> - New Note Actions: (pattern #2)
> I used the NNA 'S74' so that I could do my echos all in one
> channel. Although not a critical function I find it a bit
> less asthetically pleasing having echos displaced all over the
> pattern. 'S74' causes the current note (the one it's used on) to
> continue playing when a new sample is started.
>
>
> - Volume column panning: (pattern #2)
> I wanted the chime to pan from left to right, but I'd already
> used up the effect column. By pressing the "`" (key under ESC)
> when the cursor is over the volume column you can toggle between
> volume panning mode. Values range from 00-64, just like vol.
>
>
> - Panning slide: (pattern #2)
> After the chime is done sounding there is a time frame where it
> is ringing out. I wanted it to do a smooth pan back to the
> left panning position, so I opted to use the 'Pxx' command for a
> smooth panning slide. Values of 'P0x' pan to the left, and 'Px0'
> pan to the right.
>
>
> - Channel volume slide: (pattern #4)
> The command 'Mxx' (range of 0-40 hex) sets the channel volume.
> This command comes in handy when volume slides or vol column
> settings are either impossible or too time consuming. In this
> example it may not have been nessecary, but I wasn't sure of
> how a volume column slide would effect the volume envelope.
> To achieve the numeric gradient I manually entered the starting
> effects value and the ending effects value, selected the entire
> region by holding down SHIFT and using the arrow keys, and then
> pressed 'CTRL-X'. Viola!
>
>
> - Note Delay trill effect: (pattern #9, ch #9+10)
> This is a simple trick for trills when you don't want to change
> the speed of the song. First, on one channel you enter your
> first note. Then in the next channel, same row, enter your
> second note, but in the effects column enter in the note delay
> command, 'SDx'.
> I find that 'SD3' usuallu works well, unless you are using a
> weird groove template. It takes some experimenting to get the
> volumes just right.
>
>
> - Global Volume Fade Out: (pattern #12)
> Now, with Impulse Tracker, instead of manually fading out all of
> your tracks, or even setting the global volume ('Vxx') manually,
> you can just fill a channel with the 'WF1' command (or any value
> you see fit.)
>
>
> - Volume Envelope Echo: (F4- inst #1)
> All I did here was design the vol-envelope of this sample in a
> way that it would have an echo effect. I saved myself the
> trouble of having to use up more channels for simple echo.
>
>
> - Chip Explosion: (F4 - inst #9)
> This is a novel way to create a sort of explosion without using
> tons of sample space. I generated some white noise with Cool-
> Edit, loaded the sample into IT, amplified it by about 300X,
> gave it a sharp rise and fall in the vol-envelope, and then used
> the pitch envelope (that I never thought I'd find a use for!) to
> cause it to drop pitch. I used the sample as a sort of cymbal
> as well (see pattern #7 for use.)
>
>
> - Panning/Volume Swing: (F4 - inst #7)
> Nothing sounds worse than a overly mechanical HiHat! Adjusting
> the Volume Swing up on this instrument will cause its volume to
> be randomized within certain limits (depending on the value the
> vol swing is set to.) Panning swing does the same only for
> panning (duh!) I wanted the HiHat to be shot around at a fairly
> random panning position, so that it wouldn't sound too stagnant.
