Personally I think it's a fantastic chip. Maybe it would be better to just seperate it from Defle as it's own little tracker?
You should separate it I think. Make a YMU759 tracker and keep Deflemask for the rest. Shouldn't be hard to maintain the two specially since the YMU tracker has such a small user base that you will not get that many user requests or anything like that.
I managed to separate all of the YMU stuff of the main DefleMask's core, the YMU has his own files now. Then YMU759 will stay inside DefleMask for now, fully functional in Windows and without emulator feedback in others OS.
Now I will boot into Ubuntu to finish some final points of the Linux build.

DefleMask updated!-
CHANGES:
01: Due to a HUGE and AWESOME track done by Chip Champion for Battle Of The Bits I realized that the memory allocation was very slow, I speed it up a lot by using blocks of memory instead of individual requests.
02: Re-enabled the note previewing, it was disabled to debugging.
03: Fixed a bug in the Load Files menu under Linux.

DefleMask is going better and more compatible, I updated it and now it works in all Linux distributions without those sound problems that some users suffered!.
NEWS:
01: Fixed incompatibility issues with the sound in some Linux's Distributions.
02: Fixed a frequency calculation error in the noise channel of the Game Boy (both Windows and Linux builds).
03: Removed SDL.dll from the Linux Build, it was in the package due to a mistake.
i'm realy happy about linux version
thanks so much delek xxx you are doing great things for all chiptuners
I need your feedback in a very hard decision for me: cutting off the support of the YMU759.
I think supporting obscure chips is cool BUT I think the best thing for the project if you you to spend as much of your time as you can supporting the more popular chips. This will get you work to a wider range of people!
DefleMask 7f released!, Game Boy ROM BUILDER FTWWWWW!!.

01: Game Boy ROM and GBS Exporter! (remember always to use an accurate Game Boy Emulator, such as Visual Boy Advance, or the actual Hardware!).

This is awesome! Why has no one commented on this yet?
I'm working in a more standard way of change the volume dinamically in the Game Boy. Some emulators are not compatible with the current way. Because you can't simply change the volume while a note is sounding in this Nintendo console, I have to use hacks that works on the real hardware. I'm doing heavy testing right now. Wish me luck.:p
An update is coming with even better GB and GBS exporting.

Peace

Ah, that explains it. I was hopin for compatibility with foogep so I can export wave files...I guess I'll have to wait!
Would it be possible to export a Game Boy tune in a way that would make it usable in GBDK?
