Well... I've used FL Studio for a little over 3 years, and I want to start making 8 bits, so I'm pretty new at Famitracker...
I'm using that NSF importer thing, and I want to copy the instruments from Metal Man's music in Megaman 2. I want to copy the vibrato, but I don't know what the numbers are supposed to be...
The effects says...
P7C
P79
P7C
P7F
P82
P85
P82
P7F
and that loops...
This is what I tried to make, but was wrong.
|-4 -8 -4 -1 2 5 2 -1
I wrote this in the "Pitch" section in the instrument editor, and it was wrong. It kept making the pitch go higher and higher...
Soo... could someone help me out and tell me what the numbers supposed to be?

That is because the pitch macro in Famitracker is relative, and not absolute, so every number entry means the deviation from the pitch that was set with the previous one. The pitch was rising constantly because the numbers in the sequence added up to a negative result in the end.
So the number squence is supposed to be: | 4 3 -4 -3 -3 -3 3 3
(Every number is also its opposite since the hardware generates the tones by dividing a base frquency, so the lower the number the higher the reulting frequency. Pitch and Pxx simply modify the values to divide by to get musical notes)
The point is, that in the end, the numbers should add up to 0 to get a stable note.
