My guess is using paint pens, you may or may not want to clearcoat it afterwards

^Midi clocks are your best bet, but you'll need an Arduinoboy too.

Re: Diamond Elephant - my second chip tune (6 replies, posted in Constructive Criticism)
I like the track, it's really chill and isn't too overpoweringly chippy, if you know what I mean
As for chipmusic, anything made with legitimate 8-bit sound chips is chipmusic to me. Sampling chip in other tracks isn't chip. It just has chip samples.
I like to record my tracks separately for mastering purposes (EQ mostly, I'm not huge on effects in general), maybe get an external/more stable clock, the gameboy's is kinda wonky sometimes.

I started writing music on an emulator, but now I use the atomic purple GBA that I've had since childhood.

Then you most likely don't have the newest version of the 64m smart cart.
Maybe not. I only bought it about a month ago though.

Re: Beginner MGB questions (27 replies, posted in Nintendo Handhelds)
I wouldn't knock the Pocket! The new version of the Smart Cart works great with an MGB. No dimming of the screen when you play a song and the battery life seems to be very normal.
Whenever I start a song on my MGB, it makes the contrast go out of whack, and I have to adjust the contrast dial. Even with brand new batteries.

Re: Beginner MGB questions (27 replies, posted in Nintendo Handhelds)
I have a MGB that I backlit/prosounded. Running LSDJ, it kills batteries in 2-3 hours. Prosounding it takes away some of the 'fizziness', but there's still a nasty whine that's left. Sure, the screen has fabulous contrast, but it's not worth it in my opinion.
Get a DMG, there's a reason it's the most popular
Oh, and I think that everyone's referring to the same cartridge, this one.

I have gameboy color with mini XLR connector for audio output it is much better
I ghetto rigged a cable that's 1/8 TRS on one side and XLR on the other. It's really useful.

Re: music you make vs music you want to make (72 replies, posted in General Discussion)
I've ended up deleting the last 10 or so song ideas I've had, because they don' turn out how I plan, or they don't turn out good enough. For me, the hardest part is converting the melody in my head into a tracker or other mediums.
