Pixelh8 - Music Tech Game Boy

The Pixelh8 Music Tech Game Boy Synthesizer is a cartridge that fits into an unmodified game boy, enabling you to be able to control the game boys on board sound. You can edit the wave duty, pitch sweep and volume envelope as well as new additions such as unison, 5th power chords and octaves.  It was originally designed by Pixelh8 as an on the go composition/jamming tool and was later offered to fellow musicians in a limited run of 100 handmade cartridges.

Notable owners of the original limited edition cartridge. Imogen Heap (click to see video) , Damon Albarn & David E. Sugar.
