To continue the NSF discussion in the other thread...

Yeah, tons of people still use em.  They're highly regarded as the standard for NES music.  Famicompo, Battle of the Bits... accept NSFs as the sole format for NES music entries.  It's a nice little file format indeed.  And MANY media players accept NSF just as they accept MP3.  Make it happen, Neil.  MAKE IT HAPPEN.

NSF is widely accepted.  Rockbox supports NSF so I know people are litening to NSFs on the ipod.  Most emulators play them, too...

I listen to NSFs in FCE on my Wii while I clean my house.  big_smile

i think if you get good at creating your own samples you can minimize the issue. but it will never go away 100% and you just have to deal with it.
I personally dont use drum kits, so i'd only use the kits for other items.. if i need realistic drum sounds or something that a game boy can't make. i'll just sync via midi and trigger via external sequencer.

This.  Logan's right.  If you hate the shitty sound of the kits on LSDJ, don't bother going to the trouble of recording separately and cleaning them up... just sync up to hi quality 808, 909, etc. sounds.

Also, probably the most underrated nsf ever:

1-X-0 by Rushjet1... from Famicompo4 (I think)

From this year's Famicompo.  I know you'll love the funk in this, br1ght pr1mate.  Also, illest "vocal" programming EVAR.

I gotta load up the demo sav on the dinger.  And on the wii.  big_smile

I did some more digging this morning.  I think I guessed correctly yesterday:

Stevie was also big into layering tracks so linde's idea of bass guitar and moog together seems likely.

Sick video, lazerbeat!  I don't think it was the talkbox on "Maybe Your Baby" though.
