Sounds like a layered NES triangle kick with a midines drum sample.. since you cant do that in lsdj Id try layering a triangle wav kick and a noise channel click, but I think triangle kicks sound way smoother and punchier on a NES then they do in lsdj's wav synth.

No major problems with mine so far, the coolest thing is I have a one touch backup button for flash drives on my NAS, so its mega easy to backup the sucker up.

Also, I've switched lately from Raspbian to archlinux. No major differences except it boots to shell in about 10 seconds with is rather good.

Oh nice! Ill move over there asap just to stay close to the pig father.

Well the price of a little netbook and a pi are probably comparable once you add in psu. sdcard, screen, joypadkeyboard, screen, audio interface..

Of course the pi can look pretty cool in context :

Btw I would totally pay for any other updates to your NESuite. Maybe a master bundle?

With the above, adding a class compliant audio interface and midi device should be plug and play. The Pi os automatically mounts a usb audio interface as primary if its detected, and then you can select the midi in piggy settings as normal. On my setup I added a usb midi keyboard and have the pig autoboot script do a acconnect so the pigs and keyboard midi output are merged on the output. You dont need to do this.

re: windows did you play with the mididelay settings on Windows that lets you delay the midi so its in sync?

Its this:
2. Set to 44100 Project Rate (Hz)

Set the project rate to the gameboys sample rate (8192Hz), after doing an eq of all frequencies about this point and it maximize the volume as much as possible. triming the silent parts should help make any noise elftover as much as possible.

6. Game musicians require mods to make the act of recording and performing music created using them easier. Because of this they have driven years of research and development, so its a bit oft putting to have people come to a forum design to discuss the creation and enjoyment of music and hear that a big group of people who post there are ambivalent towards it.

Personally I have yet to see one console paintjob or purely aesthetic mod that adds anything to the original designs. Most are terrifically ugly.

That last sentence is how musicians likely view the comments above.

Its fine to hang out wherever people share your interests, but its a little naive to want to hang out at a forum with the word MUSIC in it's title and not expect a little blowback when you tell its members that you aren't really interested in the thing they are most interested or invested in.

Its mostly up to your sound design skills, so whatever you feel more comfortable with.

So why not hang out somewhere else like the ben heck forums? Because the mod designers hang out here? Maybe kitsch needs a forum for all the people that hate chiptune big_smile

Here is a strange question, what should people who listen to chiptunes/8bit music wear?

Airtight plastic bags over their heads.
