Regarding NTSC support, I thought it would be enough if I can run an editor 60 times a second in addition to 50 and then Bob's your uncle.
But reading the defMON wiki, I can see that a different frequency table is also needed to have true NTSC support? Is this always true? If so, it would make it harder to determine whether an editor truly supports NTSC. |

Yes, NTSC needs a different frequency table.
But it doesn't matter all that much, a lot of tunes use the wrong frequency table, either because the tables in the C64 manual were wrong (US manual was translated to various languages and the table was not adjusted) or because they took them from the wrong source, e.g. the SID datasheet, which was based on an exact 1MHz clock.
Detuned SID music is very common and purely exists to annoy Reyn and other people with perfect pitch hearing. :) |

DMC5.0 subtunes. Try with (shift m) if I remember right. There should be tunes 1 to 0 (on numeric keyyboard). That should be 10 subtunes. |

Nice to see everything is so well categorized. Splendid job and much appreciated :D
Will there be a comparison of the different Filter tables and possibilities each editor as well?
While I know JCH, Virtuose and Goat by now, DMC still confuses me or Let's just say it's
abracadabra :D And it seems i'm not the only one...
What about 1 example made in JCH that is shown for every other editor with the (almost) the same outcome ? |

Thanks, well, the table already goes into meticulous detail and going into even more detail would move it into documentation country. I have to draw the line somewhere. |

Sorry for wrong info. Just got my hands on DMC today. It's 0-7 (8 subtunes) |
