Inspired by classic videogame soundtracks and electronic music from the 70s and 80s, 8 Bit Weapon delivers a sound that is as unique as it is original. Clever melodies, nostalgic atmosphere, and energetic beats create a decidedly modern sound while maintaining a fun, lo-tech aesthetic. You’re probably aware of this, because you own a copy of our 8 Bit Weapon loop library.Hey everybody, fire up your Nintendo Game Boys, Atari 2600s and Commodore 64s, because 8 Bit Weapon has a chiptune remix contest for you! Those of you in the know might recognize the offered track from 8 Bit Weapon, our recently released loop library again, a hint. What can you do with it? 8 Bit Weapon wants to know. Along with the usual plethora of goodies provided to the winner, 8 Bit Weapon is providing a Commodore 64 music creation work station for your own chiptune arsenal!
8bw Adds:
If you dont have any software or even any gear to make the remix, NO PROBLEM! Sony has provided a FREE copy of ACID for PC computers on the remix site for you to use. Mac users can download the loop zip file and use the loops to make a remix as well in programs like Garage band, etc. However Mac users wont be able to use the acid project file.
There are NO restrictions on how the remix is made! You can use all chip related devices, modern softsynths, or anything else that tickles your fancy. Also, you do not have to use ACID software to enter! You can make your remix any way you like. :)
The Grand Prize winner will receive: A Commodore 64, 1541 drive, cables, a Prophet 64 Cart, ACID Pro software, Five Standard Collection Libraries, as well as a copy of our “Electric High EP” & an 8bw T-shirt!
My favorite little sequencer has a new update, perhaps inspired by its redheaded stepchild Littlegptracker. Details:
2009-07-14: v3.9.a
* bugfix: instr copy/paste works again (broke in 3.9.3)
* make it possible to change pitch of pu1/2 sounds without
retrigging, by omitting instrument number.e.g.
C-3 I03
G-3 I–
More crazy developments from the Plogue Blogue today. Not only does it look like plgDavid’s hard work will yield the Mother of All Chip VSTs, but also a new file format, too?!?! Hmmm. Fight the No News Friday Blues and check out the details on VGMX over here.
