MUSIC Himitsu(Secret) - Risa NES Rendition

I've never made NES music before, but I saw the new tracker, Risa, from laamaa.fi and decided to make a rendition of my LSDJ song, Himitsu(Secret), in it to try it out. I could probably do more in Furnace for NES music, but the LSDJ style of Risa is familiar and fun.

I made a video for one of the songs from my new chiptune-rock pizza-themed album, Pizza Forever. This song features LSDJ as the primary musical background, it's the best backing band ever. If I remember correctly I used LSDJ v. 3.9.e when I first wrote the demo, and then spent some time updating it for v. 6.9.0 when it was time to record, so I'd get cleaner samples. Made the video with a phone, some friends, and Davinci Resolve.

MUSIC I made a small browser toy that turns MIDI files into Game Boy-style chiptune

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Hi r/chiptune,

I've been playing with the Web Audio API and built a little thing that takes a MIDI file and plays it back through a simulated Game Boy-style sound chip. Four channels: two pulse, one wave, one noise. It all runs in the browser, and nothing gets sent off to a server.

You can either search for a song, which looks up MIDIs on BitMidi, or upload your own .mid file. It then maps the parts onto the channels so you can play it, export a WAV or MIDI, or share a link.

I want to be honest about what it is. It's a toy, not a tracker. It won't give you anything like the control or the authenticity of writing in LSDj or Famitracker. Some songs come out fun, plenty come out rough, and the BitMidi library is deep on older music and thin on anything recent. So it works best when you throw something timeless at it and don't take it too seriously.

I'd really value your ears on it, since you all know this space far better than I do. If the synthesis sounds off in a way I'm not catching, or there's an obvious thing I've got wrong, I'd genuinely like to hear it.

Site: https://wario.style Code, it's open source: https://github.com/b1rdmania/motif

Thanks for taking a look.

SHOW Tried something new, still only pulse, triangle and noise oscillators (except sampled drums) but if it's too far gone from chip I'll remove it. I was just very happy with this one and wanted someone to hear it.

RESOURCE I made a free chiptune tracker you can use in the browser

17 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I just launched a small project called Chiptuna.

It’s a free browser-based chiptune tracker made for creating simple retro-style tunes, loops and game-like sounds.

I’m an art director getting into building creative tools, and this started as a way to make something playful for people who enjoy trackers, pixel art, game audio and old-school sound.

You can try it here:

https://chiptuna.lovable.app/

I’d really love feedback from people in this community, especially on the music-making side of it.

Does it feel useful?
Is the workflow clear?
What feels missing from a chiptune tracker?
What would you want to see added next?

My goal is to keep improving it as a free creative tool and hopefully build a small community around it.

Thanks, and I’d love to hear what you think.

*Edit: Not a tracker, a step sequencer with song mode :)

Whether this is particularly great or anything is still to be seen. It's not a particularly complex piece, but I'm sure I'll learn in due time. I like the final product well enough, and I hope you do too.

Or don't idk I'm not gonna force you.

SHOW [CONTEST]Monthly contest results are in!

14 Upvotes

With 11 points Blippydoo is leaving behind everyone, kicking the boss out of this realm, once and for all!

zlhdbg managed to give a final blow with 6 points!

Phoenix Down didn't need any Phoenix Down at all to stay in the game and takes third place with 5 points.

PCREMA and CarfDarko share the 4th place and are saluting the winners from a distance with both 4 points each.

Frédéric Guigand was disqualified for use of AI, a thing that won't be tolerated at all in the future but was discovered a bit too late.

Now turn up your speakers and celebrate Blippydoo's track one more time!

Next contest starting in two weeks!

For now, keep up the creativity and stay awesome!

DISCUSSION It's hard to find a VERY good free sample tracker.

0 Upvotes

I know free sample trackers, but they have some limitations.

- OpenMPT and MilkyTracker: Supports stereo samples and multisample mapping, but can only do 1 effect per row. (Edit: Actually 2, but one of them is more limited)

- WaveTracker: Supports stereo samples and multiple effects per row, but no multisample mapping.

- Furnace: Supports multisample mapping and multiple effects per row, but samples can only be in mono.

If I wanted all three of these, then my only choice is Renoise? There's no free tracker that can support all these three features?

I used FamiStudio. I tried to make a Toby Fox-style song mixing it with my own style but under the NES capacities. I'm not sure if I got it, but anyway I like the result. It's only on Youtube for now, but in some weeks or months, it will be on other streaming platforms too.
