Re: A Moment of introspection for the chip bros who have left us (112 replies, posted in General Discussion)
One artist I don't think is very well known here is Kjell Nordbo, who sadly passed away in 2005. He was (imo) one of the most inventive c64 musicians there has ever been. He's also one of the most prolific yet maintained an incredible quality level throughout.
His work can be found in the High Voltage sids archive, but if you can run an emulator or hardware I suggest getting the original files. His music collections were as much about the visuals as the audio, really closely tied together in his productions.
Couple of my favourites:
Is there anywhere to hear any hardware recordings? Googled. No success.

Re: A Moment of introspection for the chip bros who have left us (112 replies, posted in General Discussion)
I think for a lot of the older users they are still around but the forums just don't stimulate them like they used to. For me I reached a point that I was rarely learning anything new because I had accumulated so much knowledge over the years about everything I had wanted to know. It also became easier to socially communicate with my chipbuddies about life and stuff with social media networks instead of the forums and seeking stimulation/inspiration for my music/life started to come from else where. Things change and stuff *shrugs*
I ended up changing my name and doing less fully chip centered stuff from my wedanced/wduwsts days.
I don't think I am alone in this evolution but maybe it just took people to different places.
I obviously check in once in a while tho

Re: Post your gig/home setup! (1,620 replies, posted in General Discussion)
All my chip stuff is elsewhere but I have been slowly building up my collection of "legit" stuff so I thought I would share what the "studio" looks like.
I mostly work with samples from my chip hardware rather then the real deal (except for LGPT) so most of the time I can just stick with this basic setup.

I am assuming this thing is outputting the japanese ntsc video standard. that would be my guess. it probably isnt outputting the right frequency for US tvs.

Re: How to get that classic N64-ish sound (19 replies, posted in General Discussion)
...... the N64 basically used general midi and or samples if i recall... It didn't even have a devoted soundchip that synthesized sounds or playback.... the CPU did it.
What he did in this video is replicate synthesis techniques for 8bit machines like the NES and GB.
