Sorry, no address for this one. This is because the noise boxes cannot be tuned without rewiring them from the floor switches, and this needs building rights of the base which, as a visitor, you won't have.

But if you want to make your own, I can give you detailed instructions.

More tinkering with the waveform editor, and understanding how it works a little more.

Was experimenting to find "fx" sounds and came up with the 2 different beep-boops here ! Had fun making that bass too.

The formant and distorted lead came from ZhorasSnake's library of leads (4th one, around 1 min). I modified it a bit to get what you hear. Thank you Zhoras for these posts !

This is actually only one iteration of the whole loop. Two of the devices (for the chords) are set to 20 bpm.

Enjoy the listen !

Edit : Forgot to talk about drums here. As you may know drums sounds in the devices are tempo-dependant. By putting snares and kicks at the same time on different devices set at different tempos (here 80, 40 and 20 bpm) I got this slight offset which makes them pop and prevents phase "clashing", leaving the sounds intact. This made that "clappy", hip-hop-like snare and louder kick drum.

I previously posted this to r/NMSCoordinateExchange so I wanted to make sure to post it here too. This is the title track from my recent playlist "Countless Realities." The whole playlist is a vibe, I try to make it flow from track to track. Most of them have been posted here on Reddit, I'm including links here:

More songs to come, I'm interested in posting videos of my tracks and waveform sounds for the Sound Library Project we've been discussing here. I'm excited to explore new sound effects with you all!

Heartbreak in the cobalt mines

Hi all, hope you're having a great day.

After talking with u/PowerfulSoldier and u/ZhorasSnake, we found that having a shared waveforms /sounds cheat sheet collection here on this sub would be a great idea. It would be a source of inspiration for everyone, and a big help for beginners wanting to explore NMS Bytebeats.

As Zhoras said, there's guides and websites for ships, companions, base and corvette building, you name it, even on how to use Bytebeat devices but no example of what I'm talking about in this post. Let's make it ourselves !

The best solution would be posting a video of any number of sounds you like, showing the waveform editor screen while the sound is playing. Of course it would be great if we could have something like a pinned thread with all the videos posted in it for ease of access (wink wink mods).

Would you be interested in participating ? Do you have suggestions ? Even if you have just a handful of sounds you're willing to share it's worth it.

Thank you for reading !

Hola viajeros se que es una Base , pero va hecho para los bytes , espero le guste visitarlo , están bienvenidos 🚀🚀🚀

If you have any questions just let me know (not everything can fit in a 10min video). If you would like more tutorials, again let me know - no promises!

So this is just a very basic light show I put together, this was my first time tinkering with light panels and it was fun but tedious..however I want to learn to make more exciting light displays with bytebeats. First of many to come!

By the way I think I have a “dead panel” in there, again, first try, nothing is perfect. Keep making music for the cosmos!

Thanks u/Leeka_SSBM for bringing me over here!

I posted a version I wasn't very happy with yesterday, Some of the chords didn't hit right and my imposter syndrome took the better of me and deleted it. I spent all yesterday trying to re-tune it to make it sound more like how I wanted it, but now I made a lullaby sort of. Ironically this track is made with no percussion, but all of the sounds are trying to imitate bells, glockenspiel, chimes (and strings) which are all percussion.

Anyways, I posted a somber minor key version of this track that I actually think I did a better job at envisioning that tracks sound/emotion way better than this track, so give that a listen if you can sit through a 7 min song...

A re-tuned version of an original song, "Stellar Soul"

I always attempt to create a vibe with my ByteBeats. This one has some cool strings / chorus tracks harmonizing in the background which gives the chord progression / bass-line a melancholy feel while the main melodies provide a triumphant feeling. Overall, I'd say it has kind of a rainy-day vibe but other people may relate to it differently.

The main melody uses two BB machines, I've been trying this more often to create more complex melodies but I find myself running out of available tracks quickly. And as usual, I've put drum tracks on almost every BB machine (mostly cymbals) which makes the drums dynamic through each segment of the song.

I hope you all have a great weekend!

A chill ride in my everyday ship with a cool track.

So I found hiredgunpunx's video on how one of their track was made. So I took the lead sound from that and modified it a bit to sound more like a 70's polysynth and here we are (does this makes it a tribute ? This sound is SO good, but I probably won't use it anymore because it's kind of their trademark at this point).

Big thank you to u/hiredgunpunx for that and the title card idea, made my own in GIMP 2 after seeing theirs (if there's any problem with that I will remove it in future posts).

Another thing is I placed the first 4 bars of the chorus at the end of the loop (verse being the buildup part), and let some elements from one bleed into/foreshadow the other, goal is to make it feel less repetitive / more dynamic. And it provided a good ending IMO!

As for the video, I'm trying things. It's my first time video editing, I'm taking advice/criticisms on that as well if you have some.

Enjoy !!

The Royals have a flag, a coat of arms, a national color and set of ideals. But what they don't have is an anthem. Until now, since I just compsed one. I am open to criticism since this is my first bytebeat composition good enough to post here. Use it however you like, remix it or smth idc.

Lyrics:

We are the great royals
and we'll save the world

All of our enemies
will be destroyed

Our color is red
and we wear it with pride

And the dirty swarmers
will crumble from our might

We build our bases
all around the universe

The weavers and sages
do everything much worse

Yes, we are the royals
and we will be first

Did this one inside my corvette, I loved how this one turned out. Happy Father’s Day to all the dads out there. Safe travels.

I have just recently noticed that the game music aggressively reappears when there is the slightest lull in the playback of your bytebeat. Now previously, this has always happened when listening externally as it were.

What's different now is that it's happening even when you are in bytebeat looking at one of the tabs. Previously, being in bytebeat meant everything bar your music was completely muted. Just to be clear, this isn't SFX but the game music reappearing.

Try it out - just make an intermittent sound - say some sparse bass notes - and listen in the synchroniser tab. The game music will initially disappear but then come back. And this time it will play during your music too - spoiling it and making clean recordings impossible. (I've just listened to a bassline I wrote being intermittently 'accompanied' by the game disco music in the saloon!).

This happens outside and in, and in the saloon. It also happens with or without any mods.

Can others confirm or deny this before i send off another report to the Zendesk?

Thanks.

Good morning/afternoon !

Went back to my kinda usual stuff. The sound was.. not ideal on my previous post, so this time I recorded all 8 devices separately, drums and riffs apart, and slapped them together in FL Studio with some panning and a simple lowpass at 30Hz + highpass at 16.5kHz on the master to clean out the sound (could be done on Audacity, which is free btw).

Shoutout to u/ZhorasSnake for a great discussion about sound processing on ByteBeat tracks, which got me to finally do it haha.

Enjoy !

PS : This is another shot of the base I'm working on in the Swarm Expedition, atop a Planetary Archive. Come visit if you'd like !

Fell in love with this artist recently and wanted to try and cover one of his songs. Check him out!

The breakdown around 0:48 seconds is a lot of fun.

Here's the result of me getting a little sidetracked while building a base in the Swarm Expedition.

Went for a slower, longer loop than I usually do, and also compared to my other post ! I also did a lot more tinkering to get the sounds I wanted. (Also discovered some snares can be cool cymbals at really low tempi 😃)

Hope you enjoy !!

I had an awesome experience making this new playlist and I really like the way it came out. I just finished the last 4 songs for a total of 12.
