Alright. I've finally perfected the template, and I'm sure you're all sick and tired of me trying to hammer this thing down your throats, so here you go.

You don't post often enough for anything you do to start being annoying; your no nuisance be assured.

You do this style very well. Sounds straight out of Life Force.

Why dd you enable 6 channels only to not use one? I mean, I know the SCC only has 5, but that only adds more confusion as to why 6 were enabled.

Also, to (mostly) correctly emulate the PSG volume levels, the envelopes for instruments 00 and 02 should be:
00: 0 8 6 4 3 2 2 1 1 1 1 1 0
02: 12 12 8 6 6 6 4 4 4 4 3 3 2 1 0 0

Other than that this is incredibly Gradius-like MSX imitation.

Ah, yes. Usually the unused channel was for sound effects. I don't know why I decided to leave it empty in this case, but there you go.

Also, thanks a bunch for the volume envelopes. In this song I basically took them from Lagrange Point.

I personally wouldnt let it bother me. It's the TC's choice.

Using only 5channels creates tuning issues

[edit:] derp, I'm thinking of sample lengths that are not 2^n

Well, normally you'd be right, if it weren't for the fact Famitracker recalculates the pitch table as you enable/disable channels.

Using channel counts that aren't powers of 2 does mess up the tuning with ppMCK, for instance.
