modifications and improvements for j0CC-FamiTracker 0.6.3

Modifications for j0CC-FamiTracker 0.6.3

Don't expect a lot here, just tiny improvements that personally help my workflow for creating modules.

Additions (so far)

• DPCM sample bit order reversal
• Adaptable register state refresh rate depending on playback (≈60fps on playback, otherwise 10fps)
• Multitrack per-channel export

Plans

• Adjustable maximum register state refresh rate
• Multichannel wav export (multiple channels inside one .wav file)
• Muting a channel won't disable its sound output (and so have nonlinear mixing which is separated linearly)
• Panning? (when the above item is fulfilled, it will pave the way for panning similar to NSFPlay)

Shutting down

0.6.3 is the final release. This program has been effectively dead for months to years, as my priorities have moved elsewhere, to building a new tracker from scratch, freed from MFC and being chained to Win32, freed from DirectSound and 40-70 ms of audio latency, freed from a fixed row grid that falls apart as soon as you try to use triplets...

Additionally I can't let this program continue under its current name. I can't have people talking to me about the program under its current name. I should've renamed the program earlier, but never picked one.

I invite the community to fork the program, possibly under a name like FamiTracker-Next. I may participate if I regain interest.

This is a fork of HertzDevil's 0CC-Famitracker 0.3.14.5 (since 0.3.15.1 and master are quite buggy and changing rapidly). It contains bugfixes which HertzDevil has not merged yet (some for months, some fixed independently in 0.3.15.1 or master), as well as N163 multi-wave copy-paste support.

Bugfixes:

• Export N163 FTI instruments properly.
• Don't corrupt memory when entering MML volume sequences over 252 items long (instead truncate).
• Fix bug where find-replacing anything with an empty effect creates " 00" effect.
• Fix text import instrument loop/release (@owomomo, fixed in 0.3.15.1).
• Update channel count after importing text (like master). Mark file as modified.

Enhancements:

• N163 file-specific mixing level offset.
• Typing Pxx (or FDS Zxx) defaults to P80.
• N163 wave editor's copy/paste buttons copy all waves at once, separated/terminated with semicolons. This allows for highly efficient Audacity-N163 import workflows (see https://gist.github.com/nyanpasu64/424110eab84dad50cf1a6646a72b2627).
• Save TXT export path properly.
• Hi-res FFT spectrogram (like master).

Future changes:

• Exponential instrument volume decay or release (like ADSR), and possibly an effect.
• Warn when editing instrument sequences reused in many instruments, or patterns appearing in many frames.

0CC-FamiTracker

0CC-FamiTracker is a modified version of FamiTracker that incorporates various bug fixes and new features which work in exported NSFs as well. The name "0CC" comes from the author's favourite arpeggio effect command. The current version includes:

• Partial FamiTracker 0.5.0 beta support
• Sound engine extensions:
  • Ad-hoc multichip NSF export
  • Echo buffer access
  • Polyphonic note preview
• New effects:
  • Hardware volume envelope effects
  • Delayed channel effects
  • FDS automatic FM effects
  • N163 wave buffer access effect
• Instrument extensions:
  • Arpeggio schemes
  • Instrument recorder
  • Compatible sequence instruments
• Interface extensions:
  • Find / replace tab
  • Transpose dialog
  • Split keyboard
• Extra module contents:
  • Detune settings
  • Groove settings
  • Bookmark manager
  • Linear pitch mode

The current build is based on the version 0.5.0 beta 5 release of the official FamiTracker. 0CC-FamiTracker will be ported to newer official releases once they become available; features added in 0CC-FamiTracker may not have identical behaviour as the corresponding features on the official branch.
