Has anyone had experience with a gba that's got a lot of hiss and the led won't stop flickering between red and green?

I haven't used it in years and now it's started doing this. Could it be a dirty battery connector or something?

Ahhh I think my hang up was from not turning off the gate bit. This is super helpful!

I'll be making defmon acid in no time!

I'm having the most difficulty with the adsr registers. Can't seem to get anything but a full sustain envelope going.

Any good resources on programming the sid registers? I understand some of how it works, but I really want a better understanding on creating sounds with the sid chip.

So far defmon is pretty fun and easy to use!

For quite a while I've been thinking about making a series of instruction videos on youtube or something, possibly even two: One about how the SID works in general, and one about how to use defMON. Main obstacle is actually that I don't have a video camera.

I definitely support this idea. You could always screencap VICE and explain through captions for a video guide.

Woah. That's a lot more intricate than I expected. Would I need to edit the slide frequency tables as well?

I'll have to dig into this a bit more. It was really easy to tune to NTSC with GT lol.

It hasn't been tested on NTSC during development, so it may not work, but on the other hand there are no obvious reasons for why it couldn't work or so. Also, setting VICE to NTSC mode and starting defMON didn't produce any obvious errors when I tried it a minute ago, but I didn't test much.

The frequency table used for notes is for PAL though, and not NTSC, so note frequencies will be a little off if played together with some other instrument that has standard tuning (where A = 440hz).

Did you run into some particular problem or what is the reason for your post?

No real particular reason. Interested in trying it out on my c64. Could I edit the frequency tables of defmon to be correct? I did that on GoatTracker a few years ago and it worked out fine.

Very interested in pairing c64 with my x0xb0x. I know defmon can sync well with other hardware

I dont know if this was asked before but, there is any tutorial or book about LSDJ with instrument setting presets to make for example flute sounds and things like that ? I love touch all options, but dont like spend 3 hours for "find" horse diying instruments.

This might help you out a bit.

4mat is the 4mat of chipmusic.

I think some of the punk ethos extends into chipmusic. Especially with live events. It's very DIY-centric like punk has always been. Maybe it's not so DIY on the hardware end these days, but it's not like the punks are out there building their own amps and guitars.

Worlds collide though. The last couple punk bands I've seen/played with had chip dudes. Didn't get to meet the chip guy playing sax for a punk band unfortunately. I was really really bummed to not hear punk sax solo sad

+1 for little-scale. Dynasty is another good one.

I think I heard an Anamanaguchi song on someone's myspace profile around 2006-2007ish. I'd always loved game music so I thought it was cool and looked up more stuff. I found Disasterpeace's myspace not long after that which lead me to Pause and eventually other netlabels like 8bitpeoples. Somewhere in there I found 8bc and started getting involved and wanted to learn tracker music (and music in general really).
