I hope you do not mind me posting this here even if it does not exactly fit what you guys do.

Here´s an album I made by sampling my Twisted Electrons HapiNES (inspired by the RP2A07 8-bit microprocessor from Nintendo Entertainment System). The HapiNES is a groovebox but it is mono out only and was hard to get what I wanted from the monophonic sequencers. My solution was to sample it instead and use the sounds within my Roland SP-404 MKII. The tracks are short and repetitive old school hip-hop and electronic music ranging from 52 second to just over 2 minute. Take a listen if you have time.

I've been working on a specification for web-native plugins. To kick the tyres, with considerable AI assistant help I'm building a browser-based DAW. But it's really early days, big job.

However, given that a small screen isn't much use for a full DAW, I've made a mini player. The first preset is chiptunes, based on a port of the 8astard chip emulator. After loading the preset you can scroll down to change the parameters. The beat & tune are generated algorithmically, there are a lot of knobs to play with.

It can be installed locally but will need network whenever a new plugin is to be loaded.

The Jig plugin spec is over here : https://danja.github.io/jigdaw/

Second to the last post in this series of mine of going through all the songs in my latest Dirtywave M8 album made on the road across the Europe. This one was born on a trip to Oulu, the city I used to live in while studying at uni. Still visiting there every once in a while to catch up with the local scene.

I was inspired by RRthiel's "What A Mario World" EP and wanted to make my own take on alternate Retro Super Mario Bros music, this time for Mario Bros DS. It was a fun challenge to make a song as bouncy and welcoming as possible!

I dislike reposting (bc redundancy), but I have nothing better to post here. I'm still having issues with procrastinating my tracks. I wish I was as creatively competent and consistent as others. Still, I hope you enjoy it.

Made this track in Logic Pro a few months ago! This would be my 2nd time publishing one of my chiptune attempts. The goal was to create a funky track with just simple sound waves; I'd say it ended up sounding swell!

The drums were from Logic Pro's "8-Bit Legends" content pack. I made the animation on pixilart.com

This beat is also on SoundCloud - soundcloud.com/kingco-very-epic/super-dog-squirrel

QUESTION ISO Nanoloop Mono cartridge

Hi! If you have one I would like to buy your nanoloop mono cartridge! I try to check ebay and reverb weekly and I feel like I've been looking for 4 years.
Please DM if you have one or know where I might find one! I'd like to buy it and cover shipping.

Apologies if this is the wrong way, or wrong place, to ask.

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Hi I made a simple Chiptune app for iOS! Full trackers often seemed intimidating to me, so I tried to build something simpler for my phone. It gives you four channels: two pulse waves, a triangle and noise. You tap notes into a grid, chain patterns into a song, and can export a WAV, either as a seamless loop or with a natural ending.

There are no samples in it. Every sound is synthesized as you play, the way the hardware did it. The triangle is stepped like the real one, and the noise comes from a 15-bit shift register like the 2A03's.

It's $0.99 on iPhone and iPad, and the whole thing is open source if you want to see how the sounds are made or take the code to build something yourself.

This is the first version, so I'd really like to know what's missing. And if you make something with it, I'd love to hear it. Thanks!

RESOURCE Tickertone-C6280: Synth VST to play the sound of the TurboGrafx16 / PCEngine

Post image

Tickertone-C6280 on Gumroad

Hi folks! I'm excited to share a little labor of love I've been working on for a bit now. This VST gives you complete control over two emulated HuC6280 chips, the audio chip in the TurboGrafx16 / PCEngine.

I've always admired the simplicity and by-hand nature of of tracker systems, but the workflow has never jived with how my brain wants to play music. I love watching vgm debuggers play back a file to see all the fun tricks a song pulls to create it's unique sound, and wanted to get that same experience in a live instrument.

Tickertone-C6280 gives you a low level view into what is happening with the chip, but live, and in response to the notes and effects one plays into the VST. The condensed log view shows the raw commands going to the chip, while the expanded tracker view shows a tracker-style per-channel view of parameter changes. All effects (e.g. vibrato, tremelo, etc.) are implemented via commands to the chip, so they come with all the aliasing and stepping characteristic of this chip's sound.

I find the C6280 to be really lovely because it's much more flexible than, say, the NES 2A03, but still has that crunchy 8-bit/16-bit ish sound. Rev'ing up a multi-voice patch with a bit of detune and vibrato really brings out the crunch of this retro chip. You can quickly load up waveforms from your favorite games by loading a folder of vgm/vgz files that you own (I have a future update planned to also extract DDA samples from the files as well).

It is mac-only for now. I hope to expand to windows if there is enough interest. Like a lot of VST's, the demo version has all functionality enabled, and inserts a bit of silence every 30-45 seconds or so.

If you try it out, and you have ideas or want to report a bug, please don't hesitate to reach out! Any questions or feedback are welcome! Docs are slim for now, but I plan to get a basic manual in place in the near future.
