Hey Ape, when's your store coming back up?

Should have something up soon, but probably not what you're looking for. Pretty much an entirely new shop.

Having trouble picturing what you mean, but I look forward to it!

Hey Ape, when's your store coming back up?

The BennVenn flasher is fantastic, highly recommended.

Seconded.

I just wish I could figure out how to get the 128m cart to work properly.  Cant find good instructions for it.

If there's no usb mini port, then you need a flasher device.

Any idea when you'd be getting el_dmg backlights back in?  amp_dmg's?

Not sure if you've ever held a Chinese clone controller, they are far from 'nice'. Flexible body, sharp edges on the buttons. You really need that 2 decades of finger mashing to round those edges. Or a legitimate dogbone controller which are rare in these parts.


Agreed.  I was lucky enough to snag an authentic one at goodwill for a few bucks.  The RetroPort adapter from retrousb.com is a little pricey, but works really well, and connects to the original plug pretty snugly.

I picked up a clone snes controller to use with my super gameboy, because I didn't want to wear out my original ones.  It really didn't feel right.

Wow just found this thread.  I'd really love to be able to save instrument presets, or be able to work with a set of globally stored instruments that aren't local to the song.  Might make it quicker to jump right in and start composing.

why not just use a nes to usb type controller?

The "dogbone" style gets even closer to the DMG button layout:

Feels pretty nice.

You could try bi-verting the screen to increase the contrast, or just flip the polarized filter, and go into LSDJ's settings to flip the invert the pixels back again.

For some reason, inverting the polarization increases the contrast.

I encountered something strange, I composed a song in lsdj from an emulator, and it was sounding ok. When I recorded it from my DMG, some arpeggios (using the C command) were missing sometimes, for example when I played it 5 times, 1 time it was correct, the other times some notes were missing. I used new batteries and on DMG it was correct. But with the same new batteries on a GBC, the missing notes were still not there, as if the GBC couldn't handle that many data. Is it a known issue?

I get this same problem, but with my DMG.  Sometimes I'll notice that notes get skipped.
