Enjoying mine, especialy the led interface is a minimalist art piece. But i keep thinking that it is in desperate need of an OS update to get up to the functionality of nl 2.x

How is everyone going with their Nanoloop handheld? Has anyone updated the firmware? Is there even a new firmware available yet?

have been looking for a nanoloop 0.8 for quite a while. anyone having one please contact me.
the classic 1.0 is a source of brilliant chaos due to a bug with saving.

I would like to have all important soundchips on one board, along with robust sequencer, something like 2x SID, YM2612, Nintendo S-SMP from SNES, Gameboy, that is enough. AY-3-8912 is probably not necessary because SID can do all that, so i can cover anything i want, this is future for me. And one big controller with a lot of knobs like have look mom no computer to modify all parameters in realtime. Dream off smile

not one board, but are you aware of twisted electrons? therapsid, MEGAfm, AY, etc...quite some is covered already in a useful way

Amazing work on this one. And that bonus track is an album in itself.

This release is a great example of what music tools based on lofi chips are capable of. Quality is often away from obvious 'chipmusic' clichés. This release, but also "Berlin sea", Gala's previous release, show obvious influences from the berlin sound, but updating it by being refreshing, "intricate and quirky", as irrlichtproject said.
merci Gala.

Yeah this is really doing it for me, probably the closest anyone in chip has come to Ryoji Ikeda style. Would be great with visuals!

thanks.
nanovoice very quickly leads to that Ikeda sound.
all you need is EQ...


...and visuals

The sounds are awesome. It's a little too experimental for my taste, but then again, I make Techno Chiptune and that is far from melodic either big_smile. Jokes aside, Real good work on that sound design. I'm still amazrd at how awesome those old school sounds can sound. From absolute haunting to the happiest melodies you ever heard.

thanks

just realised that i forgot to comment here about this.
this is one of the best chip-related releases i have heard so far.
solid work as always.
very good taste in the sound design department.
