First, I'd like your idea, and I think LGPT definitely need sample pack.

It's not a big problem on pc, but it is boring on handled.
Ok I can throw sample on audacity but I like very small sample which take less than 100KB for loading times.
Your sample seem to be very small, so they work well on piggy.

If I can, I will say, sample need to have 8.3 naming scheme, it's easier to read.
They need to have a simple name and maybe category.

I think you are doing good stuff smile

Ho, sorry,
I mean, I have a two midi plug :
- One plug is a midi in ;
- One plug is a midi to DMG port ;

Daily I use a gba sp, and I think I could easily build a "midi to gba sp cable".
I don't know the pin which are used from the cable.

Could you help me on this side.

One last thing, I think you have made one of the best arduinoboy i've see.
Thanks a lot smile

I like the enclosure they are awesome, can't wait to receive this little beast !!!!
And thank you to make professional weapon wink

How did you make this enclosure ?
I'd like to know more people with this mechanical skills.

There is some supercard currently available on ebay.
I have buy it one yesterday, so I can say if it works when I will receive it.
The supercard work for a lot of game, but not all, there is some game which works slower : doom for example.

the m3 and ezflash IV are the best but too difficult to found one.
There is no good tracker on gba....
nanoloop 2.x is fine but there is no version which work on the flash cart.

I have big hope on this one.
The USB host could be really interesting, I think I will take one...
No i'm sure I will take one !! Maybe two wink

Ok guys, I had some of the same question last years and I have dig the Internet for you wink

For me the best way to start was reading some simple code and try to understand them.
One that was really helpfull was taken here : http://olofson.net/mixed.html
DT42 is a drum tracker which work with 3000 line of C using sdl.
It is not easy and well written but it contain :
- a nice sdl GUI ;
- a load save function ;
- a structure to store the song ;
- sample instrument : just trig ;
- a really basic synth  but well written and great to understand ;

There is also a minimal version without the GUI which take 1000 line of C, it's a strip down version of DT42. This guy has done a really good tutorial for anyone IMHO.

If you plan to write a tracker I think you should learn how to write  :
- a waveform generator ;
- a minimal sound mixer ;
- a pattern player with an audio engine ;

I'm not an expert in this area, I just begin to code a minimal player.
It play wave but the audio engine is not really perfect.

it's well written I think but I am a noob in waveform generation so i get broken c++ code.
It works I can generate sawtooth wave smile and I enjoy it.
I can't get a decent sine wave, i don't understand the full stuff...

Good to see there are people out there which write code, i enjoy this smile

And hope this will help you to begin.

Yes they are great, I have try them before, but definitely not for me.
They use a mouse thinked UI and I'm a linux guy I like keyboard, keypad.

I don't need too much channel, I like to play for example "three different note" together without changing windows view all time.

A UI view with display all 16 note of the 8 current played channel.
I know it's difficult to create/build properly.

I still think "standard tracker" are easier to use to create a simple melody.
Piggy and lsdj has the same problem for me :
- Bassline are easy to create
- drum track easy
- tempo, volume, kill, rtrg really easy

But melody, it take me hours to put melody note from my brain into piggy.
I have'nt this problem with impulse, milky or a piano.

What I imagine could be a view which 'only display' :
- 16x8 note of the currently played channel.
A read only view could give a help to my brain.

A fix with legato which work with 0000.
Don't understand why it work like pitch 0000, maybe my ghetto build ?

A "preset like" storage area, to import export instrument and/or table
