Just a question that came up to me while watching your awesome setups: How do you sync the DS with Korg DS-10 with a DMG?

"Jam it on the one".

Alternatively

So what do you use to make Genesis music, Silph Scope?, all the trackers for SEGA Genesis are closed source, do you code Z80/M68000 directly to make your music? Or you simply don't make Genesis tracks because there's no Open Source program?

Fun fact - most of the Sonic the Hedgehog hacking community does this not because tools don't exist, but because almost everyone is stupid and elitist. It's painful to watch, I used to do music this way. If you haven't pushed Deflemask at www.sonicretro.org, you should. They need to "see the light."

Didn't some dude on there do a HD remake of sonic 2 and add DRM to it?

If you have a simple way of utilising samples, a live mode and way to sync to a midi clock, this would definately be bad-ass.

OH SHIT email recieved. EXCITE LEVEL MAXIMUM.

Scotch Egg.

Got so drunk at a gig my mate went to that the venue cancelled the whole thing and refused to put on nights like that any more. True story.

Content: Any time this question comes up, people use EDM as the place we should be aiming. What about rock oriented chipmusic? Did Colonopenbracket forever taint that with the ghost of Malcolm MacLaren? Or are we afraid of forever being told we're Anamanaguchi ripoffs?

I've lived in leicester for like 4 years, and as far as I'm aware I make up exactly 50% of the chip contingent. There is some really cool non-chip music there however.

De Montfort University representing by the way.

Go to a car boot and grab an old gameboy for <£10. Get an EMS cart, and then throw Johan some dolla dolla billz for LSDJ. £50 max.

I spent my first few months of desperately trying to get my head around LSDJ on a pokemon gameboy color I bought off my brother for £3.

My favourite gameboy prank is telling everyone I make chip tunes and then getting up on stage and playing Mario. Preferably at a rave.

Working on raspberry pi based piggy setup for winter gigs.

I was looking for an excuse to get a raspberry pi.

I'd love some criticism of my song "Cutback Drop Turn". It's an older one from about 6 months ago I've been reworking, but I tend to get lazy when I'm finishing a song and leave weird loose ends I don't notice till later. Any thoughts you guys have would be really helpful.

CutBack Drop Turn

And for comparison if you want, the old version. It's a bit stupidly compressed.
Old Cutback Drop Turn

If anyone wants crit for crit as well, I'm up for that smile

Just LSDJ and a bit of reverb.

The scene that celebrates itself.

Lets combine whatever we feel like in our own music, in whichever way we see fit and let other people worry about the "how"'s and the "why"'s and the defences and the justifications.

I know a guy who has a bunch of the Planet Hollywood DMG's unopened in a lock up.

G commands change the groove, kind of like an A command will run a table.

Just put G01 at the CMD 0 position of every PHRASE screen in your WAV channel, and change the groove to 3/3. If you double up on your CHAIN screen, it will run in line with the other channels on the SONG screen, but you'll be able to fit in twice the number of notes in the same time as before.

Guess I should spend more time looking through the manual. Cheers guys!

yeah I guess it's hardly a new feature, but people have been pushing all the boundaries in 1xLSDJ. 2X has always been a bit of an afterthought...
