BGB yo! Even gives you separate channels out. VBA's sound is shit, just so you know.

This 1000 times over. VBA sounds terrible. BGB is actually pretty accurate sounding, imho.

I actually just record BGM for the audio examples I use on LSDJ and You columns (out of laziness not wanting to mess with a DMG for a 30 sec clip).

I write on BGB all the time and record from the DMG. BGB is pretty close. Usually just a little tweaking and you're there. BGB all the way.

If you have a WAV instrument set up to play pingpong, loop, etc., you can delete all instances of the instrument except the first one and as long as your repeat is set to F, the synth will keep cycling through the frames without resetting.
I had no idea you could do this, this has literally changed my whole life!

I think a lot of people don't, especially considering LSDJ add the instrument back in even if you just change the note.

It works for anything on the WAV, including hand-drawn PWMs, wubs, whatever.

It works on the pulse and noise channels too. Say you're running a table on the pulse and you want to change the note without retriggering the table, just delete the instrument. Note changes, table (or envelope) continues uninterrupted.

"chip hop" should be more of a thing than it is. dunno if anybody should ever call it that, though

The trouble with that subgenre is that if you put the words together (Chiphop) some people might pronounce if "chifop" by accident. Which is why, to this very day, it remains a little-explored region of the ocean.

Great initiative, but how about a unified post and just updating the topic title? You have made four of these posts in a couple of weeks. You could keep the op updated with links to new articles and have a single post for people to find everything.

Oh! I actually didn't even know I could modify the topic title. >_<

I'll just do that in the future. Thanks for the heads-up.
