- [Standard](standard.md) - for use with NES and Sega Master System's PSG sound source and its derivatives.
- [PSG](psg.md) - for use with TI SN76489 and derivatives like Sega Master System's PSG.
- [NES](nes.md) - for use with NES.

# Standard instrument editor
The instrument editor for NES consists of these macros:
- **Volume**: volume.
- **Arpeggio**: pitch in half-steps.
- **Duty**: duty cycle and noise mode.
- pulse duty cycles:
- `0`: 12.5%
- `1`: 25%
- `2`: 50%
- `3`: 75%
- noise modes:
- `0`: long noise.
- `1`: short noise.
- **Panning**: output for left and right channels.
- **Pitch**: fine pitch.
- **Phase Reset**: trigger restart of waveform.

# PSG instrument editor
The instrument editor for PSG (SMS, MSX, and other TI SN76489 derivatives) consists of these macros:
- **Volume**: volume.
- **Arpeggio**: pitch in half-steps.
- **Duty**: noise mode.
- `0`: short noise, preset frequencies.
- `1`: long noise, preset frequencies.
- `2`: short noise, use channel 3 for frequency.
- `3`: long noise, use channel 3 for frequency.
- **Panning**: output for left and right channels.
- **Pitch**: fine pitch.
- **Phase Reset**: trigger restart of waveform.
