Place the cursor in a track you want to move, then hit Ctrl+[left or right]arrow to move that track left or right.

Not that any of these is particularly secret (mostly just old, I guess), but... Effects: --Geonik's Expression 2 (Fun auto-wah/ECF thingy. It tends to break pretty regularly, but I've yet to find a good replacement.) --Whitenoise's Recorder (Records to the wavetable, but doesn't automatically clear ...

Usenet, I think...

If I remember correctly, Hiiri was a note-based waveguide effect - basically a delay with high feedback, where the delay length was controlled by notes entered into a pattern, yes? You may be able to get something similar by using Whitenoise Harmonic Delay.

Probably the easiest way to figure out what's going on is to add machines until you overload the CPU (which it seems you've already tried to do) and then run Resource Monitor (resmon.exe from the Windows Run prompt). There you can see how the CPU load is being distributed. Just from a practical poin...

You can probably find some utility that will help automate the process. This one, for example, looks like it will do what you need:

When you have the pattern length set to 3 beats, setting the sequence editor step to 12 should let you arrange your patterns with no breaks between them. However, setting both rows per beat to 3 and pattern length to 3 beats as you've described will actually give you 9/8 (compound triple) time, whic...

Anders, if you click the [Check out the OGG/MP3 version] link for each entry on the contest page, you can get to the in-browser player for each song (except elekt's, which as mute already noted over there, has disappeared for some reason). I'm quite impressed with all the entries! I missed the boat ...

Do the contest rules allow for the use of recorder machines to write to the wavetable in-song? I'm not talking about saving anything extra in the .bmx here, but rather writing it live. I'm thinking of using WhiteNoise Recorder for some feedback loop stuff, but before I start down that rabbit hole, I...

Ha - it looks like I was just barely beaten to the punch!

My version should loop click-free. Since it's exactly 1 second long, and there are exactly 440 cycles in a second, the phase is aligned at the beginning and end of the loop. Root note still needs to be set to A-5 for it to be in tune, though.

Ok, sure! Here's a 1-second, 440Hz sine tone generated by a Bass 3 playing A-5. I converted to mono in Soundforge, but the source material is all Buzz.

Sure, feel free to re-post the info however you like. I did realize, though, that this might not be an ideal solution for everyone, since below a certain pitch (C-5, I think), this tuning method will cause Jeskola Tracker to break. This appears to have something to do with the sample root note being...

Ah, now this should be fun! So it's a sine tone sampled at 440 Hz? Very interesting... Trying to tune the sample reveals that it's about 1.5 semitones flat when loaded and used as-is, or 1.5 semitones sharp if root note is set to A rather than C in the wavetable. After a little math and a lot of pla...

Is there any reason you'd prefer not to use Matilde's auto-shuffle effect? It's just 13 XY, where (copying form the help file): x - Ticks to shuffle. 2 shuffles every other step, 3 every third step and so on. y=Shuffle amount. 0=none, F=almost a full tick. change the subdivision amount to, say, 10 f...

Sounds good to me!

Hi, thOke!

If it's 100kB zipped, then it should be no problem to pack 10 songs in there. If it's 100kB uncompressed, then it'll just take a little more trickery, is all.

Well, fine, maybe a lot more trickery, but it is within the realm of possibility...

Either way, count me in!
