Plugins, plugins, plugins!!

As a beginner on the topic of digital music creation, I found out what I have to do, to make 8 bit sounds.

The plugins are the answer.

I started to use the FL studio, but If you have another software like Renoise, Cubase or other, you can use it too!

How it works? It´s pretty simple, first you have to download the file, then you have to copy the file ".dll" into the folder "vst" in the folders of the program of your music software.

Specifically with FL studio, you have to make some other things. Go to menu "Channels" and select the option "add one", select "more" and at the bottom of the window click on "refresh".

To make 8 bit music you can use a lot of plugins, I found these:

Magical 8 bit Plug (no image)

Tri force plugin (from TWEAKBENCH):

The Peach (from Nintendo Mario BRos.) from TWEAKBENCH too.

The Toad plugin: (In Tweakbench you can find a Wide Variety of Plugins and effects)

The Great Basic 64:

The awesome YMVST:

I will share my tracks as soon as I can

PD: Even if you want diferent kind of sound, or don't like the 8bit, every plugin works exactly as the 8 bit does, just remember the VST folder.

By the way, i found this funny picture!!

A Great 8 bit end!
