Ratings and reviews

This app is great for all kinds of chiptune music, and is much, much easier to use than famitracker, while being capable of many of the same features. The official discord is also a great help if you don't understand something in the documentation! Overall, absolutely lovely app.

Needs a confirmation message when overwrting projects as I just lost hours of work in a misclick. Otherwise decent app.

This app is unreal even as a paid app, the fact that it's completely free blows my mind. This app has almost anything you need to make an 8-bit chiptune track, it's completely unreal. This app is severely underrated! I would give more than 5 stars if it was possible!
