Passive mixing should work just fine if the impedances and levels are the same.
Prosound = high level but high impedance ( = weak "drive") by design.
Headphone output = lower level but low impedance ( = strong drive)

I.e., the headphone output has a lower nominal level than the prosound, but it's better at forcing the junction between the two to its own nominal value.

This isn't really rocket science. All you should need to do is make a special 3.5 mm -> RCA cable for the GBP with a small resistor across the signal lines (left and right) to increase the impedance a little. I can't give you an exact recommended value but something in the range 22-100 ohms should do it. This cable will still be fully usable with only one thing connected, although the added resistor might make it more physically fragile. (Risk for cracked solder joints or wier breaks near the solder joint.)

Then there's the added complication that the impedance of the DMG's prosound will vary with the volume knob. In effect, you should always have it at maximum volume, or the GBP might still overpower it even with the added resistor.

That's all, I think. Good luck if you want to try this.

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.
