This might be true in some limited form. I can imaging someone might try sacrificing volume for more head room and putting 2 separate octave squares on one frame instead of one like I'm doing, but there is this annoying little thing called exponential growth that I suspect would make it a nightmare to manage and implement.

As far as being too low in fidelity, I'd say no. But the for the average lister the answer is probably yes. But that's something of a feature in chipmusic, not a hinderance. To be able to create lovely sounds regardless of sound quality and hardware limitations is the whole charm to this artform. I still find 4 bit samples pleasing to listen too. I get good results from 4 bit c64 samples and NES stuff doesn't sound too terrible. I'd say go for it. I've had an urge to upload some chord stabs into lsdj and rejoice in the free polyphony. Haven't gotten 'round to it though.

Sweet! Thank you!!

So If I wanted to patch my rom with c64,mario,and terminus, how would I go about performing those patches? Do I patch one rom several times in order to obtain all three on one rom? If what I'm asking is possible can you give me a brief walkthrough on how to perform it?

I noticed that these new download have separate .ips files for each slot. If this is the key to customizing my three available slots, would you please separate the mrio/putr/pixl fonts in this fashion as well?

MSSIAH is very well put together. Standard piano roll for note inputs, virtual knobs on most parameters, midi controllable/syncable. The only pain as mentioned before is saving. Floppy disks are a hassle and slow. If you know how to solder it's a terrific option. Cause don't assume you can use this cart with zero modification. You just can't. The software relies on potentiometers to control the virtual knobs. You MUST install these pots yourself to the user ports. Also if you want the most out of it you will want to put together a SID2SID expansion by ordering a PCB from the site as well. This will give you 6 channels instead of only three. Another downside is the availability of fairly priced Commodore 64's out there. It has gotten way out of hand on ebay. I've seen systems for $100+   In my opinion $40 is reasonably fair. $50 if it's clean and has power supply, but don't expect to find this type of pricing cause people these days stop caring about fair.

Oh I didn't even see this reply. Yeah my last comment was towards nordloef. and I never knew that. I guess I just never attemted it . So I take back what I said about groove not affecting tables. I never really came across a desire to attempt G's within tables. Also, I see what you mean about chain/phrase conservation. I guess I've got a lot of homework to do now.

If I'm not mistaken, each step on the table screen equal one tick and one step on the phrase screen equals the number of tics designated by the groove. Which in my example, the kick only used 3 table steps, and the kick instrument occupied only one phrase step. So since my phrase was running on a groove of 3/3 each phrase step was only 3 ticks long. Am I missing something?

You're right about the E2 E7 thing. It's just a workflow preference for me.

I didn't see it as a rant. I find most all feedback helpful, an appreciate it all. but thank you for considering my feelings/reactions to your comments.
