MuddyGB

MuddyGB(located here http://f28.aaa.livedoor.jp/~stepgirl/) is a piece of software that allows the Gameboy series to act as a live instrument.



Using the directional pad, the user can select and play 8 tones of a musical scale.
The A and B buttons act as pitch bend and raise the pitch by a 4th respectively.

The START button jumps up or down an octave, depending on current location.

The SELECT button in conjuction with directions allows access to base note (SELECT + UP or DOWN), scale(SELECT + RIGHT), and wave duty(SELECT + LEFT)

The scale options are Lydian, Dorian, and Blues.

This is a similar application to PIXELH8's "Music Tech Pro Performer" which I will make an effort to try, now that it has become free.
