Subject: Mistakes in Richard Hallas´ tone chart

 

I think there are 2 mistakes in Hallas´tone chart for the in-game
music.

1) The correct music scale is as follows:

C C# D D# E F F# G G# A A# B

The notes B# and E# don´t exist.
The notes C# and G# don´t appear in Hallas´ tone chart.

2) If you want a F note in the high scale to begin your tune,
according to Hallas, the poke value would be 48, but this value
doesn´t plays a F note, it plays a A note, making your tune to jump
two tones (=four semitones), although you can recognize your tune.

I´m now correcting the Hallas´ tone chart and I´ll post it as
soon as I can.

HAPPY 3004!
