this interferes with a compilation i'm putting together. it's specifically designed to make sure there's nothing left to respect or take seriously about chip music.

How come people can do rock/EDM/metal/jazz/folk/rap/etc. music inspired by video games, but not so with chiptune? That hardly seems progressive...

Oh, and R&B

So I'd have to make something completely non-video-game-inspired-in-every-conceivable-way-possible-with-no-possible-way-of-anyone-ever-being-able-to-say-"that sounds like a video game"-at-all-when-listening-to-it?

That's almost impossible. And probably wouldn't be acceptable as it's the complete opposite of what everyone else is trying to do. sad

I'm sorry, I need to stop making it all about me.

I like this music. It's catchy and complex all at the same time. Every time I hear chipmusic like this I think "This is what the classical music of today should sound like".

Sketchman in shy and is taking his time before he shows his stuff. He says he wishes to make stuff like op. I am eagerly awaiting more of Sketchy's music.

TSIBNB wasn't aware of Sketch's reclusiveness.

Everything clear?

Don't take that to mean I actually make stuff that sounds anything like Solevilo's music. "I wish" means exactly that. Like tossing pennies in a well.(hmmm... that'd make a good album title...*noted*), nothing will come of it. I've tried copping other peeps style... does not work for me.

Just to clear things up even more.


NOW MOAR CC for the OP!

All I can say is... make more music like this. *Goes of to search for more Solevilo music*

What are you talking about?

I don't think you missed anything, but I'm definitely missing whatever you're not missing.

oh i have never heard the specter circus theme or ever heard of ape escape

so probably not!

Incredible! Uncanny!  Great minds must think alike.

(someday I'm going to say "didn't you get that from this?" and be correct. someday.)

Ape Escape was a cool game for the PSX with cool, "easy to digest" jungle/dnb/whatever-it's-called-music-with-the-funky-drummer-sample music. One of my favorite games. Anyway....


Uncanny

L<OL I knew what it was all along. Haha, now I feel all smart 'n' stuff.

If I were good enough, I'd make it a royal rumble... but... nah.

I was going to suggest someone make a "F vs. SW vs. A" fighting game splash screen thingy. But you guys don't seem to have "character" avatars.

ive found that your groove can become fucky by doing the live mode one channel only thing versus muting the other channels in regular song mode.. especially for projects under heavy load. Even multitracking muted channels synced to an external clock "feels" different to me than just recording a stereo mix. Am I just being crazy?

Weird, I usually do something similar to live mode (start an empty row above the song and put a one phrase chain in front of the channel i'm recording) so that the CPU can focus entirely on one channel. cause when you solo a track, everything is still happening, just at 0 volume.

I guess that's why it feels different. Because all the desyncing that you'd normally get with solo mode is gone sad

Have you tried BGB + Wine?

Edit: Also, with recording to Audacity, if your soundcard supports it, try switching the input device from alsa/default to hw:0/hw:1, and using the device drop down list to select "mix" or whatever it is that records directly from your PC.

WARNING, on my system, whenever I use the hw:0 device, it always stops recording after a second or two when recording the first track. However, if you record a second track with a pre-existing track already in the mix (the one that got cut off, presumably) it should keep recording until you stop it.

Yeah, I know vbam doesn't have a wav output. But it's a more stable emulator in general for linux users than vba.

Are there any Linux emulators that have a channel-splitting feature and are compatible with Jack?

I've used both Mednafen and VBA, but no luck... and I can't get LSDJ to run at the correct speed with VBA, anyway.

If you want VBA on Linux, use VBA-M instead. VBA has always had glitchy choppy sound and slow speed whenever I tried it on a linux system (I've only had 3 Linux systems, though, all Ubuntu). VBAM, however, is awesome. I forgot how I got it, though... I think it's in the ubuntu repository as vbam. If not, then I'm sure it'd be in the getdeb games repository.

If you have Wine, try using BGB, and set "Graphics Output" to "GDI" or something else other than the default to get rid of the choppiness. That's pretty much your best option of all. It's not Linux native, but it works just like it if you use the right settings. Plus, when you record, even if the emulator hiccups while you're doing other tasks on your computer, it still outputs the wav file perfectly.

I think the emulator BGB has the ability to export separate channels. However, that doesn't do you any good if you're using an actual Gameboy.
