Re: software vs hardware - time to move on? (71 replies, posted in General Discussion)
I always remember that one insane c64 demo that pushed it so far it didn't even sound like a SID any more, it sounded more like a sampler (can't remember what it was called). It pushed it so far that people who liked SID music basically passed it over because, despite being legit on the hardware, it didn't meet their expectations.
i'd say this problem exists on a broader scale in most scenes/mediums of art...

Re: A Chiptune Reddit+Last.FM Type Website (16 replies, posted in General Discussion)
I think a Last FM style site specifically for chiptunes would be great and quite interesting to develop. It would need a lot of hard drive space though, i've just had a quick look on 123reg and it costs £75 a month for a vps with 300gb so would the site would need a way to fund itself.
there are way cheaper hosting deals than that

Decktonic wrote:Because Xilent is not sampling another artist's work without permission. What you are describing is total apples and oranges. A little Internet research will uncover what Crystal Castles did that had everyone so mad.
No, I mean kids rip offing crystal castles style. Every upbeat sliced vocals song you hear around (kap bambino, you love her cos shes dead, any hipster from Austin, Tx) gets shit from "real" chiptuners, yet this guy takes advance from 16 bit nostalgia and its all fun and smiles.
For the record, the song is not bad for lamestep.
i cant say i know any of the artists youre talking about so i cant really say why they may or may not get shit from people (or even if they do or its just a perceived us vs. them thing as happens so often in this scene)

even if you use midi, nothing wrong with a kpmini... i used to have the kaoss pad entrancer (audio & video effects in one unit, most similar to the kp2 for effects, w midi) and switched to the mini for size reasons and just use the manual bpm control on the kp mini
