damn, furnace is kind of a banger tracker program
it contains emulators for a bunch of audio chips. and there's presets for various consoles, but u can also mix and match chips from different consoles in one project
@artemis furnace fucking rules. the only thing it's missing is the ability to export to chip-native formats (e.g. nsf export for nes or spc export for snes), which somewhat limits its usefulness for some types of chiptune, but im hoping it gets that later on
@artemis it's also, somehow, the only tracker i know of that actually puts the effect reference inside the damn interface rather than making you keep a manual open =w=
@typhlosion oh schismtracker does that too!! (and so does LSDJ). somehow i have lucked out 3 for 3 (4 for 4 if you include the m8) using trackers that include the effect reference inside the tracker
@artemis oh cool, that's really useful to know. thanks!
@typhlosion yeah so you can see it in two places.
one is you can go to "HELP -> COMMAND LIST" from the project screen. That lists the effects but not the parameters so its only partially useful
But if you double-tap the A-button on the effect letter while you're placing an effect, it will scroll what the effect is and what its parameters mean across the top of the screen. And if you double-tap-and-hold A and then cycle through effects on the D-pad it will automatically switch to showing you details on whichever effect you switch to
This feature is listed in "HELP -> PHRASE" as "A, A ON CMD......HELP"
