why'd you make two topics for the same thing? please don't do that in the future, closing this one since the other post has far more info

About the gba -> pc connection, of course it's possible but you have to connect it to a line level input (not to the microphone one). If you're using an external sound card be sure you can also set it to line levels.

lots of sound cards (especially ones built in laptops) use the same input for mic and line, there's just a setting you need to change.. in win7, it's the "Microphone Boost" slider, just set it all the way down to 0 for line in. if connecting a mic, +10db is generally good.. earlier versions of windows just have a check box for "Microphone Boost" which you would just uncheck for line level input

moved topic.. the tutorials subforum is intended for those sharing how to do something, not those asking how to do it

I will use that excel list and upgrade mine during weekend...

you could just add to the existing spreadsheet since i think more people would check that as it is than search for a thread on here

you're all wrong.. everyone should only wear Oxygenfad, Yatagarasu, Stagediver & TCTD tshirts

please do not make 3 posts about the same topic. this forum doesn't get that much traffic, so your new topics are 30% of the threads with new posts in the last 12 hours.. closing and removing the other two threads.

because i'm one of the site's staff members, i'm supposed to read nearly everything posted to make sure no one is causing trouble

well, just another reason for me to say that Chrome fucking sucks wink
works fine in Firefox...worth making a new topic in the bugs section so nitro and trash can take a look when they have a chance

i grew up on c64 games, my dad had bought one when they first came out since he was into technology (he was an electrical engineer at Motorola for 23 years) so i grew up hearing those classic c64 scores... never gave the music in games much thought back then though, i've never been one of those people who listens to video game soundtracks (with the FEZ soundtrack being pretty much the only exception).. then in high school in the mid-90s, i got into Patric Catani's solo stuff and his work in Ec80r, but didn't really think of it as "chipmusic" at the time, didn't even know it was made on Amigas (though Amiga wasn't that old at the time either, my college still had some in 1998).. the first time i heard stuff and finally made the connection that it was chipmusic was Alec Empire's Nintendo Teenage Robots album and i immediately liked the sound of the noise channel.. i was already making music as e.s.c. (at that point, mostly strange downtempo psychedelic weirdness), so in 2003 i started looking into exactly how to make music on game boys.. LSDJ and nanoloop were still pretty hard to get your hands on back then, so i messed around on emulators first and sampled what i made and played it back on an SP202 (or back2basics after i traded the 202 for a yamaha cs01) until i tracked down a copy of nanoloop 1.1 off ebay sometime in late 2003.. met a bunch of people on the old nanoloop forums (like Calbee/DMG-01, Bit Shifter, Glomag, Jeremy Kolosine, Albino Ghost Monkey).. played my first chip-only set in dec 2004... eventually stopped lurking on 8bc and started posting (at first, only when drunk), somehow became an admin.. left 8bc staff fall of 09, left the site completely after Jose's weird meltdown in Dec 09.. a few weeks later, got drafted into helping get this site going

appears to just be you, did you make sure to only put the alphanumeric string that follows "v=" in the url? (in this case, that would be "hlXyyW7W9VI")

why the hell did you necro-bump this stupid post from 4 years ago?

damn, if you were in the US i'd take you up on this trade since i don't use game boys much in my setups at this point in time

the water park in osaka is meant to be class but i couldnt go cos of tattoos everywhere

wait.. what?

should work, yes... like i said, just keep the main out level low since it's probably sending line-level instead of headphone-level..

you could always use the main out for headphones with an adapter or two, just make sure to keep the volume level low so you don't damge the headphones or your ears

Those versions of LSDJ aren't even listed in the LSDJ version history. Either way, you should have sync set to "NANO" so it will make the clock adjustment.

those are nanoloop version numbers
