What FMDj does

  • FMDj runs Game Boy music programs inside the FM-1: LSDj the tracker and DMGo! the drum machine.
  • You bring your own LSDj or DMGo ROM, and the install page puts it into the firmware over USB.
  • One program is on the FM-1 at a time; install the other to change.
  • PLAY starts the program and acts as START, and SEQ acts as SELECT.
  • The SELECT and ALGORITHM knobs move left, right, up and down, as do the HOME, ARP, SCL and SAVE buttons.
  • The top F and G keys are A and B, and holding the top F while turning a knob changes a value.
  • DMGo's sixteen steps sit on the sixteen white keys, and LSDj's screen shortcuts are the PRESETS knob with OCT- and OCT+.
  • REC held for a second saves to the FM-1's flash, and PLAY after power-on loads that save.
