This is a recreation of the RPG battle thingy from Kirby Super Star.

It sounds like an 2A03 cover except a few parts where the song cheats (extra triangle channel). This is also the first time I am able to somehow glitch the green bars and the channel volume of the FDS, and I did shout 'WHAT THE' at the time when the FDS channel suddenly became piercingly loud. Then WHAT THE also became the filename.

jsr should make the FDS channel's volume 32 because I heard the FDS channel is supposed to have that volume. It can't be THAT hard can it?

Curiously enough, NSFplay plays FDS-enabled NSFs exported from Famitracker with the FDS volume doubled...

...so there's your 32 volume steps.

no, there's your 16 volume steps stretched out over 32 by doubling

Great cover! Sounds perfect, good job. I love that battle.

If so, the volume column of the FDS channel will most likely have 2 digits, so it may be difficult.

There are still 16 steps only instead of 33: 0, 2, 4, 6 ... 26, 28, 30. (Note that the maximum volume is not 31, it is 32.)
Also, Axy still fades the volume with the above steps. 7xy's depth acts differently in FamiTracker and exported NSFs and once again, it only uses the above 16 steps.

indeed, which would make it more difficult to use in some instances. the extended volume range isn't that practical anyway, it doesn't make a lot of difference except for the very quietest value.

when you're using the FDS channel independantly of other channels it's not a big problem. but when you want to use it as a third pulse channel, using the same volume, volume slide or tremelo commands, the discrepancies can become a pain in the butt.

edit: also that cover is nice! in the original there's some quiet noise as well, might be an idea to add that

Here's my own version of this from a few years ago, which I made with mck. This was before FamiTracker became widely known (possibly even before it existed).

I did this by ear, albeit with cheating (separating individual channels, slowing it down, etc.)

That is not cheating - it is something every composer should do. What I mean is that using two triangle channels at once is cheating.

Cheez - I remember when I showed it to you before, you said there might be some wrong notes in it. Do you still think so? Your ears are better than mine...

I have it a listen (again) and it seems fine except for the beginning part (the one that isn't in the loop) and part of the bass in the middle that i can't explain exactly where it is, but the tones are nicer and more accurate than nicetas's, so you already got bonus points for that.
