nintendo vsts
yeah, the 8 bit thing is getting sort of old, but wuddevva. Gay Against You posted this in a bulletin on myspace:-
----------------------------------
we don't use any of these,
we didn't make any of them
they are available free at these links though:
http://www.ymck.net/english/download/index.html = YMCK magical 8 bit plugin
http://www.refx.net/?page=quadraSID = reFX's quadrasid
http://www.tweakbench.com/peach = tweakbench "peach" nes synth plugin
http://www.tweakbench.com/toad = tweakbench "toad" nes drums plugin
http://www.davidfarler.com/software/nesvst10.zip = nes vst synth
http://www.jackdark.net/SYNTENDO.ZIP = syntendo vst synth
----------------------------------
Syntendo is a big complicated synth with lots of knobs thats very fun for making noise, peach is quite nice off the peg cute nintendo synths, toad is a drum kit made out of typical nintendo sounds and mario sound effects
others are vaguely useful, and only small, so get them anyway
std joke
that wasnt very good
tell another
there's this vst in a vestry right
and it's lost in this vast vestibule the size of everest.
there's two fish in a tank and one says to the other, a mexican wanted tequila at 2.30.
best thread ever
what do you need to run
these
any sequencer i guess
i use ableton, and im sure cubase and logic are fine
Or
from having a quick search around, there seem to be a few small freeware 'host' applications available to run plugins (so.. I guess all they do is make pretty sounds using these plugins). Search for 'vst host' or summat.
Don't suppose anyone
can recommend a good plugin host app for OSX? Free/cheap/crackable if possible.. I fancy trying these out innit!
im playing it all through a cracked version of ableton
which i recommend very merrily, but i dont know where to get a crack for it for mac
Seems like that's
the one thing that's never been properly cracked.. how odd. I'm going to have to buy an old copy of the lite version, I think.
i only know stuff from my limited experience
but i REALLY like ableton as music making software.
as a vst host it does the job well enough i think - i dont have any real complaints.
so if you just want to host vsts, dont go out of your way to get ableton on my recommendation
i think
fruity loops accepts vsts if i rememeber correctly, havnt used it for a long, long time though. It was easily downloadable/crackable a few years back and is piss easy to use.
oops that was for windows^
expect an osx version exists though
^ Yeah it does
But V7 had just been launched so it may not be cracked yet. Version 6 is still doing the rounds tho
if you just want to host vsts
and really want to hear these ones and have a giggle, im sure the demo of fruity will do fine, and thats just on www.fruityloops.com or something
i might nick some of these
i still heart 8 bit - old or not!
theyre pretty much exactly the sounds i want
at the moment, even though i dont want to do something explicitly "omg im doing computer game music lol"
i have a stand alone thing
that has pretty ace sounds on it
i can't remember what its called but i wil have a look when i get home
I'm quite excited about
having a go on these actually. I want to find something that would sound good in amongst a 'proper' band setup without resorting to all that bitcrushing/distortion stuff. Which often goes, er, horribly wrong for me.
i hate bitcrushing
it just makes everything sound the same
like
a cat trumping into a bin
although
reason's bitcrush thing (the, er, the digital setting on the Scream box I think?) is fun if you chain it into a load of other stuff.
i don't have reason
you doof
i wish
i could think of some smart thing to say about not having any reason like a smart guy or oscar wilde might say
everyone would be all check it, dude got burned
burn SAUCE
but I cants
some of these vsts have inbuilt bit crushing
and knobs and stuff
ha im so tech
"pretty tech" vs "pretty scene"
FIGHT
I <3 you alcxxk
:(
I dont think the drums one works on mac
lol
its really good too!!!!!
what Alex_b said!
