really explain it all would be a bit to much for a post in a forum thread so i'm going to keep it short.

The gameboy is able to put out frequencies up to 100kHz, yet it is not able to put out any frequency just so due to how the curcuitry is built. In the gameboy, the frequency is made up of a 11 bit value. That's 2048 different values for exactly the same amount of frequencies. The formula for that is: 131072/(2048-x). With the help of excel you could find out which freuencies are possible.
From the highest note you stated on it is not possible to find correctly tuned notes anymore, that's why they are not implemented. The pitchbend calculates it's bent note in real time so it can reach those higher notes.

As to mGB. mGB has a lookup table for the note values. Exceeding the boundaries of that lookup makes the program look for note values at places where there are no notes stored. So it just reads in 'random' note values. Random in quotes because it's consistent in one and the same rom.
So the mGB part is a bug in the implementation. It should just play no note above or below it's range.

I'm working on a mGB2 for quite some time now...

By the way. If you are transcribing gameboy music and run into note range problem feeding your data back to a gameboy it's probably something wrong with what you transcribed. Gameboy note range is from C3 to B8. One octave lower for the WAV channel.
mGB is able to playback any music ever written for the gameboy just looking at the notes of course.

Hope that helps a little in understanding the issue.

This sounds like one thing i also mentioned earlier: I couldn't see files created by BGB in the Wine file explorer, yet in the Mac Finder they where visible.

Glad it works!

Did you read this thread? I think it does not leave a lot of questions open...

As soon as you enable the "WAV file writer" in the options it starts outputting audio files. There is no message whatsoever telling you it started, it does just start right away.
Same goes for disabling it. It simply stops. If you reload a ROM it starts a new wav file.

For where the files are: Know where your Wine instance is stored. Under that open "drive_c > Program Files > bgb" or whereever you stored bgb in your Wine. The files should be right in the bgb program folder.

Yes, the BitBoy is just for GB Camera.

Using BennVenn's Joey Joebag you have a more versatile tool at your hand being able to get save files etc. And it's much cheaper. But you have to be aware of the fact, that it also means more work for you to get those pictures of the camera save file then. Sure, there are tools available, but it's an extra x steps to get the pictures.

With what i said: Keep the android version in mind. This is really an issue. I don't know if or when this will be solved or if it can be solved for the Joey Joebags. I don't know if it is a problem with the software on my smartphone or the Joey Joebags hardware (or its firmware respectively). For Android the problem is clearly its newly introduced Storage Access Framework. This is causing me trouble to read data from or write data to the Joey Joebags. Make sure, your Android version does not have SAF. (It came to my phone with Android 6.0.1)

I have a desire for that too. Simply because i don't like the "hello" scrolling down instead of the Nintendo logo... It gives me a weird feeling, like playing some of these illegal games like "Sachen" etc.
And it does not look that good in my opinion... If it would say "nanoloop", that'd be much better because it makes sense.

So, i'd just be more happy turning on my nanoloop cartridge greeting me with either "Nintendo" or "nanoloop".
