My biggest issue was the mixer question, and it's clear that I need to bring my own! I was thinking of getting a dj mixer and have all the songs on 2 carts/dmgs (duplicates), running those like turntables if you will, and then a third gameboy+cart running extras (older songs/versions of lsdj, one shots, fx and so on...). I think the 4th channel is going to be used running a raspberry with some sort of tracker, like milky tracker. If I somehow can get those to sync it would be amazing! But that's a headache for the future!
Thanks for all the answers! Time to go hunting for a mixer! Yeey, more gear! ;D
Thank you, that clear it up a lot better
Well then there's no point doing it at all for me, seems pointless!
Hi! I've been writing chiptunes on Game Boy using LSDJ for a while now, and I was thinking about starting to try to get some kind of live gig next year. But how does it work? I have a basic knowledge about dj:ing, I know how LSDJ work in live-mode, I have experience of a live performance in other genres of music. But looking at shows on youtube I have a few questions for you who actually have played a show:
1a. What do you bring, except consoles? For example, do you bring your own mixer?
1b. If there is in-house-equipment, do you still bring your own and patch it into theirs? For example, your mixer main out to a stereo/2 mono channels on their mixer?
2. Do you play everything live (on the fly), or do you have some parts of the music sampled like external drum loops (if you use that sort of thing)?
3a. The visuals often in the background, do you do them yourself or is that a separate part of the show?
3b. If you are in charge of that as well, how does it work?
I hope someone can answer this for me!
Hello fellow chiptuners! Release time! 'Some Tunes' is aiming to be more of a "pure" chiptune EP than my last release, made using only 1xLSDJ cartridge and a DMG.
I hope you enjoy it!

Hey guys! I released my first EP under project BITVORTEX last weekend, RIOT.EXE! It's a mix of chiptune and modern EDM, so I would categorize it as "bitpop" for those of you who think that is important!
The whole thing was first created entirely with a DMG running LSDJ, to be buffed up afterwards with the help of other digital and analog synthesizers. It’s a mix of classic chiptuning and hard electronic music. Together they form a raw and aggressive sound with focus on the retro style sound heard in the old video games we all love dearly!
Made using LSDJ, Moog Minitaur, Eurorack Modular, NI Massive (mainly for pads) and some digital and analog sampled drums!

Check it out if you want! Would love to hear what you think!
I've sent you a PM, Dark_Bit_!
Well.. I have always liked the music but never understood how it was made. I used to listen to chiptunes on youtube and one day I saw this screenrecording of a square that played notes (LSDJ emulator). I started researching and found out about LSDJ. Downloaded it and tried it out. Awesome! Bought my copy of the site and ordererd a cart from kitch, and bought a DMG from a friend since I only had a gameboy pocket (I had read that DMG had better sound -true). This was somewhere about 09-10-ish..
After searching for like-minded on the net I found 8bc, which became my new home on the internet. When it closed down I tried to find another place, but didn't like what I found. I stopped making chiptunes and started producing electronic music. In recent years I have started to build my never ending modular synth, that keeps eating my salary, and mixing that with my chipping.
This summer I started playing around with Linux. I wanted a DAW on this computer too, so I found MilkyTracker. Hooked again. And yesterday I found this site and here I am!
