FamiTracker
Since nicetas_c is no longer with us, I'll take it upon myself to maintain a requests list for FT 0.3.7b. Plus, that way I can sticky it and prevent it from being buried.

I record (some) NSFs on hardware. Feel free to [url=http://www.famitracker.com/forum/posts.php?id=3633]request a hardware render.
[size=5]Sorry about the double-post, but that's the only way I can edit the list without the topic being permanently un-stickied. :s
So far we have:
1. [url=http://famitracker.shoodot.net/forum/posts.php?id=1717&pid=13436#13436]Note release effect (like Sxx but releases the note instead of cutting it).
2. [url=http://famitracker.shoodot.net/forum/posts.php?id=1717&pid=13436#13436]Select multiple areas simultaneously with CTRL + drag.
3. [url=http://famitracker.shoodot.net/forum/posts.php?id=1717&pid=13436#13436]Export MIDI.
4. [url=http://famitracker.shoodot.net/forum/posts.php?id=1717&pid=13454#13454]Transpose effect.
5. [color=green][i]MML data for VRC7 instruments (in the format [b]{ $xx $xx $xx $xx $xx $xx $xx $xx }[/b] ), updated in realtime, plus ability to view instrument & MML data for preset patches.[/i] [b](added in 0.3.7)[/b]
6. [url=http://famitracker.shoodot.net/forum/posts.php?id=1717&pid=13456#13456]Separate effects for volume slide up and down (such as Mxx and Nxx for up and down, respectively), each with a range of 0 - 255.
7a. [color=green][i]N106 support.[/i] [b](Added in 0.3.8)[/b]
7b. [url=http://famitracker.shoodot.net/forum/posts.php?id=1717&pid=13459#13459]FME7 support.
8. [url=http://famitracker.shoodot.net/forum/posts.php?id=1717&pid=13460#13460]Add a new 'Export to WAV' selection 'play for [] frames'
9. [url=http://famitracker.shoodot.net/forum/posts.php?id=1717&pid=13460#13460]Hardware decay
10. [url=http://famitracker.shoodot.net/forum/posts.php?id=1717&pid=13460#13460]Triangle linear counter
11. [url=http://famitracker.shoodot.net/forum/posts.php?id=1717&pid=13701#13701]Phase reset (more details in xolroc's post! :))
12. [color=green][i]"Open one instance of FamiTracker" option in settings.[/i] [b](added in 0.3.7)[/b]
Those are from the old thread. Here are some new ones:
13. Tab/Shift+Tab skips to the same column as cursor's current position (say you have the cursor on the volume column, then hit Tab, the cursor would land on the next channel's volume column instead of the note column). If some people object to this, it could be made an option instead of a feature.
14. (In distant future) Ability to use more than one extra sound chip at a time, via a checkbox-type expansion selection in the module properties.
15. Making the empty square above the row numbers and left to the channel names mute/unmute all channels.
16. [url=http://famitracker.shoodot.net/forum/posts.php?id=1891&pid=15347#15347]A panning effect (Txx, where T80 is centre, T00 full left and TFF full right).
17. [url=http://famitracker.shoodot.net/forum/posts.php?id=1891&pid=15330#15330]Fix Pxx bug for VRC6 (where P81 acts as P80, P82 as P81 and so on).
18. [url=http://famitracker.shoodot.net/forum/posts.php?id=1891&pid=15454#15454]Use Vxx to change VRC7 instrument and FDS wave (which could be defined somewhere else in famitracker rather than in an instrument.)
19. [url=http://famitracker.shoodot.net/forum/posts.php?id=1891&pid=15454#15454]Assign VRC7 and FDS parameters to new effects.

22. [url=http://famitracker.shoodot.net/forum/posts.php?id=1891&pid=15455#15455]Combine/reassign obsolete effects (such as Cxx and Exx), and [url=http://famitracker.shoodot.net/forum/posts.php?id=1891&pid=15530#15530]introduce backwards-compatibility for old files being opened in a new version of FT.
23. [url=http://famitracker.shoodot.net/forum/posts.php?id=1891&pid=15833#15833]Make row highlight sub-song specific.

26. [url=http://famitracker.shoodot.net/forum/posts.php?id=1891&pid=16118#16118]New legato effect: Xxx. X00 turns it off. Values of X01-XFE could be speed of portamento. XFF could be only the effect with no portamento.
[url=http://famitracker.shoodot.net/forum/posts.php?id=1891&pid=16504#16504]27. Ability to edit sample volume in built-in DMC editor.

There's a Pxx bug on the VRC6 (square) channels wherein P81 is like P80 on export, P82 is like P81, etc. I posted about it somewhere else on the forums in a less concise fashion. Err that's if bug reports belong in this thread anyway.
[i]A panning effect.[/i] T00 is fully panned to the left, TFF is fully panned to the right and T80 is in the middle. And yes the effect will be called Txx.

None of the Famicom's sound chips supported panning, but sure, I'll put it up there, see what jsr thinks about it.

That's kind of what I just said really isn't it... :p

Neither is Clock speed other than 60hz [edit:] (50hz PAL iirc). But famitracker has that. But it isn't totally necessary. The current workaround is to export each channel individually and edit the panning yourself via your favorite sound editor (audacity in my case). And if there is panning, then surely there needs to be a way to do stereo sweeps. Which I can't see being easy to implement in famitracker, but wholly doable to your heart's content in audacity.
Clock speed changes are possible on the NES as they're not really a "clock speed" so much as a "how many times am I updating this a second" rate.
[quote=Xyz_39808]The current workaround is to export each channel individually and edit the panning yourself via your favorite sound editor (audacity in my case).[/quote]
An easier solution is to play it back in notsofatso and just edit the panning, or even jsr's own nsf player.
[quote=jrlepage]8. Add a new 'Export to WAV' selection 'play for [] frames'[/quote]
Better yet, have "play from frame x to y." That way you can start wherever you want.
An effect to change what FM patch you are using with the VRC7 would be neat (Kinda like Vxx on the square channels, but switches between the patches of sounds in the VRC7 instrument).
Multiple Custom Instruments with VRC7 being used without the thing going completely wonky. Also, the tempo being inconsistent at anything other than 150 (I think) is kind of annoying.
Also, this may be far and beyond the next release, but I wonder if [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gYganaZAWt4]this will ever be possible in Famitracker...
[quote=Raijin]Multiple Custom Instruments with VRC7 being used without the thing going completely wonky. Also, the tempo being inconsistent at anything other than 150 (I think) is kind of annoying.[/quote]
I believe both of these issues are due to limitations of the original hardware.
[quote=vgthing]I believe both of these issues are due to limitations of the original hardware.[/quote]
I'd say it doesn't matter imo. Like explained above, rediculous clock speed changes aren't supported and like in that video I showed, that isn't possible either. The way I see it, if you want to stick to the limitations, you should be able to, but, if you want to be creative and use every expansion chip and do some really amazing things, you should be allowed that as well.

Well, I disagree. I feel the whole point of Famitracker is to be able to export to NSF, which will play back on real hardware. FTM playback has to sound as close to real hardware as possible.

Umm... Ok =\
