You are welcome.

hahaha... Its funny you mention Knife City. He pretty much pioneers his own genre. I know, too, that the original/working title of Slam Dunk Life Style (@06:52) was actually Knife Step.

I can't wait for those Fami-Mod videos... I bought a Famicom while I was in Japan about a month ago and haven't done too much with it because I am having a hard time finding good AV schematics that are in English (I am also a bit novice when it comes to modding).

It is worth every penny. I highly recommend you actually use the full version.

You could also try some pitch automation... I think that could give you a more linear slide.

I recommend you read the manual.

The short answer to your question is no. You could just as easily use a sample sound and load it up as a loopable instrument and go from there.

There is some really good harmony in there and it is a really good song regardless of it not being DnB; however, if you did want to go with more of a DnB sound, I would recommend just spacing things out a lot more... By this, I mean that you should have points in the song where it is very minimal and is just the bass and very few leads, then you can start stacking on more harmonies to bring the song into frenzied climax. A good example of this is being very well implemented is in Pendulum's song Witchcraft (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ogMNV33AhCY). You should also try to make every beat feel very hard hitting--like the recoil of firing a gun (Like the punch in this song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cvq7Jy-TFAU).

My advice is to look for a school with a good music program and then minor in electrical engineering. I do think you should give some serious thought to what you want to do with your life as it will become increasingly difficult to change the path you tread on. I, myself, am going to be a Cadet at the USMA next year and am hoping to go into cybersecurity and do spook-work.

I really enjoyed--and this is mostly because I played them soooo much as a kid--the soundtracks for the Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages and Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons games. They were really effective at eliciting an emotion which complemented the environment.

Take for example these two tracks:
The Zora Village song from Oracle of Ages

and Level 2: Dancing Dragon dungeon theme from Oracle of Seasons

That mod has been done horribly wrong. I'm confident that your FC still works (they're really hard to kill) but it's a little more complicated than just wiring it on.

The output of the video amp is high impedance, which means if you take video from the labeled video solder pad, video gets pulled to 0v the moment you connect the tv's 75R input. Also; nothing should be coming off the the smaller board, that's the R/F modulator, and it has a crap signal. Everything needs to come from the motherboard.
Audio comes from a pin marked "SOU"
This is how your video should be wired up; The resistor on the left should be 1k ohm and the one on the right should be a 75 ohm.

Alright, I understand that (and have the ability to do such a fix), but what do I do about the audio? I am sure the audio is likewise hooked up wrong. Most of the threads and sites I have tried to look up this information on are too old, 404, or in Japanese.

(I apologize if I seem a bit noob-ish... It's just that I don't do a lot of modding and I don't want to screw up my system.)

Okay, so I recently purchased an old Japanese Family Computer (HVC-001) that had already been modified with RCA switches while I was in Japan. Unfortunately, it did not come with the original AC adapter, but I am fairly sure that the Logitech AC Adapter (Model: ADP-18LB B     LPS, Input: AC 100-120V ~0.4A     50-60Hz, Output: 24V --- 0.75A     - --- C --- +) I have should work. The problem that I am having right now is that I am unsure of how to get it to work on my television. I have plugged everything in, put in a Dig-Dug cartridge, and then turn it on... but I only hear a kind of high pitched whine from the system. I checked the channels in the upper 90s like some folks said they had success on it working in, but nothin'. I opened the system up and everything seemed fine with it---no blown out parts. So, my question right now is "Is my Famicom system broken, or am I just stupid and have configured the video settings wrong or have done something else wrong?"

I can post up pictures if necessary, but I would need to charge up my camera...
