Re: Has anyone used a Pokket Mixer (uber tiny DJ mixer) (16 replies, posted in Other Hardware)

$112 for that SOB? i could grab an MX400 for a third, maybe even a fourth of that price and get the same portability and functionality with the hardware i'm using taking care of the rest...

Unless you rehouse your GB in a ming dynasty vase, it'll probably still handle your pocket regardless of mod.

+1. that really applies to any GB - they're some tough damn cookies. i've dropped, sat on, kept in my pocket, and even hit myself pretty hard with my gameboy on several occasions and i've not had a single issue aside from an audio channel cutting out on my non-prosound jack.

since I'm not very good at making things that aren't Gameboys sound good.

you just released On Thin Air, shut up

actually doesn't sound bad at all. tbh your bass is a bit shoddy, and i'd suggest adding subtle reverb in some places to make it sound a bit better.

This is basically what I meant. I mean, I don't wanna say busking is stupid. My "but why" comment was in regards to going balls to the wall when it's like nobody around cares.
I guess I'm just more of a timid person when I perform. I mean, I would just feel odd dancing like crazy unless there's enough social energy to really justify it. Call me a social leech if you want, but that's just how I feel comfortable with those things. I'm not the first one to dance, ever. Not at an indie gig or a party or anything.

are you me

I wouldn't be so concerned with how it "looks," guys. If you're looking at it from an outsider's perspective, what's the difference between being out in public and jumping around with a gameboy and being on a stage and jumping around with a gameboy? I feel WEIRDER on a stage performing with Gameboys because it makes the assumption that I've done something or am skilled enough to have been selected to be there, when I really just asked or was asked. I think we're just going to have to deal with the fact that performing music with old video game systems is always going to look silly, regardless of where it is; might as well take advantage of it. I've busked at multiple conventions (SD Comic-Con and GDC in SF), and those were some of the most well-attended and well-received gigs I've played. Chiptune is pretty much the most portable electronic music that exists, and to write off busking just because it "looks silly" is a little short-sighted.
As far as speakers go, I'm going to put my slip in for the microcube, but if you go for the bass microcube amp, you're (pretty obviously) going to get a better bass sound, if that's what you're into. There aren't very many other good battery-powered amps or speakers out there, unfortunately, but the Microcube series is as good as it will get for your needs.

we're not really writing it off - just saying it looks rather silly and we personally would prefer to stick to playing our songs in places where we know people will like them, or at least a place where if we look silly while we're doing it then we're in good company. (although you do have a point, either way we look like idiots)
