It's time to get your chipmusic on! This is your chance to win a SEGA Master System MIDI Interface. Be the coolest musician in your town with this brand new tool that lets you control the sound chip in your SEGA Master System with MIDI data.



The Prize
The prize includes the following:
• brand-new, hand made little-scale-brand SEGA Master System MIDI Interface (SMSM)
• instruction manual
• required cable

Since this product will not be available on the market by the time the competition ends, the winner will be the only member of the public to own this cool piece of retro boutique music hardware!



Competition Details
Submit a SEGA-related music track. This may be:
• chipmusic written for the SEGA Master System / SEGA Mega Drive
• music written within the constraints of the SEGA Master System / SEGA Mega Drive
• music that is covering / remixing a specific SEGA Master System / SEGA Mega Drive tune
• any of the above may include additional instrumentation (whether electronic or more traditional) - however, the focus should be on the SEGA aspects of the work

Music that does not fit into the above categories will be disqualified. If your entry is a cover or a remix of a SEGA Master System / SEGA Mega Drive tune, please be sure to include what it is that you are covering.

Please note that there will only be one winner. The judge(s) decision is final.

Awesome, It's time to make a Marble Zone remix, or convert my last midi for genesis. My Band could really use that midi interface...

Everything sounds kick ass with a SN76489 lead.

That's pretty awesome... I'm four hours from home right now so I have to wait to start. I had downloaded the tracker right before I left.

Normally I completly don't like using trackers, I prefer cakewalk's sonar's notation system, with vsts. I want to get a real genuine genesis sound though, so I believe that's my only choice.

I can only stand trackers (with separate ordertable per channel), sequencers and other things aren't for me...

I'm a strictly notated music guy, I can't take writing any tracker one bit. I believe I'll have to go with it anyways though.

Interesting... considering I've got an army of Hardware and Software Synths already... this isn't my cup.

Definitely a novel thing for a true Sega fan though if he's a musician:!:

I just can't get my trackers down... I guess I'll record a Sonic 2 Medley or something..
