I think itsreally neat. Nice job!

But I also have to say that they are right. These are not fully true to the sound capabilities of the NES.

2 variable pulse waves (set at 25%, 50%, 75%, or 87.5%) with pitch bending and 16-level volume control (range 54Hz to 28kHz)

1 triangle wave with fixed volume level (range 27Hz to 56kHz)

1 dual-mode noise channel with 16 pre-programmed frequencies and 16-level volume control

1 DPCM channel with 6 bit range and 1 bit encoding at sample rates from 4.2kHz to 33.5kHz

Monaural sound output

In other words, just use a tracker.

I already know those specs (except for the freq ranges and 16-step thing) and I can recreate the sound in Surge, the only thing that is impossible to do is the 16-step thing and also the fact that NES has pitch modulation capabilities but even that is very steppy-sounding. It's a shame we don't have a synth that can create this effect.

Also 25% and 75% are the same thing :)

...if only I made the title of this thread "vertical scroller soundscape"

Then half the responses wouldn't be, "YOU NOOB THIS IS NOTHING LIKE NES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Yes, people. I KNOWWWW that the NES fanboys will hear a world of difference, but to my friend down the street, for example, will say "hey this sounds like an old game"

GOSH!!! *slaps forehead in disappointment*

I refuse to listen to them on account of the maker acting like a complete tool.
