theta_frost, you can get a windows 9598/me (fuck a me) machine with a compatible sound card and run adlibtracker via the ms-dos prompt if that's easier for ya

That might be feasible, I have used Adlib some in DOSBox.  Back on topic!  Buy this stuff!

Man, if DOS wasn't so whack to me.  Do you still want a STE btw?

Awesome!  I was holding out on getting 2.3 because I was afraid a new version would be released soon!  Good to know Kitsch will have them.

It's a little deceptive... so don't get too excited there.  It is not a programmable low pass filter you can do anything with.  It is turned on all the time and designed to take some of the high frequency aliasing artifacts off the sound.  I'd be tempted to add a bypass switch to be honest - a bit like the Amiga has - so you can get the extra frequency extension.

ps. We are going to have to figure out how to do a prosound on this unit!  Apparently you can drop ND filter (?) in front of the LCD to get a better image.

Aww, I was really hoping it was a controlled filter.  Alas.  Does anyone know of sources to buy Lynx's relatively cheap?  There is an ebay seller with many many Lynx II's for $15, but they all apparently have some minor issue wrong with them.  Nice tune!

I'll be sure to tune in, because I'm one of the fine ones who actually lives in the Milwaukee area.  big_smile

Cool!  I really did LSDJ inspiration.  What are the extra channels being used for?  A similar configuration as M4G?

I'm not saying that I don't respect the work that you put into it, but it IS a very difficult program to work with.

P.S.  It's cool to see you around the forums!  big_smile

If those protectors are ever sold individually I'd want a few.  AFAIK people have been wanting those produced for a while now.  wink

Awesome!  VRC6 is very exciting, it gives me hope for other expansions... wink  I've just ordered my USB-TTL cable so I'm excited to try this all out.

Wow, that looks really good!  I might have to get me some of these panels now...  Is that just blue?  It's looks like the perfect cyan that is always so illusive.  Now bivert it.  wink

I think for the benefit of willis316 the helpful information in this thread should be consolidated and the garbage taken out.  There really is some good advice here.

Awesome stuff.  I understand if you don't want to work on it, but I think there plenty of justification to a project this like this.  So much potential for upgrades!

I'd say George hit on one of the biggest points.  Listen to LOADS of chipmusic before you start writing any.  Once your digging that specific sound buy just one console/computer/machine and focus COMPLETELY on that one avenue.  I can't tell you how much crap I've spent because I've been indecisive and bought different things while not focusing enough on my music.  i.e. If you like STu, go find yourself an Atari ST and use it to its full potential before adding other things to your setup.  You'll spend money on the right gear that is directly applicable to how you're writing music, and how you WANT to be doing it.

P.S.  Having some knowledge in music theory will help tremendously.  I've been studying it for about a year and personally my music has come out much better and more to how I want it to sound.
