** No video games themselves were sampled. The synthesis from vintage hardware sound chips was sampled. Plus, this app uses a "real" on board synth engine. This app does not sample any Nintendo, Super Nintendo, Sega, or Gameboy games. Nor does it have any affiliation with any of the companies or trademarks. We respect their pioneering work in sound design and have attempted to pay homage. We hope you enjoy the sounds and are able to be inspired! :)

Incredible App for Video Game Soundfonts!
I had recently bought the Bundle for both the SNES and SAGA Apps, i gotta say it’s a blast playing around with the keyboard, but i was wondering if i could know how to set it up to garage band, i have a midi i’d like to use and i want to convert the Soundfont. If you could reply with some instructions that’d be great!

So much 16-bit fun!
Another reviewer said it so well: You can start with the over 400 presets, or you can take your sounds to the next level in programming your own sounds! The sounds included are so retro, as found in 1980s video games, but in 2024, one can make these sounds into stereo pans, plus reverb, delay… the possibilities are seemingly endless! So what are you waiting for? Download immediately! And know that you will pay all of ONE time only, with no subscription renewals! EXCELLENT VALUE! Thank you once again, AudioKit!
