Description
It’s not exactly a simulated 8-bit model, but it lets you easily create “8-bit-style” or chiptune-like sounds.
I just started learning Max for Live, and this device is actually my very first patch. I'm really enjoying building instruments in Max!
Also, I’m an indie game designer.
I recently released a new game on PS4, Xbox, Nintendo Switch, and Steam — it’s called “Dungeon and Gravestone.” Please check it out if you’re interested!
Thanks!
