Apparently there's a GB accessory/mod called the Arduinoboy that enables MIDI on the GB. There also seem to be an LSDJ one.
Also :

OIC. That could explain it. :) Gotta check out those other vids. His stuff is pretty nice. :D

He states in the description he uses FL Studio and Avid Pro Tools together with some 8-bit plugins (Plogue Chipsounds and Sytrus) and his Korg R3 plugged in as a MIDI controller, meaning he can literally control FL Studio with his Korg. It's not quite hard to do with the right software and hardware, I do exactly that sometimes when I feel like playing some piano.

It's also possible to do that with LSDJ, but it'd probably require you to plug and solder some wires to your Gameboy.

I finally cleared my sig after 4 years you're happy now?

Don't forget the GB has a link port.
Also, he uses a modded Gameboy anyway. ;)

Information : Game Boy's soundchip is actually 4bit.
Let's jump to 8 and hear this:

A lot of so-called 8 bit stuff on Youtube are just MIDI's converted through GXSCC. Some tunes sound better via GXSCC but most will suck unless you made the MIDI yourself and specifically for use with GXSCC.

Wait so the GBA too has 4bit music. O.O It has the two PWM channels though. I think the voice in Metroid Fusion uses them.

if the GBA is only 4 bits, then that might explain the horrible sound quality in some GBA ports of SNES/Sega games.

The Horrible? Nononono, you mixed all : GBA, as SNES have 16bit soundchip. Game Boy (and Color) does have 4bit channels. The GBA has a worse sound than SNES because the soundchip isn't the same and is a cheaper one.

FUn fact : the SNES soundchip is a Sony one, did you guess why the GBA doesn't have one? (Hint : PlaySomething contract between Nintendo and Sony has been broken and thus they became "ennemies".)

AFAIK the GBA has the GB/GBC audio hardware accessible through the z80 (used by some games) + 2 PWM channels. At least that's what Willrandship told me. :P

Nintendo and Sony wanted to make a CD drive for the Nintendo 64, it later been cancelled and Sony went ahead and made their own console with a CD drive, the PlayStation.
