I've got only these two crappy pictures made with my phone - 1 and 2
I don't think it's a ideal solution beacuse I'm pretty sure that there is a more comfortable GND point. Also it would be a good idea to incorporate the volume pot for volume control and the gameboy proprietary audio socket for a cleaner look.
works now?
SirPrize: I'm pretty sure these are the two but I can't test it so I'm not 100% sure ;/
Red - L
Blue - R
ant1: if you desolder the capacitors you won't get any sound from the speaker 
Ordinary 2.2uF electrolytic capacitors do the trick aswell - SAMPLE
SirPrize: I can't see why not. Unfortunetly I sold my pocket to a friend of mine for a few beers. You'd need to check which two capacitors to replace. Though I don't know how the bass sounds on the pocket already so I don't know if the diffrence would be so massive as on the GBC.
Here you go - POLAR ELECTROLYTIC The result is very similar
Maybe later I'll buy a pair of cheap 2.2uF and 10uF to estimate the best capacitor value
I had a spare left and they work better as coupling caps.
Using polar ones isn't such a great idea because you subject the capacitor to backwards voltages on half of every cycle of audio. Such a brief reversal won't cause an explosion, but the capacitor will behave more nonlinear and in theory it will influence the sound.
EDIT: Maybe tommorow I'll test it with uber cheap polar ones and upload a demo to check if there's any real difference.
Hey I dunno if anyone else uses a GBC here, but I wanted to share my new mod with you
I stumbled upon a few of those "bass mods" for DMGs and thought about applying something in similar fashion to my already prosounded GBC.
So the idea was to replace the capacitors connected to the sound outputs on the CPU with something bigger and fancier .
4.7uF capacitors will do the trick
Blue - L
Yellow - R
Red - GND
You need to desolder the old capacitors and solder the new ones to the L and R solder points. Then connect the new capacitors and the GND solder point to an audio socket and voila.
It's super easy if you already have a prosound mod.
Oh, and I almost forgot... Here are the sound demos
Raw, recorded in Audacity through Line Input in my PC.
LITTLE TO NO BASS ;(( before
UNLIMITED BASS! after
I hope you'll like it
GBP SOLDER POINTS - NOT TESTED
btw I also made the "noise filtering mod" and its super cool
Yep. Im right. The polarity doesnt matter with only one speaker
doesnt matter
Nanostudio for ios - http://www.blipinteractive.co.uk/download.php
You can check it on a PC/Mac before buying it
EDIT: Beatmaker 2, Sunvox, iMS-20 and nanoloop are also worth checking out ;p
Instabought. Super awe desing
Like they said on the giant bombcast: it's Graphics Interchange Format not Giraffe Interchange Format so it should be pronounced giff
I have one question. On the website it says "Load additional 32k ROMs, such as mGB, on nanoloop one." But mgb is 64k isnt it?
Update fixing the bugs reported here:
I'm happy to see the arpeggio mode fixed aswell.
I noticed that pressing start on an empty cell doesn't go to arpeggio mode now but I understand that it isn't a bug and it has something to do with the new global mode changing function by pressing start+a.
Also is there any chance for a mute function by pressing start like on 1.5?
There is a song in the music section called 'mrx - nanoloop 1.6 snippet' but it doesn't showcase any new interesting stuff in my opinion
I got mine on friday and I think I found two bugs - the panning icons are messed up while using the gate envelope and I can't get the slur function to work. Anyone else has problems like that?
EDIT: I found out that I can't paste notes with the A button in the pitch bend/LFO section on the S channel after loading a pattern from the file menu.
EDIT2: Loading from slot 0 doesn't erase my current pattern.
