Hello. Over the next
seven kilobytes to you I will, KENOTRON. A
the subject of our conversation will be the editor
'DIGITAL DESIGNER'.
At first, some characteristics
Editor's Note:

Editor comes in two
versions: for 128K - with a mix chatotoy
17KHz, and 48K - with a frequency of 22 (!) KHz.
Management is carried out by an arrow
by KEMPSTON'a or SINCLAIR'a.
In the options for disc cursor
Command key CS +6, CS +7; 0, ENTER
- Selection; CS + SS - way out.
When referring to drive BREAK

resume - RETRY or leave - ABORT.
At the top are options:
1. PROJECT, which you can:
New - clean up working memory for
create a new module
Open - open (download) a file

Below the screen is divided into 2 parts,
the left half of which are:
Play song - loses Module
outset
Cont song - loses Module
selected position
Play patt - pattern of play from the beginning
Cont patt - Iraheta pattern from a position
cursor.
C - deletes the selected tool
L - allows you to download
tool. Most RULEZ
lies in the fact that it is possible
ship 34-kilobyte (or perhaps
and more!) tool.
The choice of the current tool
by arrows to the right of its
name. After downloading this tool
his number is incremented.
Loop - sign installation
looping tool
Begin - displacement loops of
beginning (in HEX).
Edit patt - the choice of working pattern
On / off edit
by pressing
FIRE or SPACE
Octave - sets the octave
Step - selection, on / off pitch

When you select the remaining three options
their contents are displayed on the right side
Screen:

It displays a list of
position-patterns, which scrolls
arrows, as well as:
Lenght - Set the length of the module
positions including
Patt - pattern selection for installation

Set - a record in the selected pattern
list of positions
Insert - insert pattern to the list
Delete - Remove the pattern from the list
Home, End - to the beginning / end of list
Autostep - Installation avtoskrolla at

2. TRANSPOSITION

pattern
Chann - the channel, which is
cursor
Range - a marked block.
All - changes to the music with any
tool

Halfstep up / down - Transpose

Change notes:

Change - Replace the first second
Swap - to exchange them among themselves
Change sample - as above,
but it relates to
instruments, as well as:
Del - delete all the notes from the source

3. EDIT
Range current channel - note the block
will be
in the current channel
Range current block - the mark of all-
Channels
Mark chan - mark a channel in which
cursor
Mark patt - note the current pattern.
Reset range - uncheck
Clear range - clean the marked blocks
Copy - copy marked block to the
buffer
Paste - insert a block from the buffer with

Well, with options to clear.
Now scroll to the bottom half of the screen -
field editor.
The cursor moves through
cursor keys (CS +5 .. 8), as well as
keys I, L - up, down. Possible
cursor with the arrow
induced at the desired position, followed by
pressing FIRE.
Each channel contains:
C-2 3A05
command parameters
instruction code
tool number
note-octave
Sets the octave keys is
1,2,3.
The tool can be put
directly into the instrument (1-G).
If his number = 0, then played the previous
tool for a given note.
Teams realized until two:
A - Speed Setting
playback module (01-0F)
B - a sign of the end of the pattern (without
parameters).
In the field notes:
key ENTER - erases a note
tool
Key R - sets
team killing
channel.
When you click CS +9 is a mark
(Or withdrawal thereof) to the current position of the channel
(If you selected Range current channel) or
line (Range current block).
Oh, and another two useful functions:
SS + H - sets the cursor to the
top pattern
SS + P - losing pattern with
cursor position.
You can interrupt playback
pressing FIRE, CS, SPACE, ENTER.
That is, in general, and all. Go for it!
