Last time I tried FDS audio on my US NES (with a powerpak and the expansion mod), it wasn't emulated very well. It was pretty out of tune. Does anyone know if that's something that's been improved upon sometime in the last several months or so?
]]>i opened up the VRC7 instrument editor and just said oh my god over and over again
yes man, same here! i went totally nuts when i had my first look at it!
]]>Some news in this version:
VRC7 & FDS support
New effect Sxx, cut note after xx frames
New effect Xxx, DPCM retrigger, xx = delay in frames
Fixed a bug that caused files with 64 instruments to not load
Fixed export bug where instruments with empty sequences caused the exported file to not work
Added an option to remove unused instruments & patterns
Load/save instrument & DPCM paths bug on Windows Vista & 7 fixed
Fixed the tracker/nsf inconcistency when note delay and speed change was used on the same row
DPCM file preview added
CTRL+click in frame editor to queue next frame (order) when playing
Copy & paste in frame editor. Ctrl+C to copy a row and Ctrl+V to paste
Added the note release command, setup a key in the settings window. The release-part of sequences is defined by a '/' in the sequence string (or right click in the loop-setting-part of the sequence editor).
Vibrato is now bending both up and down. The old style is still selectable to maintain compability with older files. (not completely done yet)
Fixed a bug that caused noise to skip a frame in some conditionsA more complete list of changes is included. The help files are not updated, but I'll release this as the next version once those are done.
Most things are supposed to work now, except for VRC7 pitch bends which does not work as supposed and not at all in exported NSFs. I still need to find a good way to do it on the OPLL chip. The old style vibrato needs some tweaking before it sounds exactly like before.
If you find any other problems, please post them here so I can fix it before the stable release. Thanks!
