i would do this on the iOS app for sure, been using it way too long and have some kind of flowing mixes that would work well.

I ran into the guy who made some pretty cool software which runs natively on the Acorn 3000 and some WonderMedia netbooks [WM8650, WM8850] which is called AMCS "Advanced Music Construction System" http://amcs.3rdevent.net/download.htm

Here are some from the event I went to at the Cambridge Centre for Computing History [ http://imgur.com/a/kZJaq ]




Here is a demo video tutorial on youtube.

I'm always amazed when meeting people who spend their time making such amazing software for music making and I thought people might like to know about it here.

Here is another site that overcomes the PPU problems somewhat
https://nobitleftbehind.wordpress.com/2 … k-the-nes/
It uses a fixed freq osc but the basic principal  (run the PPU on the stock clock and run the CPU on the alt freq) could be applied to the LTC1799 for on the fly freq shift.
  For the most part, people overclocking want to overcome slowdown in games due to CPU load.

The biggest 'downside' is pitch shifts to the audio, so could consider that a 'feature' for chiptune use. Maybe add an LFO or pedal controlling the LTC for live effects?

I have been interested in trying out overclocking and/or underclocking my NES but I can't seem to find much in the forums so I thought I would start a thread for people who are interested or have additional information.

I have been thinking and would like to know the following:

  1. What are the benefits or pitfalls for overclocking or underclocking a NES?

  2. Where are some good places to view tutorials and experiments?

What I am hoping for is a mega-thread with links to good videos or websites with details on overclocking and underclocking a NES, as well as anyone's personal experience and opinions.

I am looking forward to seeing and reading everyone's experiences.

Not really "chippy" but If you like synthesizers, check out FiveG, it is amazing.

someone in the chipscene after a pre-party in Tokyo told me about it. I went there with a friend, It is really great.

I will definately go back there if I get back to Tokyo. Its in Harajuku.

Of course Akihabara is the go to place for technology stuff. You can find places selling new and old stuff 'Junku' laptops, saw an abandoned Commodore 64 in an electronics shop, but it might have not been for sale, you can always try?

i use my MBSID almost everyday, it is a great device. making patches is a pain but it's nice to integrate it with other devices (MIDINES, mGB)

i've always wanted to try it with goattracker, so let us know how it goes!
