EDIT: New update!!! See last page
Something special I coded a month ago:
| Quote: |
The Roland TR-909 drum machine is the beat box that launched the electronic dance music revolution. As Ishkur says in his EDM Guide, "The 909 doesn't have a bass drum -- that's just a weird thud emanating from the box that has launched a million dance records." The familiar oonst oonst oonst rhythm and the signature hand clapping has filled dance floors since 1980.
I wrote DS Drum Machine to pay homage to this classic drum machine that is ubiquitous throughout trance music. I love the sound of it. Want to rap, dance, or practice beat boxing? Better do it in style by whipping out your Nintendo DS with DS Drum Machine on it. :) |

Let me know what you think about it!

I hope full Supercard SD is added to chishm's libs soon. I'd like to be able to play with this.

Okay, I hear you all! I released a version that works on every homebrew method for DS. Check it out on the site or grab it directly from here:

It's awesome. You absolutely need a GUI, though.

Use that as a basis. :D
Can't wait to see how this project progresses.

Thats bloody awesome :D
Good work man. DS Synths would be pretty freaking cool - sadly it doesn't have the power for reverb :)

Not sure if you will want to use this, but I've made a TR-909 display you can put in your program. I guess you could either make it functional or purely for nostalgia on the bottom screen. Anyway, your free to use it.

Hmm it's weird. I've tried both versions (the GBAMP and the nogbamp), both launch fine, but in both case I've got no sound!
I see the "line" moving, and can add X's but nothing, and I've tried moving the sound slider.
I've got an M3 with firmware V6.
#76128 - TheChuckster - Sat Mar 18, 2006 2:33 pm
headspin, that's awesome! Thanks. As for the M3 problems, I really don't know what could be up with that...
I read something about the powerON line a while back. I'm using
| Code: |
| powerON(POWER_ALL_2D); |
Any developers with M3 have any ideas?

As the M3 and G6 firmwares turn off the power to the 2D cores before running a program, homebrew which does not remember to turn the power on does not run on these flash carts.
Homebrew authors can ensure M3/G6 compatibility by adding "powerON(POWER_ALL_2D|POWER_SWAP_LCDS);".
As a workaround for existing homebrew that does not turn the power on, I'm releasing an nds loader that will turn the power on before running the program.
Download from http://pepsiman.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/m3powerloader.bin
Windows usage: copy /b m3powerloader.bin + file.nds file.ds.gba
Unix usage: cat m3powerloader.bin file.nds > file.ds.gba
Put the .ds.gba file on your CF card or on your G6 and run from the menu as normal. |
then again.. Your having a problem with the sound? :S

But normally incompatible software hangs the DS. Here it runs fine, there's just no sound, and it's kind of problematic for this kind of soft ;)

Yes it does. Use audio capture on the DS audio output, run a delay/early reflection filter on this, and then play it back on the last couple channels.

Oddly enough, the software runs perfectly fine on my Firmware v16'd M3, and my DS has the latest flashme installed as well.
MatLeOuf, did you launch it like a game, or did you launch it like a demo? (Pressing "Start" to launch it, as opposed to pressing "A")
headspin, the GUI looks pretty neat but you're missing a few areas from the original machine :) Though, from the looks of it, there's no room unless you modify the input area for the drums in the pattern.

I've got the same "setup" as you. I tried both : when I press "A", I see the interface but nothing happens, no sound and I can't move the cursor ; when I press Start, everything moves, I can add X's but I don't hear any sound...
#76217 - tssf - Sun Mar 19, 2006 4:23 pm
Reminds me of the DSLair sound issue I had when playing back on a GBAMP. I noticed that sound only comes out of one channel (left) when playing back on my M3..could that also be an issue with the M3?

I tried, and it worked gr8 on my M3 SD... but when I try again (turn off and on my DS and load the file) it doesnt make any sound anymore...
:(
this looks very similair to Fruity Loops on the PC :)
#76233 - TheChuckster - Sun Mar 19, 2006 6:02 pm
Has sound ever worked before with NDS homebrew on your M3?

yes :)
the sound worked first for me.. but my battery was empty while playing.. and now.. no sound anymore (with your homebrew)
#76243 - HtheB - Sun Mar 19, 2006 7:16 pm
oke guys.. I fixed it with the pepsiman loader! :)
it works GREAT!

here you go M3 GUYS! LETS GET THE BEAT STARTED!
#76245 - quadomatic - Sun Mar 19, 2006 7:38 pm

I too wish it had a gui though
#76246 - HtheB - Sun Mar 19, 2006 7:49 pm
| quadomatic wrote: |

oke..
it has a sample at the beginning..
+ (D-pad) = select a place to put in or delete a sound (you can see the instrument on the bottum of the topscreen)
A = add sound
B = delete sound
L = let the beat go faster
R = let the beat go slower
select = make a larger place to set beats (you cant go back to the earlier once again :( )
start = delete all sounds
:)
#76247 - MatLeOuf - Sun Mar 19, 2006 7:56 pm
Thanks! Works also for me now :)
Good job with the app by the way!

