Star Bars is a music sequencer and play routine for Atari 2600 video game console from the late 70's. The editor runs on a Commodore 64 and exports both PAL and NTSC Atari 2600 ROM images containing your music and the music player code.

Star Bars uses Tiatonic Tuning to achieve 8x improved frequency resolution over TIA chip au naturel and it can play the full chromatic scale over 6 octaves. No more awful out-of-tune Atari 2600 bleeps! C-1..F-2 and E-3..F-6 are the most accurate note ranges. F#2..D#3 and above F#6 are a bit hazy.

Registers are updated up to 32 times per frame, so using Star Bars music in games or demos is somewhat challenging, yet not impossible.
