Nah I knew it was light hearted. Just wanted to make sure I wasn't coming off as a prick lol.
Also...fucking 3 math tests Wed, Thur, Fri...but Friday will be an LSDJ cram session to get my kickin' rad tune up there.

Haha...was all in good humor. I don't actually care in the least. And I brought Picard along because in the first compo I made a comment when I uploaded it which appeared when the song was being played. So yeah...I wasn't anonymous anymore so no worries.
When I first started using LSDJ, having no experience whatsoever with trackers or any software based music for that matter, I was confused as all hell. Just interested to hear how others conquered the initial WTF phase. Unless I was the only one who experienced this?
Oh don't you worry. You're definitely not.
I first started this past September with Famitracker. I had no experience with trackers other than some random custom guitar hero song software. I did Famitracker for about a day until a friend told me about LSDJ. I was like "Fuck it...I'll just invest completely in LSDJ since I think its super rad." So I donated some cash to get LSDJ and spent a day making a shitty cover of the Transylvania level music from Duck Tales. Every note in the melody/bass was stopped with a "k" and the thing as a whole basically had no dynamics to speak of. After that I started writing my own stuff. Since I have a long history with my guitar and writing music the only problem was figuring out commands and getting certain sounds. I basically used a new command heavily in each song I made to get strong grip on each one. I then bought a DMG off of ebay, made it look pretty (I know it has nothing to do with learning LSDJ, but it was a fun project and got me more pumped), realized it was tough to do some things I wanted to do since it has a tough time going above 160bpm and all that, so I grabbed my girlfriends gameboy color (cant find my old one D:) and that works swimmingly. I now have most of the program down really well with the exception of grooves.
I also agree completely with DaPantz (and I'm sure I'm not nearly the only one). Many times I'll make a wicked combination of sounds almost completely by accident...and because of the way probability/luck works in general, there's no way one would run out of these wonderful "accidents".
My next step is getting my hands on another cart and GBC to sync it with my current setup. I really enjoy mixing channels together to get crazy unique sounds that surprise me sometimes when they sound like something the gameboy couldn't even do.
Plus having access to two WAV channels would be godly.
oops.... ummm....*runs away*
The reason my avatar looks so furious is because he saw a certain individual's username referencing his species on solidcomposer.
He wants to rule the world one day and believes all other T-Rex stand in his way.
I would sleep with one eye open...
...he's coming
If you ever want try out LSDJ (program for gameboy or emulator)...GIT AT ME...I'd be happy to help.

There were some links, but youtube is a pain.
I lol'd at this.
IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO TRADE YOU CAN EITHER PAY MY RIDICULOUS PRICE OR NOT GET THE GB
That right there just erased any chance you had of getting a buyer around here.
In the future you'd be better off not patronizing your (only) marketing demographic...
I Love it. Holy shit.
Haha I know. Just being cheeky.
goddamn this is good
I'll be playing Z-Bombs on a loop for the rest of my life.
EDIT: And also I really think this is my favorite release within the past couple months. Those long pauses in the melody at the end of Point are so...so...SO good. Fuck.
Why'd you make 3 threads?
Wow that really looks like a blast. Love the drove of ghost-yous running along with you.

Wuuuut? I'm not trying to flame or anything...but really...all your threads up here are asking for a ridiculously high price. I know you're also looking to trade, but seriously...i'm pretty sure most who visit will think you want to trade for a Batmobile or something of equal value after reading your high asking price.
Also...posting videos of them half finished is not the best of ideas.
I would definitely consider lowering the price as well as tolerating/ignoring/taking a hint from possible flames from people well known around here.
So...earthquake relief compilation? I know it probably wouldn't raise a huge amount, but every little bit helps, and seeing as there are so many chip musicians in Japan I think it might be nice and appropriate.
That's a pretty rad idea. +1
