I will always post this album when discussing GSXCC:
https://tenebrium.bandcamp.com/releasesWritten with a General MIDI sequencer and then converted with GSXCC but since it's completely original music and doesn't exist in any other released format than this, I think this may be a great example of how to nicely use GSXCC.
That and the music is spectacular.
GSXCC is a great tool. That's a very cool album.

quick no one tell him about the 909.
Wikipedia wrote:
All drums except for the hi-hats and cymbals are synthetically generated; there is an oscillator circuit with a dedicated filter and envelope curve. The hi-hats and cymbals are 6-bit samples, compressed and combined with a volume envelope curve (and tuning) to allow slight modification. Thanks to the analog circuitry, various aspects of the drum sound can be modified (pitch, attack, decay).
nooOOoo!
I don't think analog was a selling point back then though. They were competing with LinnDrum which was all PCM. These days it's like a badge of honor.

This is a bit different, but my app SquareSynth also works this way. You can have 4 instrument/channels, each with 5 voices, in iPhone. iPad has 8 instruments. Supports midi hardware input too.

@Bryface Thanks for the write up! So do you like it overall? Is it worth it considering how many alternatives there are?
Stab in the dark for automation sequencer... Try double-tapping/holding on knobs?

This is less than true as Android 5.0 Lollipop added low-latency audio support. I doubt Korg will be porting their apps (the App Store is a much better place to try to push a premium cost app), but we should start seeing drastically improved musical choices on the Play store soon enough.
I'm not an Android expert, and I heard about the improvement on Lollipop, but from what I've read and seen, it's still a problem for reasons which have to do with the Linux sound architecture.
Here is a post about poor test results of major Android handsets, with lollipop.

Here's a post about the deeper technical problem.

About the premium price thing, it's still $40 less than the Nintendo DS version, at non sale price, so I say it's a good deal.

^That would be cool, but I don't think korg makes Android apps. Any apps which need low latency audio are unlikely for Android, at this point.

Re: Anyone know how they get this bass sound (5 replies, posted in General Discussion)
Sounds like compressed plucked-bass samples. The EQ on the bass is interesting; sounds like a peak in the upper-mid range. I don't hear any LPF.

I'm a song mode guy. I like adding a lot of details and fills, and I can't plan everything out as well as I would like in live mode. The vast majority of my patterns are unique, live mode isn't super practical for me.
Yeah it's a little tricky to use live mode. I think it would be better if it had recording for sequences of chains, like I mentioned above.

i've always used live mode for lsdj and piggy tracker songs when playing gigs (and the pattern load screen in nanoloop) except for some situations where i was using additional hardware that kept me busy. makes it more enjoyable for me and i like the freedom to switch things around a little more on the fly.
That does seem like more fun, to improvise a bit. Plus it looks like you're really doing something, so people can be like "whoa he's going off right now!!" =p If only I could hook lsdj up to a keytar.
