The Chipophone

[MrEnterthehole]

How excellent!

[deesies]

Can you buy these?

[neondreamscollide]

NERDGASM

[GamerBlue53]

How come the sound turns good once he starts playing, but when he talks, the level of sound is poor quality?

[0xabad1dea]

@GamerBlue53 I am guessing he ran a remove noise filter. It would work much better on the very clean chiptune soundwaves than on his voice.

[karateboytexas]

@GamerBlue53 maybe because he's using the midi sounds? idk

[proto35]

this deserves a gold star.

[filipsrtx]

super smecher

[raven8dragon]

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOW!! 8D

[spookylocopv]

This most likely the best musical device ever created

[codejens]

I am so proud of being from Sweden right now. I got goosebumps from listening to the pure awesomeness coming from my speakers :D I love you Linus, will you marry me?

[torchiest]

This is seriously one of the coolest things ever! Mr. Åkesson, you are my hero sir.

[Tzanthor]

I jizzed at the megaman part.

I would pay everything from my bank account plus an organ or two (human not electric) for this

[laurentsilver]

Ehh, sorry youtube, there is a problem... there is a dislike button for this video...

Can you fix this please?

[fnuggie]

This is like a whole new level of awesome. It's like Super Mario for the NES, playing 1 - 1

[Taelios]

Can I buy one?



[feedingfrenzy123]

@Falkalore

He recording so it's good quality. Recording eith the camera the sound wouldn't be as good. Also when he's playing it looks real to me.

[LibertatemPopuli]

I would take human life with my own two hands and nothing more for one of these machines.

I would rob a person of their undeniable right to live.

[xLucidor]

i want that! :D

[PenetraxOfficial]

Always wanted to know what Egon Spengler is up to these days!

[jeffsolis]

Does anybody know any VSTs that might approximate what this does?

[EncyclopedicHobo]

I want one!

[MrFlashmn]

This is awesome :D

[rikzel]

Cool

[GroovyMango]

I respect you!!!! :)

[tom1993rox]

I keep jamming cash into the modem and nothing's happening!

[winstonschannel]

You are a fucking legend mate, you seriously need to put these into production i would actually KILL for one!! Well done dude :D

[DustyEktpo]

My life have now a sense. I'll have to built this. For me and my tracks.

[SeanRamey]

Dude, you should go into business selling these!! People would definitelty buy them!!

[MattWroblewskiSztybe]

HOW TO BUILD!!

[ForeverRonery]

This is fucking amazing.

FUND IT

[UltraFlashlight]

The chipophone has been seriously underestimated by 90% of musicians. I've herd quite a few say that they're not impressed by it's sounds but do they realize how many people get a high off of nostalgia from them? Obviously the sounds strike a cord with people.

BTW Can you do song B (the one from Gameboy Tetris)?

[reshamhouserecording]

WANT IT WANT IT WANT IT

[patu8010]

The guy's a genious

[lonesoldier33]

2:20 hurts my ears for some strange reason... lol

[Merutochan]

What is this sorcery

are you a wizard

[TheGrungeGamer2]

Could you do an 8-Bit cover of Into The Ocean by Blue October??? I'd be enthralled to have heard an 8-Bit version of it, since nobody has one on YouTube at all...not even on Famitracker.

[slipcurve]

this is pure win

[Jonny2myren]

He should go on tour with this and do live concerts.

I´d sure as hell go!

[pitbohl]

yeah... commando highscore ♥

[aviatalker]

cheater. fuck, hate 100%.

[NyoronChibiChan]

I LOVE IT!!

[otherside65]

fucking awesome indeed.....

[VoluntaryZonkey]

SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY

[JimJamGames]

You sir, just made epic more epic.

[AleaseLaurynxn236]

[feedingfrenzy123]

One of my favourite videos on youtube!

[BladeUYA]

I wan't one!!!!!!

[yoyomyma]

Damn! It doesn't seem to amaze me, the stuff you find on youtube. What fucking creativity. You look like you're like 12 years old, yet so much wisdom. Keep rockin' that chip thing, dude!

[Arni3P1e]

Linus you Legend!

[cvl85]

The MOST AWESOME ORGAN EVER!!!

[5k177]

AWESOME! Thank you for this development.

Maybe this will help a whole generation, not to forget the many many wonderful Moments of gaming and the belonging music!

[Artemisdamm]

[gootube2000]

[RedBigButton]

[nellAynoT]

[mattnlondon]

[9yoshimitsu6]

Haha :D Folk pratarom 2 procentaren. att vad du än gör så finns det minst 2 procent som inte gillar det :) Congratulations you beat the "2%ers" Achievement unlocked!

[TheWinsane]

6:47-7:00 made me nerdgasm, my favorite part of my favorite chiptune played in an epic way.

[imageConstruct]

i can't find that comic bakery song anywhere. does anyone know what it is

[KorabanVII]

@imageConstruct The title of the vid on youtube is: Comic Bakery Commodore 64 Loader Tune

He only plays a short little part so you may not have noticed.

[parp12345]

This guys a genius!

[ifneeed]

Where can I buy one?

[amnizu]

there arent enough words to adequately describe how fuckin AWESOME this is

[gulfwind94]

I've been looking for this instrument for so long!!



[BCMAHFUCKINBADMAN]

Genius!

