I've been wishing for a more fully featured thing like mGB for ages - something where you can add and modify scales, make tonal changes, use the WAV channel, or make tones that use multiple channels? And save presets.

Not an insignificant project, I realize, but a guy can dream, right?

i think you mean muddygb, not mgb, right?

with china undercutting labor costs, people assume that labor is free, they calculate the cost of parts it takes to make something and disregard the R and D costs, and assembly costs, and the intellectual value of the original idea.

"R and D"

"intellectual value of the original idea"

isn't this just an arduinoboy though? what costs are there when the code and schematics are online for free?

i don't ask this confrontationally. i'm genuinely curious and i don't mean any disrespect by that. i'm actually a big admirer of yours and think all your mods are pretty incredible.

with a little more info, i'd definitely consider this. it looks like it would match my arduinoboy.

Nope, can't explain.
Although I've heard several people labeling us like that. + I've heard several people labeling just the punk chip thing you mentioned like that.

But it seems like Wikipedia has an explanation for you:

hella is considered nintendocore?

so they're going with the more labor intensive process rather than SMT? 

so they're 100$ more expensive on purpose.

ok...  more expensive is good

Yeah, because none of us would have wanted to save at least $100 on a $280 unit. hmm

i can get my gameboys modded overseas???

basically a sleek arduinoboy, which is kind of cool, even if it's too expensive for me. i was curious about the knobs though.

kickstarter wrote:

The knobs do different things depending on what you are doing.  If you are playing the Gameboy as a traditional instrument, the top three knobs allow you to quickly change parameters that will immediately effect the sound.  If you are using the tracker style program the bottom two knobs will allow you to manipulate the flow and style of your song in real time.

okay, "manipulate the flow and style"? what does that mean?

Nex’s GBLFO is an awesome feature for LSDJ artists. By sensing the sync messages sent from LSDJ, the GBLFO is able to administer precisely timed breaks in the audio giving it an oscillator feel. Several modes of severity controlled by one knob and the fine tune knob to administer the amount give this feature a very unique ability to change a rather ordinary average track into something interesting and worth listening to, in real time.

synced breaks in the audio? seems kind of neat even if i don't understand it. i watched the video and you can hear a stuttery choppy effect, which is kind of cool. what do you guys think?

this is such a weird question. some bands are successful and can make a lot of money, most bands aren't and make no money at all. there is no "average monthly income".

are you asking because you want to tell your parents so you can justify your choice to make chip music?

You can also try to buy a new car while you are on your vacation. There are also a lot of stores out there that sells cars for tourists. Maybe you should try looking also for websites who are selling cars and who knows maybe you canget a good deal.
