I found out that if you export VRC7 Projects in Version 0.3.6 with either f or e volumes on VRC7, it will play correctly in the nsf file!

That's because exporting the NSF completely ignores whatever volume settings lower than F you've actually used. That was the initial problem.

jrlepage: Are you sure the pattern editor is selected? Because it still works for me.

tdude10 & moviemovies1: I don't get what you mean, is the volume column not working in exported NSFs? 0.3.5 was not perfectly working, the VRC7 volume was way too low.

The samples sound distorted in 3.6, and have much more vibrato.

DO THIS: take any random 2a03 (internal) song and play it in the tracker. Now change the module to vrc7, and it becomes MUCH quieter. do this w. any other sound chip, and it stays the same as normal. Your honour, there is my defence

I'm no programmer, but I noticed the only NSF files that cause the error to occur have file sizes that aren't a multiple of 8. Any NSF output by ppMCK, for instance will have a filesize that's a multiple of 8: 8 KB, 16 KB, 24 KB and so on. But sometimes (most of the time even), FamiTracker (and even some NES ripping tools - FCEUGX sometimes return the error for NES soundtracks as well) will output NSFs with arbitrary file sizes. I don't know if it means anything to you or if it helps at all, but that's the observation I made, at any rate.

Yes the internal channels are attenuated to increase the headroom for VRC7, I must do this to avoid clipping when all channels are on max. This is also exactly what happens when you inserts a real VRC7 cart, the internal channels drops to about -10dB.

jrlepage: Ok that seems to be the issue, good finding! My suggestion is to file a bug report to the authors of that emulator because NSF files of arbitrary sizes should be allowed.
