I'm glad it helped, JeffC. I noticed it because you were using note cuts with volume control to do some kind of a short beat; the only thing that stop the noise from spattering on top of sustained notes was the fact that the speed & tempo was too slow with respect to the spacing between notes. So, the next best thing would be to use an effect to achieve a rapid volume fade.
And to give you a heads-up about this forum; whenever it has difficulty loading something after you make a post, don't click on the Send button again because it will send the post again. Instead, you'll have to wait until the page craps out & then refresh. If only this forum were updated.
nicetas_c; even though it's not accurate, it's still top-notch music. I guess you might as well call it a remix instead of a cover & be proud of your high quality work anyways.

Sorry, JeffC, if ya feel inadequate by everyone's postings.
As another new user to famitracker I find it duanting looking at current uploads of ftms (everyone friggin' takes off using VRC6).
I thought it'd be more inspiring for the both of us if we see others' less developed tracking techniques, or, at least their earliest ones.
I know I found that NoobAges folder useful for learning (especially the metroid covers). I hope some other ftms here also helped you.
Promising certainly is promising. I like the progression thingymabob there.

the square 1 might very well sound better with 0xy than with 4xx, but the filename "arp" actually has nothing to do with square 1. I named it that when I was doing the triangle bass.
Edit: I think I'm getting better at using the basic commands...I want to start doing actual songs now and experimenting with using instruments.
I'm surprised at how fast you've actually picked up the basic commands (& this is coming from a guy who still hasn't picked up hardware sweeps the arpeggio effect).

Alright now; you know how to achieve the basic (& intermediate) effects. But how well do you know your Do-Re-Mis?
That last clip you posted is a good (but very short) example of how to organize your notes in a smooth-flowing way because the notes of each channel complement each other.
As long as you can play notes that can complement each other in a decent manner, then you know how to compose basic music. Combine it with your knowledge of effects & you know how to create true music.
