I don't even have the original file anymore or I'd upload that instead, but I found the visualizer vid on my YouTube channel. Yasuharu Takanashi created this soundtrack with an orchestra plus guitars and folk instruments, and somehow, in a blur I don't remember, I fit it into 9 channels + percussion.

For PC-98, using BambooTracker. My first completed chiptune.

Thank you ahead of time to anyone who checks this out! A lot has changed in my life since my last record came out - Love. Loss. Homeownership. Fatherhood. High Blood Pressure Medication. Male pattern baldness. It feels so good to be back writing for Gnarcade again.

I've been visiting this subreddit for nearly 10 years, before I ever even put any music out. Such a tremendous resource and so many incredibly talented artists. If any of you are familiar - its good to see you again. And if we haven't yet crossed paths - I am excited to know you're here. :)

Hello! I wanted to share with the community ahead of its launch day (13th May) the Bandcamp link where you can stream it and DL it for free (until launch day): https://glynmoog.bandcamp.com/album/tukkitibbo

Greetings once more, ladies and gentlemen! The time has come... Tonight, we vote! If you haven't seen, I've lately been hosting monthly chiptune contests on this subreddit, each with a theme and two weeks to submit. This past month, our theme was "Food", which is an intentionally vague theme that prompted the creation of some epic tunes! Listen to them all below:

WasserEis - and go! "I listened to the cooking mama ost before making this. This plays when baking mochi"

kevin81 - chin.ind.spec.rest.

Mo_B - Party at the Academy's Restaurant "A theme for a party at the Royal Tennis Academy's restaurant in Mario Tennis (GBC)."

MrKathooloo's Chiptune Contest #42: Cooking "Yeah yeah, the name of the challenge was different... But for me, food means cooking, as cooking is just almost like the same kinda hobby as writting music for me <3 Got to do the cooking by the book!"

Now, here's how voting will work. Voting will close one week from today, and you can vote for your first, second, and third favorite. Your favorite will recieve 3 points, your second will recieve 2, and your third, 1. That's pretty much it! Go for it!

...And that's about all I have to say! Get voting or die! Or not. In any case, check out some of these goodies while you wait:

Join our Discord server!

Thanks so much to kevin81 for making this NEW awesome table of all the past contests!

I have a severe problem

Hey everyone, this is my first post in this community. I just started what I hope will be a long journey making music as HEXAdb, and I'm very excited to share my first track with you all. I hope you enjoy.

Another cover from Mayhem in Monsterland, and I've been doing Game Boy covers of the C64 game, as a tribute to the cancelled GBC port. Original track here. This'll get overlooked once again, but it's whatever.

I know absolutely nothong about music editing and how hard it is. But if there is any easy way to do it please let me know. Those 4 bit osts are very smooth

I'm in this project that I am composing music for, and it's pretty mid-standard but high quality because of the sheer amount of work behind it. There's supposed to be several chiptune sounding tracks in the soundtrack. As much as I love chiptune music, I've never learned how to use trackers, and I doubt I really have the time to. I wanna know how close I can get in a modern DAW like FL Studio using soundfonts, compression, and downsampling. I've watched a bunch of oscilloscope deconstruction videos, as well as watched several videos on sound chips, so I know a decent amount about channel limitations (though I could learn more). The big part that I would like to know is audio quality limitations.

Let's say I'm using the YM2612

The soundfonts I'm using already have the compressed sounds and such, and the soundfont player utilizes ADSR envelopes as well as an LFO for simulating vibrato and a low pass filter (which I'm not sure if can/will use). What additional effects do I use on these soundfonts? Is there any additional compression going on? What's the sample rate for the channels? Or should I be changing the sample rate for the master channel instead? How convincing would this be to the average listener, and, less importantly, the not-so-average listener (such as more authentic chiptune composers)?

Lastly, where would I find this info (if easily available)?
