Namco 163 instrument editor

The Namco 163 instrument editor consists of three tabs: "Namco 163" for control of various waveform parameters, "Wavetable" for control of the wave synth and "Macro" containing several macros.

Namco 163

  • Load waveform: if enabled, a waveform will be loaded when this instrument plays.
    • if it isn't then only the position/length change.
  • Waveform: determines the waveform that will be loaded.
    • only appears when Load waveform is enabled.
  • Per-channel wave position/length: when enabled, the position/length settings are split per channel.
  • Position: determines the waveform position in RAM.
  • Length: determines the waveform length in RAM.

Wavetable

this allows you to enable and configure the Furnace wavetable synthesizer. see this page for more information.

note that setting the Update Rate to something greater than 1 and playing the instrument in two channels may result in conflicts.

Macros

  • Volume: volume levels sequence.
  • Arpeggio: pitch sequence.
  • Wave Pos: sets waveform seek position in RAM.
  • Waveform: sets waveform.
  • Pitch: fine pitch.
  • Wave Length: sets waveform length.
