As far as I remember, in *slave* mode, LSDj interprets the first byte as start position. In other words, LSDj should ideally be in MIDI mode for sync. The MIDI was intended for the first generation NL MIDI adapter. LSDj's MIDI mode is just sync, and nothing else. No notes etc. 1 byte = 1 tick. This means that if the MIDI master sends additional bytes, they will be counted as sync and make the song go too fast.

I think that's a typo and that he meant to say "founder of the dubcorestep style".

Is there a way to use this midi adapter to sync it with a drum computer or the likes? Without a pc and such.

Long ago, someone made a master sync device that would ouput sync signals for everything, LSDj, Nanoloop, Sync24 and MIDI. I'll see if I can dig it up.

I'm not in the market for this, but pictures are always a good idea to get attention. And since you're asking, I'd say the price a bit high. If you look at Nonfinite and Kitsch, their prices both start at $90 for a plain backlighted DMG, so unless the case has a really cool artwork, you might have a hard time sellling this for $100.

I know I can use the super gameboy, but it would be nice not to be tethered to the SNES, and maybe we could even get better video quality.

OH MY GOD THIS. THIS THIS THIS. NEVERMIND THE MIXER. THIS.

I'm just curious, what exactly do you guys want this for? LSDj tutorial sessions? Fullscreen gaming? Not having to hold a DMG in your hands? I don't want to flatter myself into thinking shitwave is this popular...

Generally with software under a free license, you need to license derivative works under the same license. It's doubtful whether sounds created with a piece of software qualifies as a derivative work. Watch out with samples on the other hand. As a rule of thumb, ask the creator of the sample if it's unclear whether it was meant to be freely usable in music production, or at the very least give attribution.

When someone gives away content producing software the idea of them then controlling the content is ridiculous..

That's funny, Apple's doing exactly that with their new eBook publishing thing.

You're talking about something completely different. From the consumer's perspective it's a way of restricting your access to what you have paid for. From the content producer's perspective, they're not selling software to write books, as much as a full service book publishing platform and service. What you're suggesting would be equivalent to LSDj offering an online store for music created with the program.

(I'm posting this comment here too...)

The 1.2 version could only partially read EMS carts, so it’ll be interesting to see if this revision makes a difference.

Nope. All the flashing action happens in the microcontroller software. The flash algorithms are fixed in the microcontroller code and can't be changed without a new firmware. The host application can only communicate via higher level commands, like say "read", "erase" and "write". It supports EMS cartridges "partially" in the same way as it supports game cartridges "partially".

Furthermore, I think this executable is badly compiled. First it crashed, complaining about missing D2xx type drivers. (There are two different types of driver for the USB serial used, VCP, virtual com port, and D2xx)

Ok, so I can deal with that. Then, crash 2.

Notice how the path to the Qt dynamic library is specified to be in that user's user directory and a few levels below. I'm not sure, but I think this will only ever work if you install the Qt library in the exact same directory.

Dont forget songs. Write some songs.

Good advice! Some people just don't take it seriously.

NeX has been doing this for a while already (without the extra PCB.) There's at least one picture of how he attached it, but I can't find it now.
