any artist here who make 8 bit music (=nintendo old school)? i'm really getting into the 8bit scene right now. i'm working on serveral tunes ATM, already written the lyrics and melodies (only problem i need a mic).
if you want to get started get the triforce vst synth, which is an 8bit sound emulator
feel free to post your 8 bit trax here
just found a wicked 8 bit "drill & chip" tune on 8bitpeoples.com:
Lo-Bat - Twinkle

put the dll file into c:\program files\steinberg\vstplugins
press F11 in cubase to insert the triforce plugin
then add a midi track, set the output to triforce

no kidding, do you do anything other than 8 bit? :P
wouldn't it be more interesting to like, actually make 8-bit music with 8-bit equipment rather than using plugins for modern applications? it kind of seems like cheating.

I concur... I know people who make music with nanoloop and LSDj.
I used to make 8 bit music, but I just sampled my gameboy and re-arranged the sounds in fruityloops.
I sometimes use nanoloop in a gameboy emulator, but I don't make 8 bit music anymore.
Thanks for that link AlbertoBalsalm. I d/led everything those guys had to offer. Did you check out the other synths and effects? Any good?

nope.
i really want a gameboy and LSDJ. unfortunatly they won't produced any more cartridges until next year. i'm gonna try to get it on ebay. until then, i can use the LSDJ ROM image file (costs 36$), load it into a gameboy emulator. just tried it for the first time today. i actually just found out about the existence of LSDJ today, it's pretty wicked!

You can just d/l the demo rom, and then save the states in a good quality emulator like REW.
Did you know, that with nester (an emulator for the nintendo, gameboy and gameboy color) you can isolate the different wavform generators? So if you want to sample the melody in games like zelda or mario 3, you can remove the bassline and beat, or leave only the bassline or beat so that you get a really clean sample.

Nanoloop is good too. Less for writing techno music, more for audio exploration of the sound technologies.

Im guessing most people go here already, but Micromusic.net has some excellent free software and loads of tracks.
I use samples for the beats, keeping the decay really short to make them snappy, low bit rates produce alot of unwanted low frequency which can lead to a muddy mix, plenty of eq and compression helps. This probably also sounds like cheating to the hardcore lsdj users.
