MajiKool Blingâ„¢: I'm pretty much set up to build; I'm even a c250 user. If I can find out how to add beatbox to the SUBDIRS, I'll make a build for you and post it somewhere (not on the Rockbox site, though) or e-mail it to you.

Be aware that I have a few patches applied (but they have not been causing problems for me) and that to keep Beatbox working, I'll have to build for you every time you want to update.

EDIT: I believe I found the place: /rockbox/apps/plugins/SUBDIRS in the subverion folder:

--- Code: ---#if !defined(IRIVER_IFP7XX_SERIES)

/* For all targets */
shortcuts
beatbox
--- End code ---

However, when making, I got this output:

--- End code ---

This is definitely unfinished code, and it seems to lack c200 keymaps at that. I haven't tried testing the build yet, but I suspect Beatbox is too incomplete and out of date to be usable. :(


A little searching revealed this alternative, a Game Boy sequencer: http://www.littlesounddj.com/lsd/

I will test the build shortly and report back.

LambdaCalculus:
The Beatbox code is outright decrepit at this point in time. No one has worked on it for quite some time now.

My friend had this, or something similar, on his real-life Gameboy and it was quite effective.  Unfortunately, my understanding is that audio in the Rockboy emulator is not working properly, leaving a rather large gap in this game's usefulness.

i've also found this and have been trying it out for the past day or two. :)

this is very true... the output sound is very choppy and broken up. :(

The little sound dj is basically what i'm looking for(though i would also like the ability to use/add my own sampled sounds).
so... if beatbox no worky, could someone make a plugin like LSDJ.

Also keep in mind Strife89... i mainly use my e260R.(Though i would still appreciate having it built for my c250 so i could at least try it out :))
though if some thing like this were to be made or perfected(in the case of beatbox) it would need to be ported to other players such as your c250. sorry, this line wasn't necessary.

Strife89:
I built an e200 simulator, but Beatbox refused to show up. Given that it's ancient code anyway, I doubt it's worth pursuing the plugin any further unless someone wants to (and can) work on it.

I wish I could help you more. Sorry, man. :(
