"Adding more Blast Processing to your Sega Genesis..."

Mega Drive!

SegaCD had a different banger for each region & model & they are all 🔥 This track hit me with the same awe & wonder feels those bios jams do 💫

Check out Bold Resonation if you really want to hear me be FearofDark.(sort of)

Thanks! I've been told that my stuff have this sense of warmth that's welcoming.

This is not a tracker program, this is a MML compiler. MML is different from trackers in that everything is typed in as text vs. using a visual representation of each channel's commands and note data. I appreciate the kind words, though! If you download the source code down below, you can see how everything was laid out.

@@muscises1858 ohhhh i see, still rlly cool tho!:)

Although I don't listen to a lot of FoD's music, I can't understate how much "The Coffee Zone" influenced my approach to doing chiptune music so thanks for the kind words!!!

A byproduct of 1980-1990 era which jazz fusion & city pop hit the mainstream Japan (the country which PC-98 had prominence)

No need to be an expert, you just speak your mind on how it feels. It's art, after all.

@@muscises1858 Thank you, that’s important to be reminded of!

Glad, you enjoyed it.

Thanks!

Into the "sounds like Streets of Rage jar", lol. Thanks, funny enough Streets of Rage was one of the earliest influences for me to do music. I always thought Dance music was much more fun to write vs. Traditional music because of layering the parts over each other and the quick switch-ups you can do. You know what, because I keep getting this comment a lot I'm going to compile a playlist of my compositions that deserve the "sounds like Streets of Rage" comment.

​@@muscises1858 Dang, I hate to be that guy then haha. I was going to say Yuzo Koshiro, but I couldn't think of his name at the time. I think 90's edm music plays to the Mega Drive's strengths, songs like Stereo Protect on pulse man are a perfect example of it.

I don't think it sounds too much like SOR2. Way too ambient and chill

I'm happy it moved you that way.

Writing macros is not difficult if you look at them as like automation events on DAWs, but for registers. There are a few example files utilizing the feature.

If only I had a dollar every time someone says this... lol

You can find me in the mmlgui discord server linked in the github repository: github.com/superctr/mmlgui Once you're there, you can ask questions on how it works, general support, or even learn about the world of MML. I will preface that this kind of stuff is much more diligent than using a music tracker, so it'll take some time to get proficient at it. Other than that, the community is excited to see you there!

The Drums were going through the DAC, and the reason why they sound so good is because the sound driver does a good job handling DMAs between the two CPUs. When it comes to how the channels are laid out in the test program, it's very tricky since some channels will phase in and out of the lower slots in the video. If you want to learn more about the technical side of the sound driver, here's the link: github.com/superctr/MDSDRV/tree/master/doc

@@muscises1858 I can't really do anything with those files as I don't own a PC but is this a full genesis emulator with 68000 and Z80?

Yes, Blastem is a (very-accurate) Genesis emulator. There's also nukeyt's emulator for the Genesis, github.com/nukeykt/Nuked-MD, but it requires a more processing power to even work.

Currently, I don't have any plans to upload my stuff to Spotify(mainly out of principle) but I'll definitely compile my recent works on my BandCamp sometime during the summer this year. Thanks for the compliment as well! 😄

So, this is emulated through Blastem which is the most accurate Sega Genesis emulator. However, this can be played through the physical chips 100%. I have some hardware recorded on me, if you're interested.

The neat part is depending on which parts are playing, the registers will reflect it accordingly. A good example is seeing when I switch from full FM to FM + PCM.
