impulse tracker has sixty four channels. limitations suck
edit: what i mean to say is "i couldn't care less about limitations"... nor nostalgia for that matter. i just like the way it sounds and there is some good music. i am not a nerd who loves to deconstruct things to find the limitations easter egg of the lsdj or?? i just like chiptunes because they sound good. sorry
affection was implied, i agree though.

Re: Re: Limitation (189 replies, posted in General Discussion)
Beyond a shadow of doubt, I think we all love chipmusic because we're nerds that are fascinated with deconstructive listening. We all took things apart as kids, just to see what was inside. This music (when we have a basic knowledge of the software in question) is much the same, we listen firstly to the song for the overall mood, then re-listen to hear the hidden easter-eggs, such as a subtle waveform switch or a phasing harmony.
Other mediums, in my opinion, are harder to decipher. A guitarist could use any number of amps and effects, a dj could be using a trillion plugins to get that special reverb. I suppose the overall point i'm trying to make is that most fans of our music are chipmusicians themselves, with a basic to intimate knowledge of lsdj, nanoloop, fami, piggy etc, and these 'easter-eggs' are a wink to the listener as well as a musical device. The listener doesn't feel like an outsider or a fan, rather a colleague in a genre strewn with limitations.

Also, my family is surprisingly accepting of my chip music. One time when I was visiting home I showed them a little bit of it.
Dad: "That was really weird, yet really cool."
My dad text me to say he "found some 'media files' on the old home computer that he was 'unsure' about..."
(i scrolled down nervously)
"...but I can't delete these mp3s, this Oxygenfad chap is fantastic!"
