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 to create a different kind of sound, or don't like the 8bit at all, 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!

Make some beats!

Well, I'm here ones again and guess what? I spent all weekend including monday with my new friends, making music.
These guys have their own music studio so the first thing that came to my mind was to start making my own beats.
I have to downloading some music programs, libraries, samples and more. And also I thought that maybe if I show here some links to download music and stuff like that, I will get someday a few comments here, ha ha.
Recently I discovered my love for the chiptunes music, 8 bit music, lo-fi music, etc. In other words, same terrific music. Well the fact is, this kind of music will be my final goal, that means that I will end it up making some chiptunes for everybody but meanwhile I have to learn many, many, many things about electronic music.
Part of these tools to improve my abilities, are the software and I have begun with the FL Studio and Reason, but everybody knows that if you want to do something good, you have to take all the possibilities and options that you can, as well explore every single thing that pops up.

These are some software to use to make some 8 bit noise: the Little sound Dj and the Nanoloop, the Little sound Dj  and can be download directly from its home page and other sites of the web, unfortunately, the Nanoloop can only be download from a torrent track, but all you have to do is use a client for torrents files and download it for Demonoid.

Here there are some libraries:Magical 8bit plug and Chip32.

Maybe next week I will share my music here but, by now on you can download some tracks here , this compilation it's a zip file from beatport and the link is from DDJ blog; track 02 a remix of kam denny and paul zala it's my favorite.

And Finally more music by Binarpilot one of my favorites djs.


Enjoy!
