FamiTracker
Way to violate rule 2.C. of this forum, guys. za909 seems like the only guy who posted something practical as a response.
Anyways, my response; yes, the song is a bit repetitive, but it's still among the first steps at using the tracker. The repetition isn't exactly my concern, though; it's the fact that you're using the same pattern in your triangle channel that you're using for your echoing squares.
I, honestly, feel that it could have been put to a better use as a more supportive bass channel to your actual track (even if you use it as a drone channel). Not to say that it's a bad thing to do; there's no law against how you use your channels. It's only my opinion.

Thanks for the help, Tech, I will remember that. Although, it was just fear it would be too empty. I will try out your idea, I think it would work better.

I'm glad to help. As for the fear of too much emptiness, well...
Sometimes (& I'm speaking from my own experience,) it's easy to overfill your music with too much sound; this is especially worse when you're using a tracker like this because each sound wave has the ability to compound its volume on top of another's. I've had the same fear myself when I was still starting off (except that my results were a million times worse). :P
Proof: [url=http://stlflops.com/techemporium/warlord/]track 15 of my second OST has the most dissonance out of any other track, due not only to how repetitive it is, but also to the horrid job I've done with volume control, added to my using all of the VRC6 & 2A03 channels.
But yes; I had that fear of the song not being rich enough unless I filled it in with something. That's exactly what made my song in particular sub-par. The moral of the story; emptiness (or near-emptiness) can, sometimes, be a good thing.
Here's an example of what I mean when I talk about using the triangle for something else, though:
