I welcome all who are interested in our draft Master Tracker!
By no small activity for people rubezhom, but actually have
In Russia, we realized that our tracker for AY and YM Chip still
who then needed. Every time we ask different questions and
Required number of different modifications. We have them of
course consider and make this their own conclusions. Now I
actually will try to answer you on any issues and explain that
there are and will be in the MT at the moment!

a. Number of position, a point in the numbers (.0 -. F) is
placed for easy
determining the start of a pattern
b. Note and octave of the envelope
c. Form of the envelope
d. Ornament of the envelope (if the type of enve. [Punkt_c] is
not specified,
used form of decoration)
e. The frequency of the envelope (affixed automatically when
you enter notes
[Punkt_b]. When manually editing happens to delete a note
and the frequency of transposition will later be impossible)
f. Frequency noise (noise is summed with the frequency of the
sample) g. Note and octave tonal channel
h. Number of sample
i. Room decoration
j. Main sample volume
k. Home Mask sample
l. The effect of sample
m. Effect parameters
(K) ... can operate in any position (each channel) to install
its primary mask for the sample
<1> ... use the mask sample
<2> .. E off ogibayuschyyu
<3>. N. off noise
<4>. NE off the noise and the envelope
<5> T.. turn off the tone
<6> TE off the tone and the envelope
<7> TN. turn off the tone and noise
<8> TNE off the tone, noise, and the envelope
(L) ... <1> Slide Tone Down
<2> Slide Tone Up
<3> Slide from note to note (for Washington)
<4> Slide down the envelope
<5> Slide the envelope up
<6> Slide from note to note (for the envelope)
<7> temp / broken tempo of a track
(M) ... For slayd'a options look like this <Xssd>
where: X = Team (1 .. 6)
ss = shift
d = fraction bias
For temp'a options look like this <7tXY>
where: t =. - The usual rate (XY = 0 .. 255)
t = 1 - broken temp
(X = 0 .. 15 - the first pace, Y = 0 .. 15 - second rate,
alternate every position in the pattern.)

a. Number of tool
b. Mask of the envelope (. = Off, E = on)
with. Frequency shift of the envelope
d. Slide the envelope (. = Off, s = on)
e. Mask the noise (. = Off, N = on)
f. Frequency noise
g. Slide noise (. = OFF, s = on)
h. Mask pitch (. = Off, T = on)
i. Offset tone frequency
j. Slide Tone (. = OFF, s = on)
k. The volume of tone and noise
l. Room volume by pressing the arrow on it you can include
(Or off) the slide to the volume. This will be displayed
the presence of a number of minus or plus.
m. Loop tool (there are two: 1. Attack 2. Release)
n. Form of the envelope in an ornament (not yet implemented)
o. Ornament - offset by semitones from the note
p. Slide the ornament (. = Off, s = on)
q. Loop ornament (long one)
Likewise, the editor of patterns and tools will be implemented
work with blocks (for copying), the functions: insertion /
deletion transposition. Transpose can be as notes and
volume. All of the above description has already been
implemented ...
On screen shot'ax you will see the general form of the tracker
and editor tools (at the moment;). Personally, I think design
changing for the better. MOST IMPORTANT! We need
support / critique / advice from all existing SPECCY
musicians and other interested people! Write everything that you
think about the future of the editor, give advice and
recommendations, and only then is our new tracker to get a
really great and mighty ...
