modey Posted March 18, 2016 Share Posted March 18, 2016 Oh, it's just that whenever I tell some people about chiptunes they think it's all about just making bleepy videogame music that is at happy hardcore tempo with arpeggios all over the place.. there's so much more to the chip scene than that! And yeah, it'd be great to see some new retro style consoles with decent, real sound chips that aren't just emulations. There are some interesting chiptune related bits of hardware around though, like this: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1304489933/opa-multitimbral-fm-synthesizer-shield-for-arduino So I think I can see the scene shifting more towards cool custom sound chips, or using cheap stock chips to make interesting sounds.. anyway I'm going off topic a little here. Perhaps we should have a general ekt chiptunes thread..? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brisbot Posted March 21, 2016 Author Share Posted March 21, 2016 A chiptune thread sounds like a solid idea, but at the moment I have an ulterior motive asking specifically for SNES soundtracks. I'll make one soonish, or you can make one, but try to wait a few days/ a week ^^Also, the shield has some solid bass, damn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
