- little-scale — $1 Nanoloop MIDI Sync (2009) summaryThe minimum viable sync box: one CMOS chip and no microcontroller , syncing nanoloop to MIDI clock. It is the design people actually built, and the comment thread is a good record of what goes wrong.
- little-scale — Nanoloop Tuned to 18-TET, Hacked ROM (2009) summaryThe earliest post of the cluster, a day before the LSDj tables, and the one that explains the arithmetic in words. Same technique, different tracker: nanoloop 1.3d retuned to 18 equal divisions of the octave.
- little-scale — Sync Options for Game Boy Music (2008) summaryThe census of Game Boy synchronisation as it stood in October 2008: eighteen devices, what each one can and cannot do, and who made it. Nothing else in the wiki maps this territory.
- little-scale — the Arduino Game Boy sync boxes: syncThing, Sync Tank and the AU$15 build (2008) summaryThree months in which a breadboard became a documented build anyone could copy for about AU$15. The important content is the pin-level wiring , which differs between lsdj and nanoloop and is stated nowhere else in the …
- little-scale — USB MIDI Game Boy Sync for $16, and DIN sync 24 (2011) summaryThree years after the Arduino boxes, the same job with no MIDI socket, no optocoupler and no power supply: a Teensy 2.0 that the computer sees as a MIDI device. This is also where the wiki gets a Game Boy link-plug …
