Gameboy to MIDI converter - LSDJMC^2 from Low-Gain Audio
The LSDJMC^2 finally arrived from Low-Gain Audio. This little box of tricks allows you to sync your Gameboy (Classic DMG, Lite or Color) to your MIDI rig. It has MIDI In, Out and a Thru. It follows the FirestARTer protocols as used in Littlesound DJ, so this means you can do MIDI Sync, or simply use the Gameboy as a MIDI sound module. SWEET!
I've not had chance to play with this one yet, but here's a sexy pic of it among it's siblings. I will be testing the unit with MIDI sync from Cubase SX and VST5/32, as well as sound module mode. I also plan to test it in a live rig using the Yamaha RM1X as a MIDI sync source, then passing through to the Access Virus Classic for timecode sync for arpeggiators, synced effects etc. This should prove to be a formidable live rig. Stay tuned for updates and video clips of the LSDJMC^2 in action.
