- FM, SSG, ADPCM:
00xy
x: Difference between the first sound (current sound) and the second sound [0-F]
y: Difference between the first sound (current sound) and the third sound [0-F]
Used for arpeggios.
Execute in order of 1→2→3→1→2→3→1→... in tick units.
The difference between each pitch is higher for notes that are pronounced later in semitone steps.
The execution is stopped to set 0000.
- FM, SSG, ADPCM:
01xx
xx: Depth [00-FF]
Repeats adding the depth to the current pitch in ticks.
The execution is stopped to set 0100.
- FM, SSG, ADPCM:
02xx
xx: Depth [00-FF]
Repeats the subtraction by the depth to the current pitch in ticks.
The execution is stopped to set 0200.
- FM, SSG, ADPCM:
03xx
xx: Depth [00-FF]
The pitch changes smoothly between notes.
The pitch is changed by the depth in ticks.
It affects the notes after the same step as the effect declaration.
The execution is stopped to set 0300.
- FM, SSG, ADPCM:
04xy
x: Period [0-F]
y: depth [0-F]
Performs vibrato (pitch fluctuation). Changes pitch periodically in ticks. As an example, the changes when period = 2 and depth = 1 are as shown in the figure below.
The execution is stopped when period or depth is set to 0.
- FM, SSG, ADPCM, Drumkit:
07xy
x: Period [0-F]
