Beatscribe - Y2K (LSDj + BSR1 + GB-303)
YouTube video by J Beatscribe Beatscribe - Y2K (LSDj + BSR1 + GB-303)

If you look at my youtube channel, the Y2K example. the LSDj and GB-303 are sync'd via link cable and the BSR is just solo'ing over top of it, kind of like a guitar or bass player could play along with the GB track. www.youtube.com/watch?v=7TAQ... of course you can use it all alone too.

05.12.2025 22:31 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 5    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

chords are possible because duty1, wave and noise on the BSR1 are playing part of it (chords and drums) and the LSDj us playing the rest of the chords, bass line and little triangle high hats.

The BSR1 "samples" being triggered play out of duty2 on the BSR gameboy (the GBC in this video).

So under the hood, this is hUGEDriver and Gb studio firing off VGM or WAV samples (essentially sound effects) when you trigger stuff. The LSDj sync function lets hUGEDriver sent ticks via link cable so LSDj will play in time with hUGEDriver. In the "Snow Day" example you can hear those massive jazz
