I will be fully focused in the Mac port right now, my Linux VM was corrupted due to a Hard Disk failure, so I was fighting with this rather than getting Mac to boot. So, for now, I can release this update with both Linux and Windows builds:

DefleMask 8 Update 4 arrived to improve even more the workflow!.

NEWS:
UPDATE 4 (@ 23/09/12):
Added new shortcuts: Ctrl+Left/Right to swap between channels.
Now while editing effects the cursor will move to the next effect value rather than go downwards.
Now you can move the Instrument Editor Window with Alt+Up/Down, now the users without a mouse wheel should scroll it fine.
Now you can use Shift+Enter to play only the current pattern.
Now you can control the Sliders with the mouse wheel, this give you more precise control for them (for example, in the pattern matrix position).
Now the artist name and song name are correctly stored in rom files of NES and Game Boy.
Changed the Next/Previous Instrument shortcut to Alt+Left/Right, in order to avoid conflicts with the Selection (previously it was Shift+Left/Right).
Fixed the Full Screen crash, now you can press Alt+Enter and DefleMask will appear in Full Screen mode.
Fixed a bug in Genesis that was present after loading some type of presets.
Fixed a bug after loading a DMF that was causing to load incorrectly the Pitch and Amp of the Samples.
Fixed the relation between EDxx (note delay) and other effects.
Fixed a crash while using Step 0.
Both Linux and Windows builds updated.
Manual Updated.

DOWNLOAD!

EDIT: Well, my Core2Duo E4400 don't have Intel® Virtualization Technology (VT-x), and it is required to run Mac OS X in Virtual Box.

DefleMask Updated to fix some stuff of the NES.

NEWS:
Fixed a bankswitching bug in the NSF Exporter.
Fixed a bug in the change volume command in NES that was causing a change in the duty cycle.
Fixed a bug in the noise channel mode of the NES.
Now you can listen to sub-A1 frequencies in the exported files of the NES.
Now you control the noise of the NES using 2 octaves to reach all possible frequencies.
Added some checks to prevent redundant writes to the output files.
Demo Song added to SEGA Genesis: Devo - Gates Of Steel.
Both Linux and Windows builds updated.

EDIT: Also I included a track from Yu-Gi-Oh on NES, done by jrlepage and also fixed a potential crash while changing the pitch of the samples.

NSFPlay was updated to support the DefleMask's NSFs (btw, they work on the actual hardware).

Btw, due to awesome feedback, this minor details has been added to DefleMask to improve the workflow:

Now you can use step 0 if you want, this will prevent the cursor to move, but you can enter notes in the selected row.
Now if you set a new instrument in the patterns, that instrument will be automatically selected from the instrument list.
Fixed a bug with the EF effect.

Personally, because of the same reason that have the painters or photographers to done pictures using only black & white: limitation, purity and to catch the core of what you want to transmit; mixed with lot of nostalgia coming from childhood.

I never used LSDJ, but it have something like a Waveform Macro/Envelope?, in order to switch rapidly the data and then obtain a more complex waveform.

I do not understand. It is a tracker for the GBA that uses the standard GB capabilities?. I readed somewhere that you can't access to the internal Z80 using a GBA game, because there is a hardware lock in the cartridge socket. Or it is a GBA tracker that uses the GBA chip to make a sound like the old Z80?.

The Saturn soundchip is a great machine. After SID and NES I think that Saturn will be the next.
