I call bullshit.
A DMG plugged into the Line In port on your laptop is all you need

What? I didn't say you couldn't make chipmusic with just a Gameboy, I was saying that there are other options.

Well if we're talking music in general that's pretty obvious. tongue

A Mac port would be great. I really like the PCM support too, thanks for making this!

Reminds me of Little-Scales Gameboy stuff, probably the fast vibrato on the pulses. You have some good sounds, but I think the melodies could have been a little stronger. Over all though it's fairly solid.

Just not the high pitched stuff that makes me ears bleed.

You must have very sensitive ears if you can hear that with normal listening. Are you actively listening for those sounds or can you seriously hear it when you listen to the music itself? I think you're being a little obsessive about it and maybe it's just you, but I don't even mind the aliasing.

Actually I've run into differences with FamiTracker.

Sorry, I could barely tell the difference. Of course it's fine if you use hardware, I do for most of my chip stuff, I'm just tired of people flaunting "REAL HARDWARE!" and sticking (LSDJ) in their song titles. Anyway no harm done, good luck with the album.

There is a noticeable difference in those sounds guys haha. I have some emulator recordings on my laptop of some of my Gameboy tracks and they sound mad different on the real Gameboy.

Yeah i have to admit Gameboy sound emulation isn't very good, at least last time I checked, but m00dawg mixes it with tons of other stuff. Like I said you probably wouldn't be able to tell the  difference with all the other stuff playing. Also that's just the Gameboy, all the other emulators for various systems sound dead on. Unless you're listening to a single system and you're not trying to pinpoint the noise the emulators don't emulate (which most people don't seem to want, what with all the pro sound mods) it doesn't matter.

its hard for people who are doing it for no other reason then to be all k00lguy 'yeah real hardware!' i guess.

its part of making other people feel like they're so unique because they thought they were the first person ever to fart on a circuit bent speak and spell. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Lol

M00dawg, maybe you should give some thought into wether you need real hardware. You made another thread about filtering the noise from a Gameboy's output, while if you used emulation there wouldn't be any noise.

John Chowning's stuff is pretty old, as far back as 1966, although not much of it is very listenable since it's mostly inharmonic FM synthesis.

Why do you care if it's recorded from hardware when you're mixing it with other instruments? At that point being able to tell if hardware is playing is near impossible. I'd even say that just putting an eq on something makes it fakebit, not that I care.

As for the song it's decent, not my cup of tea, but it's of quality. smile
