Does FT forget these settings after restarting? We could add to the list that it should remember what the setting should be from last time you used it. Same with PAL/NTSC mode, it always resets to NTSC whenever you start FT, even if you left it in PAL mode last time you used it.
Yeah. It's really annoying when you forget to change it... actually, wouldn't it be better if the individual FTM's contain this setting? So if you save an FTM while having "Paste and Overwrite" selected, it will be selected when you open that FTM next time as well? I think that would be better.
Is there an effect that lets you do a slide from one note to another, but one semitone per tick, not smoothly like the portamento effect? If not, I'll request it...
Well my whole point is I don't want to keep re-enabling it, because I don't need to use anything but Paste and Mix. That means with new projects as well, so I think it would be better if I could just set it and forget about it, whether as an option or as something that is remembered when you close FamiTracker (really I just think "Enable Paste and Mix by default" as a checkbox option would be super).

Couldn't you just use the Arpeggio editor-thing? o.O
Yeah, but then I'd need to use a different one for every interval, just like I could use a pitch envelope whenever I wanted a portamento effect, but it'd mean a lot of work. Of course, portamento is a lot more useful.
I think there should be an effect like 3xx (automatic portamento) except that it doesn't start a completely new note (i.e., doesn't restart envelopes from the beginning). Unfortunately, it's usually difficult or impossible to fake it using 1xx or 2xx for this purpose because you don't know what the time quantization is going to do to it. (I had it sounding right in one frame, then it sounded off again in the next one even though it was a repeat of the same pattern.) You should be able to fake it by using a different volume envelope, though, but that can be a pain.
you need "bend to note" which i thought was implemented, or was going to be implemented. 1xx and 2xx would be much more useful if one value was the speed and the other the pitch, rather than both used for speed. by this point though, changing it would screw up backwards compatibility even more, so it'd need to be a new effect unfortunately.
