I haven't tried this myself but I wonder if the FDS waveform interface would be cool/fun to manipulate live, with the waveform as well as the modulation etc. Also, if you time it just right you can press f6 to loop the frame and ctrl+right to switch to the next one. If there was a way to get perfect timing with this method, there would be so much potential since you could also click on the frames in the little frame window. I'd probably make a lot of half-intentional 'mistakes' if I played live because I like broken sounds. Again, with timing you could play samples live and you could probably use the instrument editor live for tonnes of crazy stuff like more random, organic tremolo.

Somebody on the Famitracker forums posted a whole folder of most combinations of multi-module .ftm files. If I can be bothered to find the link I'll post it but you can probably find it yourself

My personal feeling on this recentely has been about house. I'm too young to have experienced all the real house music fully and I only recentely discovered it again and I feel like new 'pop house' has just shat on it all. I hate it

Re: I'd like to ask you a few questions a research paper on chiptunes. (33 replies, posted in General Discussion)
1. Around 10 months
2. The raw sound of chiptune, other amazing artists and the fact that I'd always wanted to make music and chiptune became a way for that to happen
3. Famitracker on my laptop
4. All sorts, I don't really have a genre specific taste. It ranges from electronic through folk to rock.
5. I have never taken a formal music class apart from basic guitar chords and stuff from a friend
6. I think Famitracker is awesome. It's worth going on their website and finding some music people have made to learn some techniques, this applies to any hardware as far as I know.

Re: Help with song writing. (33 replies, posted in General Discussion)
I'd get any kind of instrument so you can doodle melodies without having to mess about with lsdj first. I suck at writing too, and I rarely have a melody in mind before I start making music, and tend to just go with what comes to me. I too have no musical background and the main problem in writing for me is/was chords, not just getting them to not sound horrible but also getting them to fit with the mood instead of just finding what sounded like a chord and going with it. I think the main thing that helped me with writing was finding my exact taste in melodies/chords and channeling those styles into my own. I hope this helps, but then again I am a rambling fail of a musician 
and yeah the whole looking at .savs thing
