FamiStudio is very simple music editor for the Nintendo Entertainment System or Famicom. It is designed to be easier to use than FamiTracker, but its feature set is also much more limited. subtitle

  • Looking for information about nes music.....
    Broadly speaking, most would compose on actual instruments, notate on staff paper, and then program the audio chip instructions manually, in Music Macro Language, or using a custom utility developed by the musician or studio. Tracker programs became available starting with the Amiga platform in the late 1980s, but most trackers were still written specifically for the hardware the program ran on. Today, NES...

  • any tips for nes style chiptunes?
    You can use a program like FamiTracker (tracker-style interface) or FamiStudio (midi/piano-roll-style interface) which reproduce the NES's limitations and can export .nsf files which you can play back on an actual NES or emulator. Source: about 1 year ago
  • What do you guys use to make audio effects and music for your game?
    Recently using FamiStudio for Chiptune music. Its like FamiTracker but with a regular DAW like workflow - https://famistudio.org/. Source: over 1 year ago
  • Everdrive N8 Pro - Gray
    Here you go dude. Pretty sure there is every game here, and all of the nsf files for them. AND if you want to actually delete an instrument or change it, there is a way to edit them on pc. https://famistudio.org/. Source: almost 2 years ago
  • Ocarina of Time - Lost Woods (NES Version)
    For this cover I used FamiStudio to be as close as possible to the sound of the original NES. Source: almost 2 years ago
  • Software for making simple game soundtracks
    Unless you are fine with chiptune, you kind of have to learn. (otherwise FamiStudio is your best bet) It's a bit hard at first, but it gets really fun really fast! Source: about 2 years ago
  • Any good chiptune tutorials for modern software?
    If you really want to replicate the sound of chiptune then your easiest route is using software designed specifically for the job. For NES your main options there are Famitracker (my choice) or Famistudio, both of which are free. The former is a tracker, the latter is sort of like a sequencer. Source: over 2 years ago
  • FamiStudio 3.2.0 : Android and Multiple audio expansions
    Hey guys. This version features a brand new Android port and support for multiple audio expansions at the same time. Head over to https://famistudio.org for the full change log. Source: over 2 years ago
  • FamiStudio - Undertale - Spear of Justice 2A03 + VRC7
    You should try it out! It’s pretty easy to pick up, and there are nice tutorials about it too. https://famistudio.org. Source: over 2 years ago
  • FamiStudio 3.1.0
    As a heads-up, the famistudio.org website is broken with Firefox on Android for me. I can only see the Windows logo and macOS logo underneath Downloads, the rest only appear if I scroll sideways (no scrollbar indication on the browser). This should end up stacking 2x2 with a responsive design. I had absolutely no idea Linux support was a thing because of the website bug. This has made my day though! Source: over 2 years ago
  • I FINALLY DID IT! I completed my first ever game!
    I know this is probably a bit late, but did you consider FamiStudio for making the music? It's open source (like the rest of the tools you're using) and is designed for the type of music you seem to be making. Source: almost 3 years ago
  • Heres an NES song I've made called - Cryo's Tower
    Thanks! I used FamiStudio, which you can get here: https://famistudio.org. Source: about 3 years ago
  • NES music.....
    There's also Famistudio, which is meant to be more user-friendly, but a bit limited in its feature set. I've played around with it a bit and it's surprisingly competent. Source: about 3 years ago
