Re: increasing lsdj "efficiency" (24 replies, posted in Nintendo Handhelds)
Anyway, I'm not sure if the problems are related at all, but I'm curious what the song would do it you changed the groove to, say, 8/8? I'm fuzzy on exactly how the Groove settings and altering the base number of "Ticks" affects a composition, or how one can use it to create wiggle room for things like this.
I've been going through some stuff posted on LSDSNG Swap over the last few days, and stumbled on a track by Chromix written with a 3/3 groove. Assuming 6/6 roughly equates to 4/4 time in standard western music theory, would writing a song with a 3/3 groove be like writing in cut time (2/4 time)?
6/6 groove just means that ever first 16th-note step will run for 6 ticks, and every second step will run for 6 ticks. If you set the groove to 7/5 then your 8th notes will still run for the same amount of time, but your 16th notes will be swung. Writing in 3/3 effectively plays everything twice as fast.
In this case, changing the groove to 8/8 would make the song tempo slower, but every table would still be running at the same speed so there wouldn't be any real improvement in performance. Also, you can't do triplets (easily) if your song is based around an 8/8 groove.
Hah, I really wanna experiment with more complex grooves now (e.g. x/y/z)

The transitions in most your tracks are too fast and sudden, try learning to build and progress a tracks climax up and down more. Just my opinion.
yeaaaaaah i kinda agree but kinda don't cause i still love the various sections and this is only a real problem in a couple spots
i also would've felt like a hypocrite bringing this up cause it's quite likely that none of the songs on my next release will be longer than 2m30s lol

On second thought the price was pretty reasonable, all things considered: I just haven't seen such an expensive chipmusic-related item in, like, ever.
The white one is only $90 more than the others, too. That's kinda cool!

Re: How to Compose in LSDJ (28 replies, posted in Nintendo Handhelds)
Turned 18 a couple months ago, actually! Used to produce hands up stuff when he was a wee laddie, if that's your jam. I think he just makes a shitton of music in his spare time, that's how you get good real quick. But there's nothing wrong with simply progressing and improving in your own time.
This other musician I've been in touch with for the last few years only started making dubstep/complextro stuff like 2 years ago but now he's already a world class producer in those genres - simply because he just sits down and makes music 10 or more hours a day. Not everyone has that kind of dedication in them, though.

i can play but not fantastically because my circular breathing isn't the best! i need to practice that shizzzz...
i've been watching the videos on this channel and they're pretty engaging. they're not kidding when they say advanced tutorials, though.
if you ever come to sydney there are always dudes down in circular quay playing didge to psy/goa/illbient backing tracks. it's great.
