I'm not even sure when I'll do a minor bug fix release which is certainly needed.

Changes in FM/PSG balance are one of considered things, it is often asked and should be done in the next version.

Also, amplitude decay time defined by the ADSR envelope, it easily can be set to seconds or inifinite, and that is actually useful - so even if there would be a way to detect the amplitude, such approach would not work.

I don't see any way to get rid of the popping automatically. As wedanced say, it could be done manually.

Wouldn't that stop the popping? Or am I babbling nonsense again?

Just open up the default instrument, change operator 2's TL to 127, and run the mouse up and down the keyboard to hear what I'm talking about. I've tried messing with the buffer count, size, and overall volume, but it still happens.

I'm making a little genesis demo just 4 fun, looking for a .tfd (fm only / no samples), open to every style, even unfinished music smile
Thanks.

This program might just be my next stop...

1. Do an "Advanced" transpose on any note
2. Hit Ctrl-Z

A "Floating point division by zero" error message will pop up, and the program will break.

Is the first bug is also connected to the step size?

1. On occasion, after opening a saved VGE file (or play a row right after opening one), VGM MM will crash (stopped working). Attempting to re-open the same song will continue to crash it every time, and either creating a new module or opening a different module will fix it.

2. I just encountered this yesterday, but at some point I was editing a song and hit CTRL-Z to undo something I was working on. I got a error message saying something along the lines of "Divide by zero exception", and after hitting OK, I got an overflow error message of some sort. Also, all of the rows were filled up with 0xFFFFFFFF values and other such junk. I'll try to see if I can't reproduce it consistently and report steps to reproduce.

EDIT: Figured it out. If you set the step size to something larger than the pattern size, then try to add notes, it just goes crazy.
