ah, the glories of 8-bit

[Dr. Sherman Sticks M.D.]

i need a cart not a ROM. the ROM is like $2 anyway. if i wanted 8 bit sounds using my computer i could just use a tracker software or something. as many Gameboys i have lying around it seems like a shame not to be using LSDJ or Nanoloop.

i just found some carts for like 40 bucks. i dunno if thats high or low? but seems pretty dece considering some other websites i found wanted like 70-80+. these ones can hold more than 1 rom at a time, and are flashable via USB.

yeah that's how much i thought they were. about $40 or something. i think i saw some from some placed based in the UK or something for that price plus shipping. but then you you gotta get the cords to flash the ROM & all that. i just figured one day i cop one on ebay or on one of those LSDJ or 8-bit forums. or get one from somebody i know. just never got around to it.

Anamanaguchi is my jamssss! I love this band, my bands have played with them on occasion, they're great dudes. Peter is also hilarious. He does stand up on anamanaguchi's youtube channel. shit's hilarious.

But i have both Nanoloop and LSDJ and synthcart for atari and C64!

i went through a serious chiptune phase like a year ago....

LSDJ has this massive learning curve, but as a program it's got waaaaaaaaaaay more features than nanoloop, which can also do really cool things. The only thing's i've ever actually finished were on nanoloop cuz it's way easier to use.

I got my nanoloop for 50$, and my LSDJ for like 80... it's expensive, but totally worth it. i wish i had more time to fuck around with my LSDJ.

NERDtracker is my favourite tracker....

http://www.8bitpeoples.com puts out all of the more well known chiptune acts records, you can download a ton of it for free. I recommend Anamanaguchi, Virt, Xinon, and whatever Sabrepulse you can find. Starscream also kills it. Good things man. I love chip music.
