Hello again, and welcome to another edition of Intense Tech! This month, I’d like to highlight some of the changes that’ve been implemented since my version 7 article. Let’s dive on in!
 +
 +
'''The LSDJ Manual has been updated to version 8!'''
 +
 +
For those of us who like to RTFM, it’s nice to know that the official LSDJ manual has now been updated with all the new changes for version 8! So if you have specific questions about features or functionality, the answers can most likely be found in the manual, which is located on [https://www.littlesounddj.com/lsd/latest/documentation/ the LSDJ website in the documentation section].
 +
 +
'''New screen layout'''
 +
 +
The screen layout has been updated to reduce the amount of switching between screens. Instead of the old three-row layout, there are now only two rows. The main row which includes the Song, Chain, Phrase, Instrument, and Table screens, remains unchanged. The top row now includes, in order from left to right, Project, Groove, Synth, and Wave screens. Additionally, when navigating upwards from the main row, LSDJ remembers which screen you were on previously. This enables easy switching between the Phrase screen and the Synth screen, for instance. Some shortcuts exist for convenience: for example, navigating upwards from the Song screen always goes to the Project screen, and going upwards from a G command will always go to the Groove screen. Here’s a map of the new screen layout from the LSDJ manual:

 +
'''ADSR for Pulse and Noise Instruments'''
 +
 +
As mentioned in the previous interview with Johan Kotlinski, the Envelope settings for Pulse and Noise instruments is now replaced with ADSR for finer volume control. The ADSR has three stages, each with two digits: the first digit 0 through F controls volume, and the second digit 0 through 7 controls duration (0 holds at that volume indefinitely). An ADSR of 5100 is like the old Envelope of 51, volume starts at 5 and quickly decays to 0. An ADSR of 246732 would start at volume 2, rise to volume 6 somewhat quickly, decay to volume 3 more slowly, then quickly fade to 0. Using the ADSR in combination with commands such as RFx (retrigger with a decrease in volume) can act similarly to a tremolo command. E commands and the volume columns in tables remain unchanged and function the same as they have previously – they will override the ADSR volume when used in tables or phrases.
 +
 +
'''Z command enhancements'''
 +
 +
In the post “Don’t Sleep on Z (feat. Hypnogram)”, I indicated that Z did not work with D, G, or H commands. This is no longer the case! Z now works with every command except H (and of course, Z itself). This could make for some very interesting rhythmic consequences, as we now have the ability to randomize using a straight groove or a swung groove, for example. I’m really looking forward to trying this out and seeing what happens!
 +
 +
'''Miscellanous minor changes'''
 +
 +
To wrap up this entry, there are a few minor changes that are likely worth mentioning to help avoid confusion. Let’s have a little “lightning round” of small changes:
 +
 +
• Tables can now switch between “Play” and “Step”, where Play is the usual 1-tick-per-line, and Step is what was previously called “Automate”.
 +
 +
• The setting previously called “FX/SPEED” in version 7 has been renamed to “CMD RATE”.
 +
 +
• The wave instrument screen now shows the parameter “Loop Pos” instead of “Repeat” and rather than setting how many frames will loop, it sets the position of the loop point. Setting the loop point to 0 will repeat every wave frame specified by the length for the instrument.
 +
 +
• Using R commands in the wave channel will now retrig the synth from the beginning wave frame.
 +
 +
• Wave instruments are now set to Manual playback by default.
 +
 +
• Synths can now be cloned from the Wave Instrument screen (press Select+(A,B) on the Synth number).
 +
 +
• By default, a new instrument is set to use the channel where it was created.
 +
 +
• Setting xF in the table volume column will hop to row x.
 +
 +
• It’s now possible to use prelisten with a PS/2 keyboard, and to configure key delay in the Project screen.
 +
 +
• “Clean Song Data” and “Clean Instrument Data” now remove duplicate chains, instruments, and tables.
 +
 +
'''Optimizations and tweaks for usability'''
 +
 +
This is truly last but NOT least! Many changes have been made to optimize the playback of songs and the responsiveness of the interface. For a while, it’s been known by many users that simultaneously using V commands in three channels could potentially cause the Game Boy to slow down, freeze, become unresponsive, and/or possibly crash. This is no longer the case! The old brick DMG can handle this and more at tempos in excess of 250 without choking or slowing down. Some of the button presses (such as pressing A twice to make a new chain) have been optimized to be more user-friendly, and screen navigation and scrolling is more responsive.
 +
 +
Once again, a huge thanks to Johan Kotlinski for doing some amazing work over the past few months to make version 8 a truly incredible piece of software, and making improvements that almost seem like they should be impossible!
 +
 +
Let me know if you have any questions about the new version, or ideas that you would like to see for future installments of Intense Tech by emailing me at defensemech@chiptuneswin.com! Until next time, this is DEFENSE MECHANISM, signing off!