[MAHA673TFM]

u should make a live cover of "unreal superhero"

[MAHA673TFM]

you're the final boss of chiptunes

and u're tottaly made of win just like @subcomjj said

[renegade8164]

I wonder how much you would get for it if you sold it on eBay... :D

[sorohanro]

EPIC !!!

[xSabi95x]

That's so awesome! I want you to play at my birthday party, lol

[Subcomjj]

you sir are made of win and awesome

[Skelpolu]

If it's true 8-bit, why do you call it "Chipophone"? 8-bit != chiptune, you know.

[killerbee230]

@Skelpolu What are you talking about? The music is created with a chip hence the name chiptune! And since 8bit music is also created with a chip then it must be a chiptune :)

[ericcef]

88 people never played 8 bit games and wasted their childhood...

[Minecrafter42]

Dude, you realize how much money you could make by selling this to people? Your website gives general directions, but there are a lot of people who want one of these but know nothing about how to fix this themselves.

For the sake of the world, please sell them!

[Scathe8000]

fuck, he makes it seem so easy

[andjoha]

I love how u say "this is the chipophone. it used to be an electric organ but i've repurposed it to be an 8-bit synthesizer for live chiptune player" as it's a completely normal thing to do! :D

[markhunter1993]

:O How do i do this ????

[Stephenmartin14]

Pure Dopeness

[Sengoku69]

Perfect !!!



[fallguyzero]

i want one.

[MrNorbert1994]

4:49 It's sounds like a harpscichord.

[TheLeeemon]

Que nerd que sos, hijo de puta!!

[lyzedekiel]

your last song is my favorite 8-bit song... thank you !

[LukaFilipan]

When I see an engineer who's also a musician it makes me believe that there's still hope for mankind.

[drlight0]

this guy is an animal. not only did he make this - but he can rock out like a mofo

[DaJamin8r762]

SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY!!!!!!1

[Pezrawr]

Wow, you are awesome. I'm going to try making one of these.

[SpiderPrawn]

This is soooo amazing. <3

[imageConstruct]

brilliant

[keyboardjeff]

Amazing! I love its sounds. Can you play some kraftwerk on it? I think it is well suited for that.

[elsico82]

amazing!!!

[Gurkensalsa]

good job dude

[EffingTank]

can I call fake.

[eaglerat1]

@EffingTank No, you can't.

[EffingTank]

@eaglerat1 not to dis the guy but I just watch this and I'm like "why is the voice audio so bad but the 'chipophone' audio so good." I'd like to believe it was real but I just don't think so.

[masterofhobbiton]

@EffingTank In the description you can go to a link with a making of page... It has pictures... I doubt he would buy and take apart an organ just to make an incredibly elaborate youtube hoax...

[EffingTank]

@masterofhobbiton actually if you read it he didn't buy it, a friend did and never used it. but the point remains that he modified an old organ to be an 8 bit synthesizer. now that I see that he removed the speaker in it to send it straight to a computer it makes sense that it has better audio than him. The part about the foot pedal it quite odd.

[HurfNurf]

@EffingTank audio is fed from the organ to a computer, his voice is recorded with the crappy camera mic

[ChuckyGang]

@EffingTank think this is fake.. search "chipophone lcp live" on youtube.. and be ASHAMED! its not fake FFS!

[krononauten]

@EffingTank

MIDI connected to computer...

[PicklesReallySuck]

You're my hero.

[stekskalle]

Det...Bästa...Någonsin....

[ReynOuwehand]

STILL AWESOME!!!!

[lftkryo]

@ReynOuwehand \o/

[mwarsell]

Your Commando high score kicks butt. What about the title theme?

[CaffeineCreations]

Det här är något av det fräckaste jag sett. Vill ha! :D

[BiologicallySuper]

[td99eli]

Grattis på födelsedagen. Såg artikel i Sydsvenskan om dig idag. Jag gillar din Chipofon, nostalgitripp FTW!

Nah, just kidding :) Kudos for your chipophone !

[bahoxu]

Amazing. Well done.

[TheStyleba]

[berriosp]

IDOLO

[Moratorium]

is that rob hubbard the scientology guy?

[lftkryo]

@Moratorium Is Santa the inferno guy?

[beowulf1963]

@Moratorium No, it's Ron Hubbard.

[repvik]

@Moratorium Ron L. Hubbard is the (dead) sci-fi writer that started a religion to get rich quick. Rob Hubbard is a (living) british composer.

[JordanClunn]

@Moratorium that's L. Ron. not rob. :I

[moijk]

@Moratorium No, that is Ron Hubbard (American). Two very different people. Rob Hubbard (englishman) is a musican

[4narkhya]

@Moratorium

Replace Rob by Ron and you have your man..

[endederzivilisation]

Oh boy, this Megaman tune is the best 8-bit song I've ever heard. <3

[calorifuge]

Whaoooo your version of Commando Hi-score is amazing !

[MrGammable]

Nice invention. You should sell them and get rich.

[9Mateu]

GENIUS

2ND EDISON

[jci10]

@9Mateu Edison was a thief of many poor, European scientists. Calling someone "Edison" is an insult.

[9Mateu]

@jci10 Oh, i'm really sorry. I don't knew it.

[Everyoungsoul]
