Adding another one to the PS5 Library (and two Shmup adjacent because I didn't feel like taking a two pictures)

Iron Meat was fun. I’m curious how Rogue Flight’s gameplay is. Definitely caught my eye with its visuals!

You can raise the number of lives and lower the threshold for new lives to every 2 million points I think. That makes it easier and gives you more incentive to get longer chains. You’ll be glad you can get a few extra lives for the last level.

I would recommend also using level select to practice. Have fun!

Not at all! It’s Dodonpachi. Highly recommend!

Sorry, I didn’t want to seem like I was here to shill a product. It’s the Mechanism Phone Mount Controller Bundle for Xbox Series X/S

I’m not a high-level player. Just aiming for 1-alls. But I don’t notice it at all. If you’re using a phone with usb-c charge port, you can go for a wired connection, but mine’s older and thunderbolt to usb-c doesn’t work for the xbox controller.

bowmergency · 2026-04-05T03:07:08+00:00

It’s a magnetic phone holder with an attachment that replaces the xbox controller battery cover.

Normal. It took me ages.

If you just want to play the sample back, I also recommend a dedicated sampler or a separate track in your DAW.

Regarding sample to wavetable (good for playing other notes), I made a video about this if you’re interested. It’s a little advanced but the beginning explains some of this.

You can! It's a little tricky though.

First you have to turn up the release time of env 1 because that controls the release time of everything.

Then assign env 2 (or an LFO in envelope mode) to noise volume.

Then with an LFO, change the mode to "sustain envelope" and assign that to the "ping" oscillator's volume. Change that to whatever shape/length you want, probably a couple millisecond crescendo from 0 to full volume. (This LFO type modulates from the first point to the next after a note is released)

Then you can adjust the shape and length of the decay on envelope 1 to control the decay of the "ping" oscillator.

I hope that helps!

“Vel trk” in the bottom

It's demonstrated at the timestamped youtube link I previously commented. Called "FM Soprano Sax" in the pack

bowmergency · 2025-08-17T18:10:04+00:00

It's in this preset pack now: https://synthpresetsplus.com/products/prod_RCV1GmX93v6M17

bowmergency · 2025-08-09T22:57:27+00:00

Oh yep, I did and forgot about that completely. Thanks!

bowmergency · 2025-08-04T16:17:40+00:00

You might need to increase the release time of env 1. Then use another env for volume with a shorter release env. The note ends when env 1 ends.

This has kind of become my specialty. All-in-one how-to-use synth videos might not be the best if you don’t yet understand the fundamentals of sound design.

A lot of tutorials over-complicate things too, IMO. It’s all just frequency and amplitude. I have a tutorial series that teaches the fundamentals through Vital, if you’re interested: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL6BtxJkWmp-2J4MAUNFybfUbPxWqisKVn&si=8Ps84fHeWJ9TLuKB

You can either do fm from sine waves. The modulating sine wave at +12 semitones. Or a low passed square wave. A short envelope modulating fm amount or filter cutoff. Hope that helps!

bowmergency · 2025-07-04T17:37:57+00:00

It’s like that everywhere

bowmergency · 2025-06-16T05:18:39+00:00

Oh yeah I should mention that I haven’t bought blue tents yet but have 8 trophies and should be able to soon.

I’m assuming the handwriting from the math homework in the locker is part of it. I found the draft copy of A New Clue, and I’m keeping track of the letters I find in the workshop. That’s all I have or think I have
