I have no particular opinion on FM. The only thing that worries me is like you say: if klystrack starts doing too much, it'll start being less oldschool/chippy and more of a DAW-ish thing.

I totally agree but I think 2op FM still falls pretty much into the oldschool/chippy area.

Also.. instead of converting some FX busses to 'masters', you should just let every instrument export to all FX busses. You just toggle which busses it sends to... like [ ]1  [ ] 2  [ ] 3  [ ] 4 etc. That way people can make their own, and as many master channels as they want, and it also opens the door for some creative FX work.

Seconded!

And a simple live mode. Load two songs side by side, each with a volume fader. That's it smile

Allso agreed, hotkeys for channel muting would be nice if we are talking live mode too.

Sure. I don't think it needs to be particularly complex, Basing the FM on the OPL1 seems like a nice philosophical continuation seeing as the C64 had an expansion with one. The OPL1 doesn't seems particularly well documented but I am guessing it only has one wave form (sine) so something like this would probably be fine

1 Carrier sine-wave osc with, ADSR, Multiplier (pitch) and volume. 
1 Modulator sine-wave osc with, ADSR, Multiplier (pitch), volume and feedback

and a pattern command for Modulator volume.

That would be about it unless you wanted to get into something more complicated which you probably don't need more than that. If you were able to add in volume and pitch for the other oscillators (seeing as you need both for FM or it doesn't really work) that would be fantastic!

Yeah it is totally a huge help already.

I am glad you are thinking about FM a bit, I am a HUGE FM fan, opl3 is probably my favorite soundchip tied with SID...

Awesome I actually saw this about ten minutes ago. Already downloaded its super helpful! Especially the pattern commands. If you could pair this with a more friendly 64 step, 4 channel default song I think it would be ultra friendly for new users Thanks loads, its great you are still working on the project.

Are you still open to requests?

I would die for FM and a live mode!

That might be groovy! I actually have a n00b request. One of my favorite features of Adlib Tracker II was the F1 key to bring up a list of all the pattern commands and keyboard shortcuts. Would this be possible to add in for new users?

Edit - Actually, how about F1 once for commands, F1 again for Keyboard shortcuts and F1 a this time to close the cheat sheet window?

That would be kind of handy. would adjustable volumes for the different oscillators be possible? also a way to name patterns in the arrangement screen would be awesome for keeping songs organised!

Really happy you are back into the project!

I think I might have been a little behind, there have been a few little touches added since I last updated.

Delek I wonder if you would be interested in a couple of feature requests.

- "Continuous paste" ctrl + key = paste current selection to end of pattern. Really useful if you have a 16 step drum look you are happy with and want to fill a whole pattern with it.

- Operator mute. would need 4 keys, maybe F9 - F12 = turns off individual operators from instrument screen. This is a common feature on most of the yamaha FM synths and it is really useful for FM sound design.

- Pattern preview - show the upcoming pattern "greyed out" below the currently playing pattern, makes transitions a bit smoother!

LOVE the software by the way. Its fantastic.
