Re: What was your first chip gig like? (100 replies, posted in General Discussion)
Cool thread.
This is actually the first official 8GB gig:
August 28, 2004
It was a party we organized ourselves in a super club club in Buenos Aires called Cocoliche (the meanest sound system in town. No compressor/limiter to protect the system, so you gotta be careful).
There was one before that, when I first played the Game Boy, it was a birthday of a friend of a friend, and as such, does not count. It wasn't even 8GB then 
The gig went extremely well considering that:
- It was the first time we organized an event. Club was packed for a different type of night. Awesome
- It was the first time we did an audiovisual set. I would be using Reason and play everything in live mode, linked to shitty Arkaos by MIDI, a nightmare (and Arkaos had too much latency). Nothing like that was tried before in the country so we were learning as we went, stepping on new grounds.
- The MIDI chain got broken as I got to start, which meant the "intro" lasted many more minutes than the seconds it had to while I fixed that shit! Maybe it wasn't minutes but it felt ETERNAL to me.
I don't think I would change a thing about it! It was the first time my parents saw me perform ever, and this remains as a very emotional gig in my memory. Have you ever performed in front of your parents? that shit is stressful
Here's a video of that very first moment, the beginning, with the lockup, the nerves, and all emotions within:
***********
You can quite see the tight AV integration anyway and that is cool
Haha, cover of Commando we played a bunch of times then, so far the only videogame track I ever covered/remixed
Somewhere I have an excerpt of the whole performance, with 4 or 5 tracks. I gotta look it up.

Copying a thread from ChipCo:
I couldn't even READ that shit.
So, what you say, is that I can get that 9 buck cart, then flash it from within the NDS? That would be awesome because I Would still use it in my GBA if I wished so. and 9 bucks is a steal

mmh.. you could buy for cheap a supercard miniSD (a chinese clone) from dealextreme.com..
No, you can't.
They, for some reason, have removed all but one backup solutions for GBA. The remaining one, despite saying USB, needs a parallel port to transfer *eugh*

@Akira: Plus they play LOUD!
I have a pair when tracking drums. Drummers tends to like them.
True, I have seen DJs put the monitor level on MAX with these on and I was wondering how fucking deaf they were, because I never been able to put them past the medium level on a decent DJ mixer's monitor level.

I think its true of any scene really.
I sadly think so too, it's a generation thing.
"Kids" nowadays want the formula to success, and that's all. There's no other pursuit.
This was pretty obvious in my experience teaching. They just wanted you to give them the formula to apply to the problem and that would result in success. There's this idea that "having the same gear/software as succesful guy means I can be as succesful", the widespread of technology has probably generated this. It's quite sad

The HD25-1 IIs are very cool, unlike other "dj favoured" headphones, they don't exaggerate stuff and they bring a lot of detail to your attention. I remember putting them on and going through my old stuff and finding sounds I never heard before. Suffice to say, I did a lot of track fixing since then 
If I make good mixes, it's for someone else to judge. Feel free to check out my releases
That plugin sounds interesting!! Thanks for the link.

Re: Mobile version? (11 replies, posted in Bugs and Requests)
I tried Links2 on the PSP as suggested... The site becomes more readable, but it just doesn't acknowledge any CSS at all and is fugly.
The biggest problem is trying to click the forms and actually type with that retarded method most homebrew apps have (I love the SMS-style in built text input, why do the homebrews use that shit with the square?)
Anyway, in a distant future, a small version for mobiles would be swell

While it's true that this sentiment results in a lot of low-level work, that's just what everyone starts out with.
That's not particularly my problem, I think that is brilliant.
But there's no chase for self improvement because any crap gets "hyped" by "peers".
I only released any music made with a game boy in 2006, that was 4 years after i started using it.
