So the basic 20A3 need in memory is like 150 bytes? Other parts are added if the songs uses some specific features? how does it work? Does it include part for sfx too? Hi. I'm not sure where you got the 150 from? Looking at the tables, if you use the minimal feature set, I read 129 bytes (that incl...

I'm going to download this right away!

Thanks for the support. Send any feedback (either about the app or the sound engine itself) my way!

Hello! I usually stick to the music forum for my announcements, but this is something NES devs in general might be interested in : an official FamiStudio sound engine. If you have been living under a rock, FamiStudio is a DAW-style NES music editor, it has tons of features: Modern DAW-style UI with ...

FamiStudio 2.2.0 was just released. New features: Recording mode to record note-by-note using MIDI controller or QWERTY keyboard Arpeggio support Official FamiStudio Sound Engine release Follow mode Displaying the piano roll view range in the sequencer FDS disk export Basic tutorials for first time ...

Good to hear. Does it warn you if you uses options not supported by the driver? The FamiStudio sound engine supports 100% of the feature FamiStudio supports. The driver evolved with the app over the last year. I always needed it for the NSF and ROM export anyway. But your question might mean someth...

Yes. The FamiStudio sound endine is a FamiTone2 derivative, so it will use the exact same SFX architecture as the original one (I did a lot of work on the music part, nothing on the SFX part). You can play SFX for all 4 main channels, and have up to 4 streams (more streams = more RAM needed). Mixing...

Still, there is not many sound driver just: - famitracker/famitone sfx - famitone - pently - gsound - Bleubleu one, soon I guess? (sfx possible?) - ? (maybe a few that I forget?) That's also pretty much all the ones i know of too. The wiki mentions the one Brad did for Lizard and another one called...

Thanks man. That was also my conclusion

In the end, I reworked my code to avoid having an indexer as a macro parameter and its probably for the best.

Hi! I'm cleaning up the FamiStudio sound engine and porting it to NESASM + ASM6. Like most of us, I tend to abuse CA65 macros and there is one thing i have not been able to do in ASM6 : have an optional indexer passed as a parameter. .macro test offset, indexer lda var + offset indexer .endmacro Whi...

Ok thanks guys. That already gives me a couple of hints on what to check. Ill run some more test to see a pattern where this happens where there top is mostly black. I'll also try to double check the voltages, i am running off a 9V ac adapter (as opposed to 10V that it should be) although everything...

Hi! I recently got myself a FDS RAM adapter + FDS stick. Everything works great except a few rare games where a certain fraction of the top of the screen is wavy or misaligned. For example, here in the FDS version of Zelda, up to about 1/3 of the screen is misaligned. Some screens of the zelda map a...

This is super exciting to me. Cant believe we discover that kind of stuff after 30+ years!

Already added to FamiStudio 2.2.0!

Hi! I'm no FamiTracker expert, but since no-one has replied let me try to help. The text exporter itself seem to be in 1 cpp + 1 header, the coupling with the rest of the app seem very small. Basically hooked up to the menu of the main window (which might be different in Qt than in MFC). The only is...

FamiStudio 2.1.0 was just released. New features: First Linux release Trackpad controls Note snapping in the piano roll New time format (MM:SS:mmm) Command-line interface Import of instruments from any supported format Duplication of patterns in the sequencer Mix paste Improved WAV export FamiTone2 ...

That's an NSF. Dont you have a FTM (FamiTracker) or FMS (FamiStudio) file? An NSF is like the end product, its not something you would ever want to use to make a game. Once a song is in NSF, it is basically code. It no longer has any high-level information (instruments, etc.). It not something you w...
