Re: Stockwave, again!!!! (47 replies, posted in Collaborations)
Okay guys, so I just found out about Soundplant, and thought I'd share it here. It's free for non-commercial use and pretty much turns your office computer + keyboard into a sample player to be used like a stripped down SP or MPC. It's pretty easy to use and can add a nice "live" element to your stockwave creations.
thanks for this it seems really useful

Re: Raspberry Pi B+ to make tunes? (15 replies, posted in Other Hardware)
you are right actually, what i remember i think is that it had a good gpu but none of the linux distros you could get for it were programmed to make use of it! maybe that has changed by now
in any case i am not sure if it is as bad as you make it out to be! it is just different to those things... running a web server or a c compiler or an irc bouncer or schism tracker would probably be a massive pain on an ipad (and they cost £400) and all those things are easy to do on a raspberry pi (which costs £40)

it works really well for schism tracker although going fullscreen proved too taxing, i guess the gpu is too weak. anyhow i wrote a couple of albums on it using schism tracker and since it is too slow to run anything else it's great 'cause there are no distractions!

Re: Study into chiptunes fandom. (54 replies, posted in General Discussion)
i will take your survey!!! but i will say that this site is mostly used by people who make chiptunes i think so if you are covering people who "just" listen to chiptunes you may also want to look at the chiptunes reddit and maybe facebook or other places i don't know about as well

Re: LoFi SES (65 replies, posted in General Discussion)
lofi ses seems exceedingly lame but more in a funny way than a frustrating way
honestly anyone who wants to spend $500 on a bright red game controller that makes noise beats probably deserves to have $500 less thann they have right now anyway
kickstarter is weird!
