Minor nitpick: volume slider is unstyled in Firefox. Great web app otherwise, I love shuffle play feature.

#92What is playing this back? When using the inspector, I see it actually downloads the .mid file. I didn't grant Chrome access to my MIDI devices (not that I'd have any connected) and it was still playing the audio. Is it playing it back with some internal samples and a playback feature, relaying it to the OS, or is this a Javascript player? -- Oh wait, I just turned on the Visualizer, which makes me think that this is…
MIDI playback does not require a device and is baked into the OS via QuickTime's synthesizer and Microsoft GS Wavetable Synth.

#93Earlier quoted context omitted.
Yeah, it’s a bit strange omission.
Playing samples in patterns and computing coded sound are completely different efforts.
But the site already has tons of tracker music, as well as other not-strictly-chiptunes like an incredible number of .mid versions of classical music and contemporary pop songs of all things.

#95I see there's an Project AY folder, but will there come any Atari ST tunes? I'm specifically wondering about The Union Demo by The Union (1989), including intro from The Carebears, and many more.

#96I can confirm this is the real deal by its inclusion of my favorite soundtrack: Donkey Kong Country.

#97I see that some of the files came with a "txt" link that shows some credit info, which is nice. But I can't find any credits for the site itself, is that intentional?

#98very cool I like the UI. Wish it had the catalog from keygenjukebox do net though.
Re: Chiptune.app
#99The classical piano pieces sound great in the Pianoteq VST.
Where is that option? It's not in the list of SoundFonts that I see.

Tracker files: audio samples as instruments played by a table of notes and variations.
MIDI files: a table of notes and variations for playing default samples for instruments.
Chip synthesis programs: code that generates sequences of sounds, requiring some specific synth engine.
The former two have a radically different (lack of) complexity compared to the latter...
