So for a while now, i’ve been in #pdf_lessons on esper.net, and have given some lessons. Megabass on LSDJ, for instance. This weekend, and following week, i am scheduling lesons every night. Every night, at a time posted in the channel (all times EST, because that’s my time zone), there will be a lesson, on the topic posted in the channel, run by one of the operators of the channel.
Topics:
- LGPT – Rhinostrich/XC3N
- LSDJ – PDF Format + others
- Famitracker – Tristendo
- Goattracker – Zabutom
- Milkytracker – Strobe
- Mssiah/P64 – PDF Format + Firebrand Boy
- Arduinoby – PDF Format + Trash80
- Other trackers – Other people
- Music theory – Rhinostrich, PDF Format, Strobe if he feels like it
and general other information on other things by other people who know about them. I will post a schedule as it is confirmed by the teachers of the lessons. But if you want to learn any tracker, or trick, or skill, come into the channel, and there will be a guided lesson, followed by general Q/A afterwards. Stay tuned, and tell your friends.

By Peter Swimm, on February 27th, 2009  1.1b_37 is in the ghetto section for GP2X/PSP/W32/DEB.
Here’s the list of changes:
- Allowed multiple selection for note and instrument editing in Phrase Screen
- Fixed synchronization problem between the main thread and the player thread. This fixes the problem that tracks could go out of sync when doing rendering at full speed (not using RT). It might also generally improve the stability for heavy pounders
- Rendered files are now located in the project folder.
- Fixed tempo to be more precise: before, tempo vs. sample count transformation was rounded to integers. This meant that exporting a track at 80 BPM would end up to something close to it but not exactly it, which could be a hassle if trying to use renderings in DAWS. Now it’s totally accurate. It might be that the track’s feel is slightly different, so let me know if there’s something in concert for your ears
- Updated the note map to be always show (for consistency). Mute track are now also shown by having both the octave & instrument number shown as “–“
- Cached some file attributes to make samplelib browsing faster on PSP.
- Fixed audio volume in preview so that it doesn’t destroy your ear. Now it’s played at half volume which correspond to the default 128 volume of instruments

“I just wrote an article for London based newspaper The Cut (available free at plenty of places in and around London) about chipmusic (specifically the current UK scene – this issue is a special UK/London one). You can see it at The Cut site here, and also you can download the whole paper in .pdf here (the article actually looks quite nice), although I’ve also posted here in full. The point of the article was to redress the balance of fucking dreadful chipmusic media coverage, and I think I’ve at least done that…”
Congrats! You can read the text of the article on 8BC.
