Game Boy Advance

a portable video game console from Nintendo, succeeding the Game Boy.

it adds two stereo sample audio channels which can be used directly ("DMA", left/right) or used in a software mixing driver (most games do this) in order to have multiple voices.

effects

• 10xx: change wave.

Game Boy Advance (MinMod)

this is the software mixing driver available in Furnace. it is written by Natt Akuma. it features echo and up to 16 voices.

• 10xx: change wave.
• 11xy: configure echo.
  • this effect is kinda odd. this is how it works:

How do you echo on GBA

Create an empty instrment and put a very high note of it in channel 1 then do 110x in effect column and set volume column to set feedback and do nothing else on it

• 12xy: toggle invert.
  • x left channel.
  • y right channel.

info

this chip uses the GBA DMA and GBA MinMod instrument editors.