#76376 - TheChuckster - Tue Mar 21, 2006 3:52 am
headspin, your awesome 909 GUI interface integrated nicely into the program. You were a great help to the project. Just a few more features to add (maybe this weekend) and then a new release.
I owe it to you...
#76676 - headspin - Thu Mar 23, 2006 1:47 pm
np :) Let me know if you end up putting in the 303 and I'll nock up a graphic for that.

Right now I'm planning on adding an 808. 303 will be done once I figure out a way to make my soft synth sound like one. (Gotta somehow implement a fixed-point low-pass filter with just Precalculus knowledge)
#76728 - tepples - Thu Mar 23, 2006 10:59 pm
To learn how to make an IIR low-pass filter, you'll need to learn digital signal processing. Free online tutorial

I released a new version with a lot of added features like 808 samples, a graphical user interface, a new demo, and accented drums. It's pretty sweet!
Check it out at my website: http://thechuckster.homelinux.com/tr909/
Let me know how you like it and tell me about any bugs.
I'd like a digital camera photo of a DS running it, too, with the new GUI. Any photos would be greatly appreciated. My email is TheChuckster [(a)] gmail.com

I compiled an experimental build just for you with the M3 SD and Supercard SD support enabled in the FAT library. Replace the current stable NDS file with this experimental one and try running it.
Here's the link:
http://thechuckster.homelinux.com/~chuck/tr909_test.nds
Report back on how well it worked. I hope this helps.
#85590 - vb_master - Thu Jun 01, 2006 3:03 am
I got a error on FAT_fclose and FAT_fread. PassKey, MP.

:'( thats a pity :( (but I still got the old version ^_^ )
#88848 - TheChuckster - Wed Jun 21, 2006 9:32 pm
Okay. Great news! There's a new release. Test it out. It has a new FAT library that should hopefully work with all of your media devices.
EDIT: Try it out on a real subwoofer. I plugged it into my AV receiver downstairs and the 808 bass drum shakes the whole house...
#91337 - Neil - Thu Jul 06, 2006 3:13 pm
I've downloaded this again, and unforunately it's still not working on the m3 MiniSD. I just get a black top-screen and a white bottom screen. Anyone got it working with this setup? Seems like an ace program, can't wait to try it out!
#91346 - TheYak - Thu Jul 06, 2006 4:40 pm
I've got a DSL w/ M3 MiniSD (2GB Sandisk), flashed with v7 and it works fine for me.
I can't be certain now, but when using the passcard device, I think I had to jump it through Moonshell to get it to run.
Didn't do anything crazy for setup, I've got the TR909 binary under a subdirectory and the TR909 directory at the root of the card.
#93476 - Mota - Wed Jul 19, 2006 12:29 pm
None of the releases so far have worked on my Supercard MiniSD + Flashmev7lite.
The first hangs at 'loading background' or something
The second gives black screens
The 'test' version just garbles + dies
A real shame, I'm dying to try this out!
#93537 - TheChuckster - Wed Jul 19, 2006 7:50 pm
Well, I might be able to squeeze in some time to do a ROMfs version.

#94861 - Mota - Wed Jul 26, 2006 2:42 pm
Ah now I see, the backing beat is sequenced, not a sample.
This is a brilliant little program, with a few extra features it would be in the same league as nitrotracker in my opinion.
I'd really like a start/stop function. Simple, but essential.
The ability to copy/paste entire patterns would be great, as would other options like cutting/deleting etc
It'd also be nice if it booted with all the patterns empty, though once saving is implemented i suppose it won't matter.
I'm really looking forward to future versions of this, thanks :)

#151165 - Sektor - Wed Feb 20, 2008 9:40 am
I mirrored some versions of this ages ago:
http://gtamp.com/DS/drum-machine
The nogbamp version should work on anything but it's an old version with just ascii graphics.
The other versions will only work on GBAMP and maybe DS-X. It won't work on R4 or anything else since it was made long before DLDI.
