I ordered a backlit game boy
Re: I ordered a backlit game boy
You could use Audacity on your mac to record audio from the prosound line-out of your DMG. The audio capabilities of mac computers are usually better (less noisy) than the audio hardware packaged with most PCs.
Same cart I got. It works well.

No, the lineout goes to your linein on your mac via a 3.5mm to 3.5mm jack cable.

Line in would be better since that's generally expected to be at a certain loudness. On PCs, the mic jack is usually pink and the line in is usually baby blue. Not sure on Macs if they have standard colors like that.NathanBarnatt wrote:ohh the mic jack?

If your using a macbook there is only a 'in' and a 'out' jack, at least on the two I have owned.

Re: I ordered a backlit game boy
I think a better way to do it would be to use a good sound recording program and just use a standard 1/8" audio jack running from the line-out of the Gameboy (headphone jack) to the microphone jack on your mac. Just hit record and play the song.NathanBarnatt wrote:I got a prosound modded DMG.
I could get the songs to a PC then turn them into mp3's or something so I can get them on my mac right?
And I ordered this cart

edit: doh again! I missed this page! damn you RacketBoy!
so, in other words, +1 on the mic jack idea.
For simplicity's sake, if you didn't know, its the same cable people use with MP3 players with the AUX jack on their car, just a straight through cable with the same plug on both ends.

Re: I ordered a backlit game boy
Yeah I always call it the mic jack. Like on boom boxes. They used to have the headphone jack and the other one always said mic. But I know what one you guys are talking about. This should be no problem. Thanks.

Re: I ordered a backlit game boy
OK I got my LSDJ cart but I cannot get it to work. it was supposed to be loaded with the LSDJ rom but when I turn on the GB nothing happens. No graphics just the gameboy sound. I have the rom on my comp but I cant get the cartridge to register on my desktop when I plug it in to the usb cable. I even tried on my friends PC. Nothing.
How do I get a rom on this thing?
