In my quest for 'interesting' sounds I've just ordered a Nanoloop cart (the older 1.3 version) to do some sequencing and general bleepy stuff on my old gameboys (original grey and an advance).
Anyone any experience (good or bad) with Nanoloop?
Yeah i had searious intensions of buying 2.0 after trying the demo. Its pretty easy to use, but it takes much time to craft a song. It will give you all familiar gameboy Sounds, so thats cool. If you love that and willing to spend 70 Euro's (even more for shipping) than its a good buy!
I've bought the Nanoloop1.3 for the Gameboy a while a go... I do some chiptunes while I'm on my bustravel to work. Kinda funny, "mobile-generation"-kids starrin at u (haha a gameboy, how outdated, do you play tetris?) Bleepy funky beats in a minute - thats pretty cool But the "LSDJ (little sound dj" is more flexible and more used by chiptune musicians because its Trackerbased (like FastTracker, ModPlug etc) and it uses samples (4bit) but you can't by the cartridge on the net, only the software(ROM) is available for about 70€ and you need an extra Flashcard (+ ~50€) ... thats expensive ... http://littlesounddj.com/lsd/
The cool thing is both (LSDJ and Nanoloop1.3) work on the GameboyAdvance.
great Gameboy artists are BubblyFish, Lo-Bat, 8cylinder, BitShifter, NullSleep, M-.-n ....
what does trackerbased mean? I have heard it come up several times but I don't what it is?
Obviously a man not old enough to remember the sheer ghastly horror of Octamed on the Amiga. I look back with fondness to those crazy days programming in hexadecimal
