Re: Chipmusic FAQ : New to Chipmusic? Read this! (83 replies, posted in General Discussion)
If you're looking to use a program, I'd reccomend using some vsti. files from tweakbench. Toad and Peach are professionally sampled instruments from Mario. As well as the Triforce synth, which offers a wide range of customizable Square, Triangle, and Sine waves. I've also been using instruments and effects from DARKWARE. The hentai themed skins can be somewhat obnoxious (unless that's what you love.) But, the sounds are very good, and most of them are free (as well as those from tweakbench.)
I hope I helped!
P.S. I'm not sure how new you are, but, if you're just getting into the realm of programming. I'd like to also recommend Reaper as a program; you'll need to download ASIO4ALL.

Topic: Minimalist Chips and Blips (Criticism) (0 replies, posted in Constructive Criticism)
I'm not sure if this is the right place to come for criticism on a production such as mine. I've been an avid member of various chip, and noise rock scenes. I created this short EP around the concepts of minimalism, and laziness. I used 3 samples (ripped from an emulation of Pokemon Crystal) on the album, and programmed it with Ableton Live 8.2.2. It goes nowhere near the range of professionally produced artists such as Starscream, or Sievert, or others. However, this was my first experiment in the realm of 8 bit programming. The inspiration came from bands like Knife City, or nullsleep.
I'd appreciate any recommendations (if any)
Thanks a lot,

P.S. I'd also appreciate any Vsti./Vst. recommendations, I'm currently using Reaper.
