VERSION 1.0 HAD A MAJOR ERROR ON THE SETUPS. PLEASE, DELETE THAT ONE AND GET NEW VERSION 1.1 (NOW ALSO WITH PAL CHART)

Hello there,

while working on the Rock Horror Show (Philsan's project) title screen music (which is yet to be finished), I ran into a small and old project of mine and decided to finish.

It's a chart based on Paul Slocum's tuning setups to create music for the 2600. I gathered his material (with his permission) and created a chart where all setups are related to only one musical scale, making it really nice to visualize the tuning possibilities. It's printable and really user-friendly (at least it helped me a lot).

I originally posted on the Atari 2600 programming forum, but I wanted to share this also here in batari Basic. It's over here.

Best regards,
Diogo

This is really cool! I could see prototyping a song with the QBasic/QuickBASIC PLAY command and then using the chart to convert notes to BatariBASIC.

Hey, I am trying to edit my post on the 2600 Programming forum (I have an updated chart correcting a major error) but I don't get the "Edit" button... while here in batari Basic sub forum I do have that option... is this how things work? What should I do now?

- OK, a moderator enable me to edit it
