I read something described chip music as a kind of folk music.

So I like to refer to myself as a folk musician of the videogame era.

But usually I just say "I write songs about whales"

Perhaps the Arduinoboy should be added again, sans MGB.

It can sync nanoloop and LSDJ, and also has a mode to emulate keyboard control in LSDJ.

I'm going to be using it to control a sammichSID, so being able to send lots of midi CCs is something I'd like. I'm not sure how Piggy deals with that.
As I said, I have a copy of live now, so that's sorted.

GBCs I think need to be frontlit. Something about the way the colour lcd works.
You'd want something like this

Apparently it can also be done with a frontlight salvaged from an SP.

Edit: http://forums.modretro.com/viewtopic.php?f=40&t=916 This thread on Modretro explains the process.

iLKke: This page exists http://lsdj.2x26.com (linked with 8bc though) Some of them have previews.

If someone were to code up an alternative, it could live on chkdisbrk.com.

LastKnight - That would be awesome actually, it looks like it would do everything I want it to.

iNFOTOXIN: It is made with max in mind, but I should be able to write up something to send the data from PureData into live.

I'm really surprised there haven't been any other attempts to fill the roll played by live

To everyone else: thanks.


Solution: got a copy of Live Lite 4 from LastKnight(which incidentally auto upgraded to 8 lite)

There will be no disclaimer.

There will only be more brutality.

It's an arduinome, and it's not that I can't afford it, I'd just rather save myself some money and check out other options.

I've been looking lately for something to sequence and play back midi from, but I want something that I can use live.
The way I write songs isn't very linear, and i don't think I've ever written out a song from start to finish on LSDJ, i just make a bunch of chains and swap between them as i go. I want to be able to do this.
This is where Ableton Live comes in. It seems like the only software that can really let me do this easily, of course I could always try write it up in PureData, but I'd still have trouble getting everything sequenced nicely.
Right now, given that I'd like to keep it legal, Live "intro" seems like the best option, but I'm all for saving money, and looking for alternatives.

So is there any software out there, that would offer a similar "live mode" and would allow me to use a combination of monome and midicontrol to launch and control messages sent.
I should've mentioned I'm on OSX, so that would be an extra limitation.

Not pictured: Laptop.
Soon to be added: sammichSID

I've yet to really integrate the toy guitar into stuff im playing now, but I've used it for a bunch of mashups in the past. Maybe i'll use it to play the sammichSID

This one uses two tables, I use one when its a bass, the other when it kicks
