09. This is an all-ages forum, so please keep it clean! As a rule of thumb, if you wouldn't send it to your grandma we'd rather you not post it here. Violation(s) of this standard may be considered justification for a ban by a staff member.

Why is this rule not enforced?

casual swearing was never the issue meant to be dealt with by that rule (as is clearly the case here). more intended for insults, slurs, etc.

so if you aim to make money off of chiptune while also raising public awareness with the goal of furthering the scene/sound/movement, you would invest in the live side of chip.

Dance music is profitable based on attendance at raves, straight up. The first step towards making chip profitable would be to adopt the structure and promotion network of the rave scene. I think that Eindbaas is doing a good job at this, but there is much more that could be done.

If a couple few dance/bass chipstars were to find themselves onto the roster of a successful booking agent, awareness would absolutely be raised through exposure.

Going beyond this, contests with rad giveaways is another huge facet of marketing this sort of music (not chip in particular, as I don't think it's been done.) Facebook pages which give away CDJs and other DJ/production equipment blow up real quickly when you require contestants to like the page, share the giveaway posting, sign up for a mailing list etc.

Basically, promo is what chip lacks, due to the fact that there is no real money in chip. Making smart, strategic investments could very well change this, though.

wait, we can still give real responses in here?

Doesn't even need the same lineup. I suggest either grafting it into the Kentucky event, or creating a new, demoscene-like event, organized and run by Bright Primate.

no, MUST literally be that exact lineup. good luck tracking down albino ghost monkey and convincing him to play

What were some features of 1.1 that are different from now?  I can't seem to find the manual anywhere online to get a description.

roughly the same as 1.2, but only one custom waveform instead of 16 for the s channel, if i remember correctly

well, theres a shitload...
for pc: neuromixer, cthuga, arkaos are all good places to start
for handhelds: sqj, pikix, super pikix, pikilpitia advance

and of course the whole no carrier suite for NES

probably easier to help sort it out if you hit me up directly through facebook or email, narrow down what youd want to do and what works best for it
