What you have described is what I have always done and it works for me... but then again, Boise is a small city where everyone knows each other. It's much easier to get connections that way...

If you're in Portland, check out Dataport. A friend of mine told me they're looking for artists, you can contact Matt Hunter. It sounds like it's a monthly show.

I love Nonfinites products, but this is all quite disappointing to read. I'm sorry for your situation Anonymouse. Hopefully they get their act together and work this out with you soon.

I have never tried cleaning inside of one, but you could just replace it with a new jack.

No.

But you're just using it as one individual piece of your band. You're creating something different.

As for what chiptunes is, I think Danimal Cannon said it best: It's an instrumentation.

I get that this may be an unpopular opinion, but I definitely would call chiptune a genre. I think that the instrumentation itself is a significant piece of what defines a genre. For example, you can't really have "metal" without guitars w/ distortion; you can't really have "rap" without spoken vocals, and so on.
You can mix chiptune with the composition style of pretty much any other genre, but I would still think of that as chiptune.
