Pulse instrument 50pw (pulse width aka a square wave) with a table and the volume envelope something short with an e command a few phrases down to echo the instrument.
Table:
tsp

Post the actual instrument just for fun! I'm too lazy to dl the files 
It was a very simple C0C in the table with a 25% PW. I feel kinda stupid but hey, at least I know how her basses kick ass now! XD
The bass:
Play: Pingpong
Length: F
Repeat: 0
Speed: 7
Synth:
Wave: Saw
Q: 1
Phase: Resync
START:
Vol: B6
Cut: 1A
Phase: 09
END:
Vol: 4E
cut: CD

Try looping a pattern of notes in LSDJ or any tracker and just throw random commands while it loops - youll be surprised how just changing a few values can make something really unique
I've been trying that alot with Pxx.
If you get 'em right you can make a suh-weet synthesis effect.

Anyways, thanks for the advice and I'll try out HFF!
Haha thank you! HFF is a command that stops the song. It helps me take a break when I'm trying too hard to get a certain sound 
Super rad that chipzel shared the data!
I should probably take a break.
I've been working nonstop. Just so much fun!
chipzel wrote:But yeah, obviously you'll need to add your own touch and find your own style 
Finding and playing around with sounds is the best part of writing in LSDJ
Yeah I've been working on some stuff and I have a few WIPs on my twitter page.
And I released an album not too long ago.
If you could give me some feedback that would be suh-weet!

I hope you figure out the instrument problem you're having.
Chipzel just replied to the thread with the actual sav file for Tokyo Skies so all is good!
Water under the bridge!
Oh wow!
Thanks so much!!
can't wait to see what you do next and keep up the good work!

The centered instrument in the intro sounds like a tabled octave jump. Throw some 0C's on dat bitch
The other instrument just sounds like a pulse panned left and right, lemme hear u say Oxx
The reason your instruments may sound different is because many things factor into the instrument settings, like the Tempo of your track will affect the tables
But the real thing is: you only have a few commands, a couple waveforms*, three positions of panning**, and 15 steps of volume***, so fuck around with random shit-you wont break anything and you may come up with cool sounds that other people will wonder how the hell you did them too!

Can be looked down upon.
(directed toward katsumbhong)
Who says I can't ask how to do something?
This is general discussion, not a youtube comment section.
And also, I may be new to the whole chiptune thing, but that doesn't mean you have to put me down just for asking.

weird, which version of lsdj are you running? hardware or emulator?

My DMG is being repaired.
Thanks for the help guys!
I got some info in the LSDJ manual!

OH and the table automation thing has to be on
Huh really, a randomize command and automation?
I'll take a spin at it.

I have her old stuff. I really love all of her albums and tracks! And I don't doubt that she didn't have those skills the instant she put her hands on a gameboy.
And yup! Practicing all day, 'eryday!
L-tron wrote:I think what they're trying to say is that the arp you linked us to is a super simple, basic sound in LSDJ, and maybe you should learn the program more before asking questions like this. Anyhow I'm not trying to sound like a dick. I hear your music has a lot of potential and you have some good tunes! Keep on trackin!
I know how arps work, just that when I try to use them like she does it doesn't sound like her arp.
And yes I am very new to the program. I've had experience with Famitracker and FL Studio so it's a bit hard for me to get into a new system.
I've been doing this:
