This.

I like that gameboy wink

But seriously, it's an awesome video!
I'll spam it everywhere big_smile

Fun fact:
A friend just said he had a lynx, and I thought "is there a way of making music on a lynx, and how does it sound?"
So I googled, and came to this thread.

It sounds cool, I like the bassy sound of this machine. The subtle decays.
Yes, this machine has a lot of potential.

I might try to give the chipper a shot, something new big_smile

sorry, i should have been more clear.  I want to try to make your buttons.  I just looked at what i said, and i guess i never mentioned it was the painted buttons i wanted info on.  Usually when i see them painted underneath they don't seem to be quite so colorful.  I can probably figure out how to make bubbles, but that also adds to the appeal of the look for me.  was it intentional?

It was somewhat intentional.
i wanted them a bit rough, with some splashes etc. the amount of bubbles was unexpected, but quite cool.

The important part is picking the right paint tongue

The 3 in the right corner are for sale (black to transparent gradient, yellow to green/blue and the smokey grey, although my father was interested in that one.)

your father has good taste. my favorites are the top left 2, bottom middle and right middle.

The buttons are transparent painted with yellow and green and bubbles. tongue giving it a bit of a marble texture inside.

I don't fully understand how you did this, but i love the look.  They are so colorful and interesting to look at.  I tried to figure out how to make a coherent question and failed.  can you give precise painting steps?

Basically, it's a clear case, that was painted from the inside. I did a short explanation earlier in this thread here:

Also, can we get some more pics of your wood that kitsch mentioned?

oh my...


(I'll see if i can get some more detailed pics later)

TimBob, the maestro of perfect color combos.

middle row on the right, the bluish one.  what colors did you use?

Haha big_smile thanks.

It's a fade from purple to blue to transparent grey, with some blue splatter.

The buttons are transparent painted with yellow and green and bubbles. tongue giving it a bit of a marble texture inside.

I just noticed I forgot to add a screen protector to this one. But a clear one would look good, because of the transparency.

is the top row middle column one (black/white/orange) tapered slightly towards the bottom, or am i just seeing things?

I think that's just a shadow/perspective thing. It's a white kitsch bent case.
Painted with a grey fade.

So let me know if you're interested.

OH. MY. GOD. Bottom-left. I consider it a sin to taint the appearance of a whiteboy. I WAS WRONG, that is honestly the greatest DMG I've ever seen. Well done, Timbob. Well done.

I didn't drill any holes, so you can restore it to factory settings tongue
It's hard to see the backlight on this one. But it's an EL panel, and looks like this:

I'll just leave this here...

Seriously, he's the man you want when it comes to reverb.
The guy rented a church to record his songs.

There was a topic a while back where he explained some stuff.

you can probably resolder the led. if you're a bit handy with stuff like that..

peel off the diffuse layer, so you  can access the led, and try fixing it with a bit of reflowing.

or buy a new one tongue

Which colour backlight did you get? And did you remove all the protective foils? Those can give a weird effect when left on.

I don't see how a differen power point could effect the image..

did you do a lot of stuff in lsdj to change the songs?. some seemed different and much longer. cool!

well done & thx!

Most of the middle part are unchanged, I did change some intros and outros for better mixing.

Also, I didn't do any stuff like eq, compression or reverb afterwards since it was a mix and all. So that might have changed some of the sound smile

And thank you big_smile

What? You are used to automatics? big_smile

Actually, I don't even have a drivers license, I just wanted to be funny and literal.

But I failed, because now I have to confess I don't know how to drive at 31.

The end.
