you know you can mute and export each channel separately in famitracker right?

it might be just me, but i honestly havent noticed THAT much of a difference between exporting to .wav from NSF and exporting directly from famitracker.

I haven't tried it in 0.3.6 - that didn't work in 0.3.5. Muting the tracks did nothing to the resulting NSF. I did indeed work on WAV exporting though. Again I have tried neither in 0.3.6, to be fair.

As far as the NES not sounding that much different, tune your ears smile The NES sounds noticeably different than FamiTracker. Not in all cases, mind you, but the squares have quite a bit more character is one thing I have spotted multiple times. When using the VRC6, I like the sound of the PowerPak's emulation of FamiTrackers as well. Check these to hear a quick comparison - the squares are immediately noticeable.

Regardless, it's principle smile Which, I know, in some ways is a bit hypocritical since the whole goal is to record each individual NES channel so I can do post mixing on it. It's sort of required though for some things (like the triangle) in order to end up having a proper mix with other instruments.

EDIT: Just tried exporting an NSF from FamiTracker 0.3.6 with muted channels and the results are as I described - all channels are written out and unmuted.

hahha youre just being picky :] i guess for me the emulation is close enough to where i dont see the need to add an extra step, but regardless, its up to you.

have you tries NSFLive yet?
