That's pretty good. However, I'm still struggling to make decent DMC files that plays C# in different octaves, as triangle waveforms. If anyone has a tutorial of some sort that I can use to create my own DMC file that actually sounds proper, drop me a line!

Well.... it's amazing what you can manipulate the limits of DPCM to do for you. I also made something demonstrating such limitation exploiting, but I'm using it in a community project at POM.net, no peekies.
EDIT: Made a very realistic noise guitar *tribute to POM.net, to where I have been banned for a week* and did a simple tune, added DPCM. Notice how when the Snare hits, the guitar is quieter. Makes for a nice echo effect, if you can find anything louder that you wouldn't notice or would tie in with the song. Though, it is used for echo here.

Sorry about that; Kurobit made the 3 C natural samples, while Rushjet1 made only 1 C# sample.
As for the looping problem, I've noticed it when I made that transcription of the Father Ted opening theme; when the samples are looped, they eventually mute themselves out. That's why they shouldn't be used for sustained notes (what I had to do to sustain the notes was to replay the same note a second time, right at the point the first note dies down).
I've also noticed that something in the DPCM channel also mutes out the sample (but I don't know exactly what's triggering it).

Like this one?
It is possible that the delta counter goes all the way to 7E~7F but does not make its way back, so the counter sticks around 7A~7E.
Looped PCM samples screw up in NSF players if mod(size,16)=1.
Yes; you just hammered the nail there, nicetas_c. I just tried it out; one note in one NSF for a continuous loop. Indeed, it not only failed in the NSF player, but the loop also failed in FamiTracker.
Anyways, I was actually looking for some higher-octave C# samples to go along with the C natural samples that Kurobit created.
The octave 3 C natural sample that Kurobit made goes well with the octave 3 C# sample from Rushjet1, but sadly, there are no octave 4 or octave 5 versions of C# around. If anyone's willing to create some (or to at leach point me to the right direction about creating them properly,) please drop me a line.
