I’ve changed the manual and added some more directions on the hidden panning column… The application of effects on the tracks can be found in the side-notes upon the effect command manual page.
I now also have added some extra remarks behind each described column to what note(s) it has effect on, inside the pattern editor manual page.
Argh so this means that old XM’s cannot be played back correctly… Damn… I was just wondering why my old songs sound like there is something wrong with the volumes…
normally, XM 00…40 volumes should be mapped to the new 00…7F range. if you notice something wrong with this conversion, then it should be because of an importing bug.
yeah… there is something here… I have buggy importing on allmost every old XM i try… =)
Does anyone else feel like the volume command would do better with just 00-40 values?!
When composing manually I really can’t see why there is need for more - though it is cool to have more accurate “levelling” =) Still it gets a bit hard when you make it by hand.
Anyways… all is cool as it is though it would be cooler & faster in terms of composing if the levels could be switchable to FT2 style…
