Heh wow, didn't notice that. That's bizarre. It must be a way of cutting corners.

Hah neat tool. Thanks for the tip boomlinde.

Is it only 3 voices, or can you change it? (nm -- it's a zx tracker.)

Yeah that's looking like what I'm gonna end up doing. I am most likely going to use a couple different tones and not a song which I believe kitsch suggested earlier. Just got to get the idea approved. I wasn't looking for a super revolutionary project, but this is still cool.

As long as you're going that route, why not do minor scales vs. major or something? People always say that minor is 'sad'.  Maybe those plants will look emo.

Yah this app rocks. I'm hoping that there will be a mobile version of this site before I can start such a project. As everyone else I'm limited only by time. But that's a huge constraint. tongue

Plumbers outfit, big mustaches.

An "8bit" noise generator is basically a sample+hold. It switches the waveform between two different states (like -1, +1) according to an LFSR. But you could just generate the bits randomly, or select them yourself.

The sense of sweeping pitch is created by clocking the "noise function" (usually lfsr) faster or slower. If the noise pattern is very short it will sound like a pitched instrument, otherwise it will just sound like crispy noise at diff. pitches.

There must be an arduino proj that just does noise like this. Not really sure what op is wanting tho eg. hardware or software.

Anyone got a back up of nanostudio 1.33?

My pod got nicked, its memory wiped, then I got it back.

As my PC is a G4 mac with usb 1.0, I could never back up/ sync the pod, or put music on it.

When i went to redownload all my purchased apps, 95% of them have been upgraded beyond the devices capabilities (2g ipod touch, iOS 4.2.1)
So I got in touch with Nanostudio developer; whos only advice was, "go jailbreak ur ipod and find a dodgy copy as I cant give out an older version."

Even to someone who can prove that they bought the software! Fuckin annoying. Anyway, after jumping through hoops to actually jailbreak the thing, now I can even find a .IPA of nanostudio 1.33. Ughhhh!

Please help, all I want to do is use software Ive purchased legitamately, whilst avoiding Apples nefarious forced upgrade path and planned obsolescence. They can go suck a dick from now on as far as Im concerned

Yeah you've gotta jailbreak and install an old version of the app. It's a bummer, but good news is those things have been jailbroken forever. http://greenpois0n.com/downloads/.

Yeah if it could parse out instruments, and inject them into other lsdsng's – that would be epoch. Actually the whole thing is pretty cool. A public api would be great.

option a

edit -- Actually if there were a public api it would be trivial to make a desktop app to sync your .sav files to the cloud server. All kinds of things could be done. If someone were really cleaver, they could make it so you just plug in your usb cart at night, and the whole thing gets backed up, and new songs get saved to the cloud.

It can help if you pull your sample into a DAW, and put it through a "bitcrusher" -- set it to 4-bits, and around 11468 hz. It gives you an idea of what the end result will sound like. Then start processing it with eq, compression, and find the best settings (edit, put the bit crusher at the END of the effects chain). Then disable the bitcrusher and export.

As far as the clicking sounds are concerned, upgrade to the newest version of lsdj. If its still a prob. maybe you have a bad gameboy.

Edit: oh yeah, you have to figure out how much to cut the low end and high end, as they will only add noise to the end result. Littlescale's guide gives good advice aboud this too. http://little-scale.blogspot.com/2008/1 … -lsdj.html

Just keep in mind that you are hammering this sample into a very low resolution sampler, and anything that isn't loud enough will just turn into noise.

Depends. You could have an ugly-looking 320x300 version of the Pieta, or an HD 3000x2000 pic and it would make a difference.

But you're talking about a digital recreation of real-life art. Replace art in my post with digital art. I guess that makes more sense.
