personally i'm waiting for DEADBEEF on windows

might already build on mac actually, dunno

neato... i use xmplay on my laptop for mp3 and flac + modules

i think a gameboy is 6 bits

you can make 16 volume levels on each channel for a total of 64 volume levels

or is it seven bits because you can get an extra level by turning on your prosound?

or is it eight bits because a channel panned only to one side is half as loud as a channel panned to both?

on the 8th day of christmas my true love gave to me
8 bits of gameboy
7 bits of gameboy
6 bits of gameboy
5 GOLDEN RINGS
4 bits of gameboy
3 french hens
2 turtle doves and a
1 bit gameboy

part 1:

no, there's no difference in sound between RCA and 1/8" *

1/8" is usually stereo... RCA is usually (always?) mono

so if you wanna process each side of your gameboy tracks individually, RCA is cool because you have a separate output for each side built into your gameboy.

most mixers and stuff use some combination of 1/4", XLR and RCA... hard to find gear that will have 1/4" inputs... but you will probably be buying adapters whatever. 1/4" and XLR are both usually/always mono so RCA might better from that point of view... direct 1->1->1 relationship from gameboy->adapter->input

i would go with RCA but if you have stuff with 1/8" input (pc motherboards and laptops usually do, can't think of much else) and you aren't planning to get more gear then i guess go for that

one advantage of 1/8" is that you can plug headphones in but if you leave the original jack intact when you prosound you can do that anyway

part 2:

i'm not sure it's possible to switch the CPU in a gameboy very easily at all... it would be easier to just buy a different gameboy. but i think all the DMGs are the same speed really. if you want it faster you should get a GBC or one of the advance models (not the micro!).

i don't really recommend male to male adapters, better to get a male to female and a cable imho... like so:

lazerbeat is absolutely right though, don't substantially restrict your choice of mixers and/or pay extra for one just to save using two < $5 adapters

irrlichtproject, YES

now i sound just like joey, the robot from Beneath A Steel Sky!

i think the idea is not to glue a rod onto the screw, but to set the superglue into a screw shape - so it can be screwed out with a flathead screwdriver etc. that way there are turning forces pressing against flat set glue, rather than relying purely on how well the glue has stuck to the screwdriver.

so you don't want a rod that fits the shape of the stripped hole, but a normal shaped screwdriver (flathead or philips or whatever, probably don't waste a triwing on this). that's what i think anyway
