Thanks for listening everyone!  I'm glad people are enjoying it.

You should just charge straight out for this release (and include the .sav in the download)! wink

I thought about that, but I really just wanted as many people as possible to listen, so I figured pay-what-you-want no minimum was the way to go.   I might do a "deluxe edition" with .sav, lsdsng, the custom kits, and bonus songs if enough people are interested.  (If I do that, anyone who has paid will get the bonus content, of course.)

Another good reason to go to BRK?

Planning on having a sweet lunch at a local dive with the artists on Saturday. Everyone is invited. Come dine on awesome sammiches with the best!

*Pricks up ears* Awesome sammiches, you say?

I just throw enough effect commands/tables on it so so it makes me look like i actually know what i'm doing


On an aside, though: It's important to remember song writing. If someone writes a beautiful melody and chord structure with just a stagnant 50% pulse width I totally won't hold it against him (or her!). But at least throw some Vxx/4xx on that shit AMIRITE

express yoself!

Sometimes I *like* that 50% pulse d00d.  Don't hate on the 50%!

What's criteria? Stereo field?

I can usually tell immediately by general pulsewave sound design who knows their way around the block or not...

This right here.  I love me some clever sample usage, but good pulse channel sound design is essential.

This is an awesome release man!  There are a LOT of really nice subtle touches in there.

I think this should be posted in the Nintendo Handhelds section.

Also, have you seen this thread? http://chipmusic.org/forums/topic/6819/ … tch-books/

got my MA in PoliSci in december, its done all of shit for me.  so i'm either unemployed, or fully employed at kitsch-bent, depending on who you're asking...

I finished up an MSc in European Public Policy in October and it has got me nowhere either.

Good to see some other pretty useless degrees!  I have an MFA (Master of *Fine* Arts, haha) in Fiction Writing.  Taking classes on writing fiction kind of soured me on writing fiction, so I make music instead.  My degree did get me a job, though.  I'm a technical writer/editor.

I didn't see this posted here, so I'm taking it upon myself to do so.

"Emptiness Meets Happiness" is 5 tracks of LSDJ bliss.  Bubu is an excellent programmer who writes songs that ebb and flow and morph.  Check it out.

Sorry for the delay guys.  Noisechannel.org has been migrating server hosts (...or something like that?)  I wanted to wait for the site to stabilize before putting the next article up.

And now it's up: http://www.noisechannel.org/posts/5138

This one was written by special guest columnist Cheapshot.  Check it out!

Cheapshot has an iPhone patchbook app: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/lsdj-pat … 65867?mt=8

Here's a short one in Googe docs:  https://docs.google.com/file/d/14T69TMB … edit?pli=1

2xAA hosts one, which is currently being migrated to a new site.  Soon it should be here: http://ucollective.org/

And I have a regular LSDJ tip/technique column that usually has patches in it at noisechannel.org.  Here's are the available ones: http://www.noisechannel.org/posts/4409
