I don't know how arpeggios can be "NES-style", but they were definitely a rare thing in the 16-bit era. I know one SNES soundtrack that stil uses them, but it's actually a good one.

Also, Hybris on the Amiga, but it's quite the opposite of bad.

>>3266404
When I said NES-style, I meant the fast arpeggios that are used by Western devs to make up for a lack of sound channels, which wasn't really a problem with 16-bit systems (although it was a problem on the Amiga, since it only had 4 channels).

Let's not forget the most ear rapping arpeggios brought you by the Codemasters.

But the Amiga has sample tune. Sample tune really doesn't need arpeggios.

That's not a single note trill, you fuckwad. That song plays arpeggiated "chords" in the background by rapidly cycling through the individual notes at high speeds, which was a technique common on the NES because of the limited sound channels but not on the Genesis.

>> No.3272314

>>3272214
Except that IS a single note being played, dipshit.

What you're calling an arpeggio is:

A-A-A C-C-C D-D-D

What an arpeggio actually is:

A-C-D A-C-D A-C-D

The video linked even said as much, if you had bothered to watch it, you fucking cunt.

Jesus you assholes. From the beginning until 0:07 is a proper arpeggio.

You obviously have no idea what people mean by "arpeggio" in a chiptune context.

I'm not talking about the melody. I'm talking about the chords that play in the background. You hear how they sound "busy"? That's because it's not actually a chord, it's a single sound channel rapidly cycling through a series of notes so that it sounds like a chord. That's what chiptune composers refer to as an arpeggio, and by the classical definition that literally is what an arpeggio is. The difference here is that they play it at a high speed so that you can't easily hear the gaps between notes.

Now shut the fuck up, you autistic twat.
