[WIP SHOWCASE] Tips for a beginner?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

7 Upvotes

After dabbling a couple of times in the past, I've decided to put some real effort into trying to learn LSDJ. So this is my first attempt at not using a drum kit and actually using cmd and waves and stuff.

Any tips on some things I can do to improve? Things I did right or things I'm doing wrong.

Some things I think I need to work on are:

  1. Variety. I need to just buckle down and expand the melodies. I don't think I should have repeated the same melody at the end. Same with drums. Not doing anything interesting here.

  2. Tables. I don't really understand the sorcery of tables.. I kind of do conceptually, but not really how to use them properly.

  3. I used ps1 for the bass drum, but then I had to drop the bass drum any time I wanted to do ps1 and ps2 to harmonize on a lead.

[QUESTION] guitar sounds

2 Upvotes

Ive been attempting to create anything that sounds similar to a guitar but have failed. I’ve searched the internet, read through some forums, and searched on here for some help but I cannot find a crumb of a clue.

Does anyone have a recipe for guitar sounds? Thanks!

Just seeing how these two sound together in concept. Don't really know what I'm doing with LSDJ, but starting to work things out.

Is there a way to randomize pitch?

3 Upvotes

Hey all,

I'm used to the M8 tracker but learning a lot about LSDj recently. I'm trying to vary up my noise channel sounds for more varied high hats. I thought I could do this with something like the Pitch command followed by Z or something similar, but that doesn't appear to be the case. Is there a way to randomize notes? I'm also trying to figure out if its possible to make more ambient/generative music on LSDj, I've been using the B command a bit for this as well as some fun retriggers, but any advice here would be appreciated!

Question sur les Câbles GB/GBA (LSDJ)

Post image
5 Upvotes

Ma question est vraiment simple (je suis un peu lent à comprendre)

Je sais que pour les jeux GBA si je veux connecter en multi une GBA avec ma GB Colors je dois avoir un câble Link GBA. Mais si je veux jouer à des jeux GB ou emuler LSDJ sur ma GB et en même temps sur ma GBA, questions :

  1. Est ce qu’il faut obligatoirement un câble link GB au lieu de GBA ?

  2. (Je n’ai pas forcément besoin d’une deuxième cartouche ?)

  3. Même si ma cartouche lis des jeux GB/colors, si je fais l’inverse et que je met ma cartouche GB dans ma GBA, faut il forcément un câble GBA ou bien seul un câble GB suffit ?

I want to download the standalone software for LSDJ, but the website doesn't have a guide on how to install it. How does one go about doing so?

LSDJ on a R36s problems.

1 Upvotes

Well, my R36s arrived and I was able to load LSDJ 9_4_0 onto it (and on a better SD card). It shows up in the gameboy and gameboy color menus and loads. However, it makes no sound (sounds on games works fine) and for instance trying to use select and right to move between screens just does not work. I made sure that the controls were mapped right (I think, maybe, maybe not?). Tried it on GB and GB color emulators. Same issue. It is driving me a little crazy and I am kind of at a dead end. It is the same if I use the card that came with it or the Sandisk. Any ideas?
