Cat's out of the bag here, commencing a potential thread hijacking:

I have been speaking with Solarbear, Mikeeteevee, Freque, and AndaruGO about a physical "patchbooklet" that is a little printed booklet that is 128 pages with a glossy laminated cardboard cover. The booklet would be just small enough to fit inside a GB cart case (the clear kind) that is found on many of the shops. 128 pages, half filled with presets, half of the pages left blank with instrument templates you can fill in.

The books would cost pennies on the dollar to produce (about $300 + shipping for 2,000 books), and the time to get them printed and shipped would be about 1 month. All I need is patches to put in the first 60 or so pages. I'm willing to dig into my own pockets and sell these at a reasonable price (less than $4 before shipping) assuming a test batch is good quality.

The appeal of these books would be: portability, independence from the web (allowing for multiple edditions and collectibility), the ability to personalize the book (doodles, notes, custom instruments, etc), and the feasibility of people using these to trade patches at stuff like Blip. I am well aware that some save swapping and patch sharing happens, and it would be neat to see some sort of physical medium we could carry this "data" in.

If you are interested in helping out with this, PM me, this is going to be my new big endeavor after BRKfest aside from another hardware project.

Feel free to blast/criticize/demoralize my idea, or improve upon it.

My father, pre-exposure to Danimal Cannon:
"Why aren't you playing any gigs this week?"
"What, no parties to DJ?"
"Why are you in your room playing videogames all day?"
"Why can't you write more music for real instruments?"

My father now:
'This Danimal fella isn't bad."
"Why aren't you playing any gigs this week?"
"What, no parties to DJ?"
"Why are you in your room playing videogames all day?"
"Why can't you write more music for real instruments?"

>.<

He's probably going to do a clear frontlight, you know from the GBA SP, if he does frontlight it.

Boy Scout checking in. I second this.

Sick stuff. I actually started my own tumblr two days ago, and it too is in a blog format. Definitely following you on Blogspot!

I spam my tracks on Facebook so I can feel good about my listens on Soundcloud going above the typical 11 listens in a month. When I hype releases, it's like "Here's my music... it's free... I kind of like it... it's free... please listen... I tried... I promise... or just forget about it..."

I need to do better with this xD

I don't know about the rest of you, but Morugama (Mole Mania) is a fantastic game that does not use SRAM and is worth a look.
