Hi all,

The development of the routines to support the Moonsound is
going well. The following functions are working fine:

- Tone editor for editing 200 two-operator FM-tones
- Tone editor for editing 200 four-operator FM-tones
- Tone editor for editing 384 ROM and 128 RAM PCM-tones.
  Of course, the RAM PCM-tones can use samples from the
  ROM-memory.
- OPL4 program (=instrument in MIDI) editor for editing
  256 programs, that is 2 banks each containing 128
  programs. Each program can be built up out of several
  2-FM, 4-FM and PCM tones and each tone has it's own
  volume (relative), fine tuning (=detune), coarse tuning
  (=transpose) and key window (=musical interval within
  the tone can be played, example: C3..B7). For FM tones
  the pan setting is limited to Left, Center or Right.
  For PCM tones, the pan setting can be set to Left 7..
  Left 1, Center, Right 1..Right 7 or connected to the
  pan event in the song.
- OPL4 drum editor for editing 128 drums, that is 2 drumkits
  each containing 64 drums. This must be implemented from
  scratch, but a lot of routines from the OPL4 program
  editor can be used.
- OPL4 master settings. Is working for 50 %.

In each editor you can load and save separate tones or
programs. Functions to copy and paste settings are
available. Test tones by pressing F4. Testing tones by
MIDI-IN data is not implemented yet, but will follow for
sure. Online help for each editor must still be written.

O, by the way, Meridian needs 64K more memory to use the
OPL4.

I'll keep you all informed.

PS: any other suggestions? Let me know. Wolf did and
almost all his suggestions are implemented.

Gtx
Michiel
