The little modular synthesizer/tracker sequencer for various handhelds has a nice update.
Warmplace provides the details:
No iPhone version yet. But it will be available in the next few days (after Apple approval).
New in this version:
* new module: Vibrato;
* added sinusoidal waveform to the “generator”;
* added new effects 11 and 12 – fineslide up/down;
* added new effect 20 – set the probability (0…8000) of a note being triggered; this effect is for unpredictable rhythms;
* added new effect 21 – same as 20 but with random velocity;
* added new example track: endless_song (based on new effect 20);
* new functions in the “sampler”: resample; volume fade; waveform drawing (paint mode);
* improved “transpose” function in the pattern editor;
* pattern follow mode (only for single pattern playing);
* sound engine optimization.

This extensively modeled all-purpose chip emulation system is coming out very soon. To celebrate this, there is a new EP made entirely with the plugin, featuring contributions from the Plogue beta team.
Details:
These tracks were made by the chipsounds beta team and really show the
variety of styles and sounds that can be achieved with the software.
The only guideline given was that the music’s chip content had to be made using chipsounds.
We are really lucky to be surrounded with such talented musicians as testers!
Thanks again to the entire chipsounds beta team!
We hope you like it

Tomorrow the 8 Bit Operators Beatles Tribute is out, and here is the video to my contribution for it. It was made by Erik Nilsson, who recently made a mechnical orchestra. He animated this video on a Commodore 64 BBS (popular before the Internet), where the text gets written on the screen slowly enough for you to work with different animation techniques. Petscii and Skweee, how sweet life can beee. And thanks for the expert help, Rosaroos.
