Nanoloop 1 sounds particularly warm and fat in this album. May I ask, how much did you pay per track for the mastering? Sounds like they did a really good job with it.

Re: What Instruments Inspire You the Most? (16 replies, posted in General Discussion)
Sunvox (android) mostly, but recently the Va-beast part of Gstomper studio (android) has been quite inspiring as well...also electric guitar with the korg pandora px4 has been giving me some nice inspiring tones. sunvox, gstomper va-beast and korg pandora px4 all stand in good stead wit me.

Topic: Has anyone tried using these gamepad+keypad controllers with android? (0 replies, posted in Other Hardware)
Lately there have been a lot of new controllers for android coming out.
The ones linked here look very interesting to me because they are gamepad/keypad combination controllers.
They look like they would be excellent for use with android sunvox or android (ppsspp emulated) littlegamepark tracker.
Perhaps especially useful with small android mobile phone screens.
Has anyone tried any of these?
I'd love to know if anyone can confirm if its possible to use the keypad and navigation d-pad with sunvox in particular (because littlegamepark tracker is designed for gamepad control anyway, i guess i could use any gamepad for that).

Re: Milkytracker vs Famitracker (9 replies, posted in Software & Plug-ins)
I havent used famitracker but from what I can see it seems like famitracker will sound better without too much aliasing in the lower and higher octaves because it uses actual oscillators rather than looped short samples (or single cycle waveforms). Also famitracker probably has better sound design options because of the MML instrument design system. However, famitracker's "speed" is just like the NES in that it is based on the 60Hz framerate and incapable of giving you true BPM whereas milkytracker can give you true BPM (much less hassle if you plan on rendering to .wav and loading up what youve done into a DAW or another more modern tracker such as renoise/sunvox).
I used milkytracker a lot in the past and it can sound awesome if you use the waveform generators in the sample editor menu along with the sample amplitude envelope. You can add your own little touches to the generated waveforms using the "draw" function and create instruments in which the volume rises and falls in musical timings (rather like an LFO). The aliasing you get with short looped sample based instruments can add character to the sound in its own way. Milkytracker has a great interface. If you have an old PDA, such as an HpiPaq Milkytracker is also one of the contenders for comfortable usage and portability because the D-pad + stylus combination is nice to use for long periods of time...you dont have to be hunched over a laptop or sitting at a desk.. very comfortble to use just sitting on the sofa.
If I was you I would take a good look at LGPT and Sunvox as well. Famitracker sounds absolutely beautiful in the right hands but it still has the no-true BPM and non-handheld / portable / comfortable problem.

I had exactly the same problem here:

It was a reinstall and less samples in sample lib that sorted for me
