The first actual tutorial in the I Fight Dragons tutorial series!
This tutorial is a very basic overview of how to use a gameboy to make chiptune. It provides an overall introduction to Little Sound DJ and a basis for future tutorials which will delve deeper into the program and how to make more advanced music.
@Quilabong You can transfer saves to/from your cartridge with the EMS flasher program using the "Read SRAM" and "Write SRAM" buttons. Emulator save files are compatible. (I've used OhBoy and VBA; both work perfectly.)

@Graystar18 Not too hard once you get the hang of things or have used a tracker like LGPT before.

@DaltonMunnal There's Famitracker for NES/Famicom and Defflemask and VGM Music Maker for the Genesis. These are trackers run on the PC, though.

@KokoEnFlanel Kitsch-Bent does sell some Gameboys with custom shells. They are even easier to get on Craigslist or even Ebay, though.

@RadicalPresident Well, the way to get that understanding is different for each person. But a multitude of things can help.
Do you play an instrument? If so, that'll help.
Have you written music before? Good understanding comes with experience.
Do you understand music theory? Even a little bit can go a long way. Learn scales to begin.
Hope that helps. But there's never a surefire answer to that question. It's all about practice and time.
