Would a PowerPak suffice? o.o

The timing in a few of the tracks seem waaay out. Dexter Theme, though I'm unfamiliar with it, is good. The Flight of the Conchords is good, but it's difficult to recognise, if not for the drums.

You insane, boy!

Oh no, it's quite correct, I believe. As in, if I place a C whilst at a transposition of 40, it will play a C when placing it, but if I transpose the pattern to 41 and place a C, it will still play a C but when it plays back it is C#.

By entire track I meant song, mhm!  It's working a treat now. Strange getting used to the note placement audio not being the note that will play!

Thank you Beverage and Neil. Loving this on the Powerpak. Sat for 4 hours last night playing with it.

Yup. I guess it pays to read the manual. smile Dang, I read it 3 times and I'm excited to get this working on some real hardware.

I did read it! Searched for transpose over and over, but I wasn't exactly sure what I was searching for. Took me an age trying to work out how to add a step. Slowly getting used to this interface.

There's a way to detune/transpose an entire track on NTRQ? Trying to play some track with electric uke.

Open Emu also runs .NSF and .iNES in Quartz Composer. One vote for .NSF here.

I really enjoyed post-hardcore with the Thursday and Glassjaw era, but it just went off the rails shortly after. And I enjoy Beethoven's later work, which pails in comparison to Bach's earlier movements.

i wonder if all the "songs" together could make a song...

Perhaps if all songs in the world get put together, you could make an ultimate song.

Perhaps it'll bring peace throughout the world.

Listened to a bit of this the other day, seems cool at points. Mainly the fantasy-esque vibes. And The Flaming Lips, though I think they're great, just didn't cut it with their version. It sounded like they were taking the piss out of the album at points!

I thought this was an April Fools joke and left my NES in the studio. Whoever it was that suggested it sucks! Haha. Spent the last hour playing with it through Quartz Composer. Which be very interesting to run through that. Live generative sound and visual pieces.

Even on a keyboard, it's intuitive. I do find button combinations slightly daunting, due to accidentally changing settings yet accustomed to and starting to change songs and not know what is saved and ahhhh, head-fuck! But it's great and can't wait to get some tunes out of it. Bravo!

This is covered in D-Pad Hero. It is quite good.

Duck Tales and Mega Man 3 have always stuck with me considerably.

I quite enjoy Time Lord and Digger T. Rock, not to mention how fantastic the music of Marble Madness is - though many prefer the other incantations of this soundtrack.

The average Premierleague Football player gets paid over £13,000 a week.
The average NHS doctor gets paid under £2000 a week.

"Why are there not enough doctors?! Seems silly! They get paid so well."

David Beckham makes more in a year than an average doctor and the average family combined will in a lifetime.

That sickens me.

I'm creating a piece of work that requires the NES control to control both visuals on screen (via USB/NES Retrousb convertor) and the NES console, simultaneously. I hazard a guess this may be rather easy to do, just a case of splitting the cable and adding another male on the end.

Would anyone here be willing and able to create this?

If a unit takes 2 weeks to produce, and he sells 2 units a month, the person who order longest ago will never receive a unit!

The orders will be fulfilled.
