Just curious about the limits of the envelop function and how to get the most out of it.

Using MML for NES music is a waste of time right now.

Would a tracker be a better option? I thought the music had to be in MML format to properly convert it for use in programming a game rom.

i used mml for pc-engine before deflemask and i think there still isn't an MSX tracker or maybe x68000 or pc9801 or?? dunno

dunno

@v0 = { 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 }
@v1 = { 15 15 14 14 13 13 12 12 11 11 10 10 9 9 8 8 7 7 6 6 }

and you're using quarter notes,
Does that mean that the entire envelope is compressed into the space of the quarter note?
Would v0 and v1 in the above example BOTH fit into the same space of one note?

So if the envelope was "15, 0, 15" then the empty "0" part would take up only a third of the time of the note, whereas if the envelope was "15, 0, 0, 15" the empty 0 would take up half the note?
Can the envelope be 30 numbers long? Are there limits?

Just trying to understand the envelope function a bit more.

I've read http://nesdev.com/mck_guide_v1.0.txt  but it didn't answer the question.
