People who are not able to make music always talk about that they could be great if they just had the most expensive equipment that the stars own, I have always said that if you give someone with true creativity two sticks they will still make music, this video shows me yet again that creativity knows no boundaries, that people find a way to make music regardless of the obstacles.
This is it!!! Amazing...I can't imagined you can do this to a gameboy?! Our first conversation you are planning to do it...now you made it...terrific! Also, you mentioned it was your first time to do a voice over...not bad actually! Your voice is great, nice for voice overs...It is like I am listening in TV narration...hahaha! I am telling the truth! Hehehe! Wow the sound was great...hehe...good work! New supporter here!
hey, this is so cool! it’s a little hard to comprehend the giant amount of effort that must have went into this haha. you’re really talented! hope you’re doing well dude :)
This is great. I just subbed and would love to see you turn More things into a synthesizer. I'm gonna feature you on my New segment Be great. Expect your video on November 16th.
This is a great video. Speaking voice is great, so no worries there. Love the walkthrough. Have you used midi into lsdj? I have only used mGB with midi but when lsdj first came out it came with a midi cable and I am always curious ppls thoughts on midi. the arduinoboy pro is great from catskull.
the music in the video was manually composed, which I find myself leaning more towards doing after the build, though the keyboard is fun for "riffing" on.
It's not as sensitive as Id hope. A fun way to do it nonetheless. I have a link in the description to something called an Arduinoboy. This allows connection to a midi controller which plays with a much better response.
Can this work with any Gameboy, and can you save the data created in lsdj to your computer, or is it like a regular game that only saves to cartridge? I believe you mentioned that it's able to run on an emulator, that would make it easier right?
My flash cartridge has a usb out and I can transfer files onto my computer for safekeeping. & yes, you can also use LSDJ on an emulator, though many like myself really enjoy the idea of harnessing the actual sound of a gameboy from our fingertips haha. Of course if someone just wants to jam and write with LSDJ and use an emulator I think that's a fantastic idea too
Adding the backlight really helps for seeing what's happening on the screen and is absolutely essential if you plan on using the gameboy on stage because you won't see a thing with the regular screen. The stereo mod bypasses the crummy built in amp and you'll get a much clearer signal to record and play with. Lastly the keyboard mod is mostly for fun!
Hahaha there were a few points while watching over this video where I went "oh wow there are better ways I could've done that" but then again I'm a musician not an electrician. I'm glad I was able to document my first time trying anything like this 😁
