You can use the tables to try and emulate slower arps, which may sound closer to what you are looking for, but the rest has been said.

Re: CURRENT STATE OF THE USB CART INDUSTRY? (102 replies, posted in Nintendo Handhelds)
I use the EMS 64mb carts; I have about three and they all work fine (two for lsdj, one for gaming), plus it's not a slow process at all to read and write both ROM's and .sav's onto the carts. I've even switched .sav's in between songs during some live shows.
Only downside is the backup software doesn't run natively on a mac, so you have to use PC emulation (Crossover, Parallels or, which I personally find the best, VMWare).

The most important thing for most people when using 8bc is feedback. I've only been a dedicated follower and contributer to 8bc for a couple months now and the only reason I don't post songs here as much is I almost know I won't get any feedback. It's not about "likes" for me, but for others who may be a bit more into the little ego boost I can tell why'd they'd be annoyed at 8bc. If you're not already well known, you're not going to get the 350 "likes" that quite possibly a lesser song would get by someone everyone already knows. For someone that wants to learn and get better I think 8bc is a better community though. Ignoring mindless trolls and stupidity isn't difficult and If i happen upon a song that is pure crap it's easy to just click away or actually leave CONSTRUCTIVE feedback rather than flame someone's hard work. A lot of people forget that everyone starts somewhere and chipmusic.org really falls victim to that.
To the, possibly, inane dismay of the people who are 'into the little ego boost,'
I completely agree. It's too hard to 'start out' here.

Yes, I have done this myself on one song. Just make sure the one that is NOT underclocked is master. The underclocked DMG will play at the same BPM of the master, and will still play an octave lower.
You can use the underclocked boy as the master; just make sure to set the underclocked tempo to a high number that is divisible. Therefore, you set the non-modded boy to slave and divide the tempo of the underclocked boy by two (Ex: underclocked master @ 254 & un-modded slave @ 127). Easy enough, but sometimes constraining in tempo variation.

Thanks for the suggestions:) They will be added.
This is still far away, and some more feedback would be great. I'm still doing my research.

Re: 8Bit Symposium @ the University of Guelph (10 replies, posted in General Discussion)
Very interesting.
I'll add a little bit of the Amiga history onto it for a modern influence, but for time constraint purposes I decided from the outset to not go in-depth into the techniques of the preceding technologies. I'm focusing on the contemporary growth of the genre, with an emphasis on the Nintendo gameboy and famicom, and while early influence is important, it's not necessary to analyze offshoots of technologies (such as sampling).
I find 4mat's comment interesting, as it relates directly to the gameboy's triangle wave synthesis.
Good stuff, though!
