			<content type="html"><![CDATA[<p>Lovely track, I&#039;m like the harmonies you&#039;ve got going on here.</p><p>The increase in data size can be mitigated if you set the end marker to the actual end of the song (press Ctrl+End on row 4536 after running RowOpt).</p>]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[<p>Huh, interesting that it becomes bigger, maybe you can find out why. It was my first time using 1tracker so I&#039;m not yet with familiar with all the stuff and I forgot about the intro screen, whoops <img src="http://randomflux.info/1bit/img/smilies/big_smile.png" width="15" height="15" alt="big_smile" /></p>]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[<p>Cool, that&#039;s interesting!</p><p>It will play on actual ZX. If you press F6, you&#039;ll see how much memory it takes, which is ~20KB at the moment, and up to 32KB will work. You can also try automatically downsize by pressing Ctrl+F4, however with this song it is somehow gets its much larger instead, ~26KB. But in many cases the RowOpt helps greatly.</p>]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[<p>Hello! I got a song done with the Qchan24 engine provided here, so I figured to send this here also. I kinda ended up double posting, whoops.<br />I&#039;m very happy with it and I think I managed to get a good amount out of the engine :3<br />I think did the reference stuff right too in hopes of reducing file size, I have no clue if this is possible to run on an actual ZX.</p><p>Let me know what you think, I&#039;d love some feedback :3</p>]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[<p>My apologies Shiru, I&#039;m super pressed on time rn so haven&#039;t had the chance to test these. Just judging from Tufty&#039;s test track (also heard it without EQ) though, QC24 at least sounds amazing. I think absolutely nailed the volume balance between tones and drums this time.</p>]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[<p>Actually second version is already here, along with minor fixes for the first one.</p><p>So, here is two flavors of the engine: QChan24 and QChan25. The difference is that it has 4 or 5 channels. The sound generation algorithm is the same, but the implementation is quite different. QChan25 obviously has a bit lower sound quality and takes even more memory to store song data.</p><p>Will include it into the 1tracker package after some testing.</p>]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[<p>Fresh and hot, just finished the first fully working version. Not tested properly, tho!</p><p>- Per note envelopes, attack/decay/sustain types<br />- Per note volume, detune, legato mode<br />- Slide up/down for ch1<br />- Digital drums from Ear Shaver EX</p><p>The downside is much larger data format.</p><p>Not done with it yet, another flavor of the engine is cooking.</p>]]></content>
