Thank you to everyone who attended, played and organized. This was an awesome send-off, though I truly believe it won't be too long before I'm back and we're all hanging out again. See you all soon, I promise.

Tonight. Got some fun stuff planned!

I have been using mine a little bit synched with Game Boys. I set the Game Boy playing the song as the tempo Master, synched via link port with a 2nd Slave Game Boy that is just sending the CV "sound" to the Monotribe  -- that Game Boy is not sending anything to the PA, but the monotribe is.

Here's an example. Most of the intro to this track (except the noise channel highhat sounds and the little BEEP every 16 beats -- i did that so I could keep track of the downbeat in case anything goes wrong and i lose my place) is monotribe improv, while those Game Boy chains loop. When I'm ready to jump into the rest of the song, I trigger the next chains on the "song" Game Boy in Live mode around 1:45 and then cut out the monotribe when the real song begins:

"Sound capabilities" might be more descriptive than "sound chip."

Sadly, I won't be able to attend sad Everyone involved, please suck so I don't miss anything great. Thanks.

Hey what are you guys doing a week from tonight? No reason.

Probably shaking uncontrollably and panicking when all my cart batteries decide to fail minutes before I go onstage. Vomiting also perhaps.

I don't have an empty with a K 00.. if I need something to that effect i usually just do a K06 at the end of the phrase that needs to stop.

and clearly i don't read things.

00 for life

No excitement over the schedule?? Come on! Look at that Sunday night nonstop powerpunch! Look at those closers each night!!

(Friday night is decent also I guess)

I have a koozie also but I am disappointed by the skateboard imagery. It's too NYC.

Yo an0va i heard you liked posting things in threads.

no but seriously this was an awesome good time.

I used to have this same problem before I pretty much figured this all out. The online documentation is good but it doesn't really answer every question. First, the keyboard has to be on channel 16, I believe, so make sure that's happening. Next, I think you're probably using the wrong mode on your arduino boy, so cycle through all of them until you get the right one. A good idea is to make sure your first instrument (and maybe a few of the other lower numbered instruments, in case you're accidentally cycling through them) have really short volume envelopes. Finally, the big problem I was having was I was using a MicroKORG, which only offers like 2.5 octaves at a time and sometimes defaults to lower octaves than what LSDJ can handle.. So I was hitting notes and getting no response, OR LSDJ was inadvertently cycling through instruments/tables because hitting lower notes controls that. So try messing with some octave settings on your keyboard or playing middle/higher notes if it's a big keyboard.
