@PaleDeth Because: 1) it uses the Amiga period table for frequencies which is identical for PC Engine. 2) All short waveforms (32bytes) are 5bit which is what the PC Engine uses(mini wavetable synth). 3) All long waveforms (greater than 32bytes) are set to a fixed frequency of 7khz (they've been recalculated from original note and resampled down). PCE can play long waves on any channel. Everything is PC-Engine 'legal' in this XM (which I also have a WIP XM to rom converter for PC Engine) :)
@PaleDeth Oh and it's six channels (thought I can mix more than that for fixed frequency playback channels on the real PC Engine by using two channels to make a single 10bit linear DAC and soft mixing)
This is great. I actually prefer it to the original!

How is this a pc engine tune?
