DMGo! says Hello!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\n

A portable, futuristic, complex drum machine<\/strong> designed to run in one of the most beloved Japanese handheld consoles from the late 80s (The Gameboy<\/strong>!). Made to create rhythms, textures, and beautiful 4-bit<\/strong> weird pattern and noises.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

The new music program for the good ol\u2019 gameboy<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

DMGo!<\/strong> features 4 channels<\/strong>, each with a 16-step sequencer<\/strong>, along with a dedicated FX section, ADSR control, filtering options, generative modes, per-step tuning, and pattern chaining with real-time FX <\/strong>(Mangling MODE!<\/strong>). DMGo!<\/strong> can run from its internal clock or be synchronized with other Game Boys via Cable LINK IN\/OUT<\/strong>, or with other devices using PULSE OUT sync<\/strong> perfect for Pocket Operators, Volcas, Pikocore, and more.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Basic controls<\/strong><\/h1>\n\n\n\n

To navigate through the different pages of the program, press A<\/strong> to access to the top menu, which will take you to the 4 CHANNEL<\/strong> pages, the PATTERNS <\/strong>page, the SAVE <\/strong>and Playing area, and the Setup menu. Use the D-pad<\/strong> to navigate between the different pages, and press A<\/strong> again to confirm. Within each page, use the D-pad<\/strong> to move the cursor between the different areas, and press B<\/strong>+ D-pad<\/strong> to add values or change options. SELECT <\/strong>has different functions depending on the page, in the channel pages, will display a menu to select patterns (PICK A PAT)<\/strong> while on the PATTERN <\/strong>page will activate the MANGLING FX<\/strong>. The button START <\/strong>is always used to play the music from the beginning or to stop the playback.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4 Channels<\/h1>\n\n\n\n
\n
\n

The Game Boy has a 4-bit audio engine<\/strong> consisting of 2 pulse <\/strong>channels (square waves sort of), 1 waveform <\/strong>channel, and finally, 1 noise <\/strong>channel. DMGo!<\/strong> has a dedicated page for each channel, with a 16-step sequencer<\/strong> for each channel for programming patterns, along with 16 slots <\/strong>for storing your patterns. Each channel has the same controls for shaping your sound and patterns.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

On the Channel <\/strong>page, you can select the pattern you want to work with and control the volume, Solo <\/strong>and Mute <\/strong>functions, and signal panning<\/strong>. You can also tweak the filter <\/strong>and resonance<\/strong>, apply FX<\/strong> and control the ADSR<\/strong>, with two options: Full Step<\/strong> and Checked Step<\/strong>. The AUTO <\/strong>(automatic Controls) can be driven by random <\/strong>values or LFO<\/strong>s, allowing you to change the filter position (F<\/strong>), ADSR values(A<\/strong>), tuning (T<\/strong>) and retriggering (R<\/strong>) on the fly.<\/p>...
