I updated one of my NL 2.7.5 carts to the latest versions and my songs completely changed so I downgraded back to 2.7.5

It's a pity because I really wished I had that 'note view'.

yeah I liked the old noise channel's functionality more than the gb/metallic noise (old version is better for EBM/industrial snares) so I've kept 2.7.2 on one cart and have upgraded my other cart to 2.7.9.2. Tbh though, the note view is a little confusing when switching between the oneshot/repeating arp on the L/R channels, or switching between unison and chord mode on S.. it doesn't seem to have any visual feedback? Granted, it's probably pretty difficult to show any extra information when four notes are in each tiny box.

ok so the adapter (I got from you) works because its connecting via the web browser but when I hit start/select it doesnt go back to Nintendo logo like it says. Could this be a cable error or not because of it being able to link or am I doing something wrong? If anyone has any demo video//anything along those lines please link me or fill me in

what kind of cable are you using? how far along into the process are you getting? I think you need to start the process at the web browser end before holding start/select when turning the GBA on.. I think the GBA gives some kind of feedback to initiate the transfer, and that's when the logo should appear again and pulsate.

thanks big_smile I really appreciate your dedication to nanoloop, I use it more than my "real" synth gear

The latest version of nanoloop 2 (2.7.9.2) reduces the hum when synced via USB.

hooray it also fixes mute!

Do you think there's scope to fix the "jump to 250bpm if you accidentally use B+LEFT/RIGHT to change to empty pattern" bug? I do realise it's a rite of passage for all nanoloopers big_smile

tony banks is my hero, he's got such a good sense of writing weird chord progressions that are somehow still really catchy.

Great! Now show us how to eliminate the whine on the micro tongue big_smile

I really wish they'd built link cable support into the power connector. There's certainly enough space for extra pins.

I'm wondering, is there *any* chance that the processor is capable of outputting/receiving link port data and just isn't connected to anything? Like, a hack that can be done somehow? I don't know enough about processors and electronics (yet) to go poking around..

Otherwise maybe a future nanoloop2 cart could have an analog sync port on the cart itself? oliver pls big_smile

Sounds like you're in experimental territory here. Since the backing is just a thin sheet of reflective material glued to the screen, what about a thin piece of glass mirror in place of the backlight? Maybe u could find a reflective plastic membrane and glue it on like tinting a car window. They have it all over the walls in these colorado flower stores for growing flowers.

This is an interesting idea.. if you use something super reflective (ie. moreso than the film from a stock gameboy) would it mean you could see your reflection in it?!

You will also want to keep an eye on BennVenn's store page/Facebook page - he's got a ton of stuff being produced at the moment and being released as and when it's ready - including his new SD flash carts. Basically, these are cheaper than Everdrive, better than Everdrive and can run multiple LSDJ instances in them with 128K (Everdrive can only manage one song in a 32K RAM).

Seconded. Plus the guy is an absolute champion; he's gone out of his way to help me on a couple of occasions, even for products that he had nothing to do with.

Let Andre be a cautionary lesson for everyone and really try to look after your ears. I would urge anyone going to concerts or shows etc to wear earplugs and to listen to music at a comfortable level when at home or making music. While you might not be that bothered now, over time you can do significant and serious damage to your hearing and I wouldn't want anyone to suffer like Andre has/is.

yeah I scared myself at a Sunn O))) gig around 10 years ago, my ears were ringing for a couple of days afterwards. From then on I decided to wear earplugs at pretty much every show. I have friends who never wear them, one friend in particular who is almost proud of not wearing earplugs, like it's some feat of endurance or something.. I just can't afford to lose any more hearing than what I probably already have.
