Hey pxtone fans! I'm putting together a discord server for both new and experienced pxtone users to share music, get help, and discuss whatever. From what I understand, the pxtone scene is pretty small (in the west, at least) and scattered all over the place. A lot of users probably don't even...

I'll let you know if anything develops. I've been thinking about posting in some other places to gauge interest but I'm not sure where the best place to do that would be. I'll probably put something on chipmusic.org, and maybe make a post on the main music board here, but if you've got any...

This is really cool stuff. I love the atmosphere you create with all the delay (on the first two tunes especially), it feels very full. Cool drum sounds too, are those TetraPulse drums? I'm pretty familiar with the Pepofont drums and I don't think I recognize these. That detuning (I think?) at...

I checked out a bunch of your stuff but this one is especially cool. Nice chords. Some of the detuning is pretty extreme, though, like on the edge of uncomfortable; maybe that was your intention. Which instrument pack? This is pretty cool too, although everything seems pretty loud. Some more...

5 new short tunes, each written in about an hour. Forgive me for not checking out the last couple of months of posts here; I should really be more active on this thread since I work with pxtone so much. I'll try to find time to listen to some of these and comment later.

Don't think I've heard any of your Pxtone work before; this is really cool stuff.

Neat effects. I never get tired of Cave Story covers. Thanks a lot! Nice to hear from you. Very nice melody there.

I've just released another set that I've been working on for quite a while. Plenty more information about it on the page. As usual I'll upload .ptcops if anyone wants. https://jaxcheese.bandcamp.com/album/summer-in-solitude

Very nice - and nice original, too, I like the horns. Who are you in the video? In terms of criticism, the only thing I can really say is that the bass seems very quiet throughout, or at least up until around 1:20. Even if it's meant to be quiet, it's barely audible as of right now. Cool...

I guess "samples" was kind of vague - there's lots of instruments available in .ptvoice but also you can use any sounds in .wav or .ogg form as instruments in pxtone, and there are great sources for .wav instrument "samples" all over the internet. I can point you to a few resources that I use...

You have some neat ideas, but execution could use some work - which is to be expected from a first track. Your instruments all sound very similar, and they're mostly at similar volumes, which can create some uncomfortable dissonance even with chords that should sound normal. I don't know if you...

Well, it was nice talking to you, but I've got nothing more to say and it's probably not a great idea to carry on a conversation in a thread like this. See you around, though.

Funny - I was going to mention George and Jonathan when I was talking about Pxtone being basic but decided against it. I was literally *just* listening to G&J3. I've been on the Famitracker forums for a couple of weeks, everyone there has been pretty helpful. I also checked out the TIGSource...

Yeah, honestly, it doesn't seem like the best place for musical discussion, but I'm afraid if I went to some kind of general computer audio forum it would be all above my head. From what I can tell Pxtone is pretty basic compared to most similar programs, but it's doing the job for me for right...

I agree with you there. As much as I love Cave Story I've pretty much only ever been here for music stuff. Being so impressed with Cave Story's music, and getting the opportunity to use OrgMaker to make music just like that (I hoped) was what put me on the path to writing video game-styled music.
