Hey guys.
I just finished my first real attempt at a chiptune music with FamiTracker.
It is supposed to be an Megaman-ish theme (yeah, what else ;)), but I think I didn't get the style quite right.
Hope you enjoy it nevertheless and maybe can give me some tips and suggestions on how to improve my technique.

It's not exactly true to being a Megaman-ish theme, but it's still a good song.

I think Square 1 could use a little more variation from the countermelody that features in the first 6 frames. It was nice to see you include an echo section and chords in the final 2 frames but I'd like to see more of that sort of thing at intervals throughout the song. I also think the squares could benefit from some regular duty changes (instead of just V01 for SQ2 and V00 for SQ1 throughout the whole song). These two things should help your song sound more dynamic.
That said, I really like the melody. The song just needs to show a bit more progression, that's all.

Good song, but only slightly megamanny.

As in you did nicely with the beat, but it sounded stolen straight from a megaman game.

Honestly, "Mega Man style" is a rather broad term. All of the games have had a very distinct style from each other.

To the untrained ear (mine XD) this definitely sounds like a convincing Mega Man tune... Did Mega Man games ever use pitch-bending though?

Frame 06 does sound a tad bit empty to me though...

EDIT: I think I messed it up D:...

Mega Man themes do use pitch bending; my only problem is that this particular song doesn't exactly follow the same genre because of the sequence of notes & the way the noise channel's being used.
