so i shorten every note by a 64th note. thus nothing touches. thus no skips.

I don't really know though big_smile  Maybe look at your NES CPU revision and compare to your friends.

Thats all i had at the time,  one midines. And when I record each channel in a separate take, there are no skipping notes. So again I assumed it was the midines that was getting overworked when all the channels are going at once.  I would never think it was the nintendo itself. I never heard of anyone having problems with the nintendo itself that it would cause that to happen.

So now I have a powerpak again, and played back a track (nsf), and it skipped the sample channel also. So yes now I know it is the nintendo, and not anything else. There was just no way for me to know. I'm sorry.

and I emailed you yesterday and am waiting to hear back rather than on chipmusic.org.   I just posted on here, to see if anyone has had this problem before, and any suggestions.

If you find another nes that you know works 100% feel free to send them both to me and i'll swap out the mods.

Every known working nes i've sent you has come back with an issue. I am trying to figure out how this keeps happening.

You should have emailed me the day you noticed it having issues rather then  months later.

um yea, I did. I tried 3 nintendos. They all work perfect. Only this particular one does it, and it has been doing that since the day I received it.

This is similar to when i buy games at thrift stores, the slightest vibration to the console ALMOST crashes it, but only enough to spaz for a second. Cleaning them always does the trick.

or maybe its some kind of voodoo spell that was cast or your nes to add that extra note in the sample channel ;)

its fine when i record these songs for real, and i record each channel as a separate take... it can handle one channel playing at a time.

I have a nintendo that seems to add notes and skip notes in the sample channel at random. This whole time I thought it was the midines getting confused. But I received my powerpak today, and tried some nsfs I made on that same NES and it skips as well. So then I tried another stock nes (just a plain old nintendo i have as a backup), and no skipping with either midines, or powerpak.  So weird, has anyone heard of this happening? The actual soundchip skipping/adding notes in the sample channel.. ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
