Just signed up to this forum in my new found quest to replace plugins with hardware. I've been researching and reading for a bit while waiting for parts for a midibox FM and messing around with LSDJ. But I'm still not sure what setup to go for.
Ideally I would like to control the gameboy (and other units) externally, treating them like rack synths. That would mean not just sequencing via midi but also tweaking filters, oscillators and other parameters via midi. Is this possible, and what sort of hardware setup would I need? USB-Boy / Arduinoboy / other?
I assume mGB would be an option, but it seems sort of rudimentary. Does it allow saving of the settings or could this somehow be done externally? Also, would it allow external control of parameters or just sequencing? Could LSDJ or other software be used in the way described?
Thanks for any input
