youtube randomly recommended this to me, read the description to clear things up a bit yes, this mostly has to do with the limitations of the chips themselves. i honestly wouldn't advise to mix/ master any of these arrangements without separating the fm from the samples. there are unfixable and irreversible quirks ofc like the sample quality with some of the drums (that i actually separated with ai/ mml, which already has its own issues) but the hissing and distorted of the mastered tracks themselves come from the soundchip limitations themselves, like the sample chip i prefer to use; the ymz280b, or otherwise known as the pcmd8. the sample chip despite its flexibility and crazy sample storage space has one downside: it has a hard-coded light low-pass interpolation on it, much like the gaussian interpolation on the snes s-smp, but less egregious. there will be a light hissing noise if you ever try to amplify the higher frequencies. the fm chip, the ym2151 can clip a bit if the presets are played too loudly. as much as i want to release these arrangements with proper mixing and mastering, these hardware limitations make it a challenge to do so; i painstakingly do proper mixing for hq audio after being given the advice of a friend, but i do intend to keep the lower quality for my chiptune tracks regardless. i keep these flaws because they're what makes these soundchips unique (but also for the technical reasons already mentioned)
100%, and i definitely did notice there was that hissing there. Your arrangements are already mixed perfectly fine, I’m just over here “mario-in-unreal”ing with all the sound chip’s jank and quirks so the tracks can sound a bit better in my car under all the road noise, lmao. Thanks for the explanation, I’m definitely not fully versed in this sorta retro music sequencing world, so it’s nice to get the “lore” so to speak on why they are the way they are. If I was going to properly do this I 100% would have taken the sequence files and tried reconstructing samples, etc. These tracks are straight heat Joy! I especially love your drum work, the drum programming and patterns are far above what I feel I could personally do with my current skills. Keep up the great work ❤️
@@justdancepro428 actually thank you for complimenting my drum programming haha. i've always wanted to be a musician that plays instruments (in general) but after taking piano and guitar classes i realized i never really had the dedication to learn them. growing up as a singer with an extensive musical background, i at the very least try to dip my toes into music production since that is about as close as i can get i particularly wanted to play the drums growing up because i knew that the drums entirely change the groove and "feel" of a song, so when i got good enough i reaaaally started paying attention to drum playing, so getting that compliment really feels great ^^

this truly is a song I could just dance to, in a professional sense
We truly live in a Mario World... Mamamia !
this is sick
i have no clue what this is or why it appeared on my feed but its 🔥🔥
