Re-live the 1990s game nostalgia by composing and listening to chiptunes that are very similar to the 8-bit video game tracks . #Create chiptune #Chiptune composer #Audio synthesizer #Chiptune #Synthesizer #Compose
Irrespective of whether you are searching for a meaningful ringtone or you are the kind of person who gets goosebumps at the sight of a Game Boy or NES, there is a relatively good chance that you might be interested in chiptunes. Also dubbed chip music, chiptunes refer to a form of electronic music produced using the sound cards of old video games consoles.
BeepComp Portable is a piece of software that enables you to create your own chip music via a couple of text commands and without having to scoop pawn shops or the Internet for an old game console.
After a quick setup, you come face to face with an old-fashioned, yet suitable and appropriate interface that can remind some users of the early days of arcade games. The interface integrates several useful functions, such as the progress bar, gain meter and a control panel that enables you to load, play or export the tracks you create.
Nevertheless, the GUI is quite minimalistic and crowded especially since the editor area is spread on almost the entire window. Moreover, the interface does not include additional themes, an option that would be nice to have, especially since not everyone is a big fan of the retro style.
The utility acts as a synthesizer and hence, it allows you to create your own chiptunes or edit the ones that you have downloaded from various sources. Even though you need to have minimal MML knowledge to produce new tracks, the app comes with ample documentation that can help you in this area.
Nevertheless, if you are merely curious about the 8-bit music sound and feel, then you will be glad to learn that the app includes several samples that you can listen and perhaps edit them, if you enjoy the genre.
In the eventuality that arcade games played a big role in your teen years or you are just looking for a special and unique sound for your projects, then BeepComp Portable might be the tool to help you achieve your goal.
