Saving & Printing |
When saving a song, there are a couple things you must first check. You must at least include the last pattern of the song in the Sequence table. Also, you cannot have any gaps in the sequence(ie: you cannot skip a slot in the sequence and insert a pattern in the next slot). Blanks at the end of a song's sequence are fine (I have yet to see a song that used all 128 slots).

The effect is displayed as the six letter abbreviation as seen in the standard editor. |
