NOTE: In order to use added SSEQs, you need to use my mod of NSMBe (It changes the Music Selection Box into a value box)

You also need to insert Roadrunner's code to allow sseq IDs over 112:

This sounds pretty promising..

Features:
  • Import .mid for .sseq files.


Does this support note slides, modulation etc. (yet)?

This uses loveemu's sseq2mid in the Tools folder of Nitro Studio. I really don't know what it supports. Some things about sseq playback are related to sbnks though.

can I use the program to insert .sseq`s into the .sdat without damaging the file? or have I misunderstood that?

You can! Nitro Studio automatically fixes the indexes of all objects when you add a new file or node.

But what about getting them to work in combination with SBNKs and SWARs?

Under sound sequence, you go down to the new entry and change what bank it uses. You can also change the SWARs a bank can use.
To see examples, watch the tutorial.

Hey, so I tried importing Sonic CD JAP's Palmtree Panic music (yes, in MIDI form), but when I try to play it it just plays a weird drum track. I tried a SMB2 MIDI, and it worked fine. Please help. Thanks in advance. BTW if you need it, here's the link to the MIDI: https://files.khinsider.com/midifiles/segacd/sonic-cd-japan-/palmtree-panic-present.mid

You can't just import an MIDI and have it work all fine. Please see my music hacking tutorial on how to set the instruments properly:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kY0NffaR1sc&index=18&list=PLqLbHe4NpIb5T7evcOl9dll23HC8-i9QT


And then part of this, you can use Nitro Studio after you get the MIDI.

Thanks! I thought it would work fine and it was the midi because importing a SMB2 midi with no modifications worked fine. Anyway thanks for the help!

Increasing the Note Numbers of all tracks (except the drum tracks) in BANK_CHIJOU_CONT.sbnk leads to the following result.

Now you guys can actually hear what Attack, Release etc. means.

UPDATE:
You can now preview instrument sounds in Nitro Studio!
Please note, that I can't figure out how to make them have the modifications made in the editor though so...

There has been some new, big updates for Nitro Studio lately, like a redesigned SBNK editor, importing and exporting of INFO entries' files, and indicators on the bottom to tell you where you last left off. So be sure to download the newest build!

We're happy to say Nitro Studio is getting near being finished. There's also an upcoming Nitro Studio guide that should help explain nearly everything about the SDAT, as well as how to use the editor and how to do certain music/sound hacking things.



Anyway, there's this thing we would like your help with. It's just a small thing, but we're struggling about fitting icons for the different SBNK Instrument Types. Most of them are probably fine, but the Regional Instrument currently has a Google Maps-ish icon and the Ranged Instrument is represented by a bow and arrow. It's hard to find icon that fit. I mean, what could one visualise when thinking about instrument types? We'll have to be creative anyway.

Just for the record:
* Universal Instrument is the 'default' instrument that only uses 1 SWAV file.
* 8-Bit Instrument is the PSG instrument which was used for NES and Game Boy (Color) games mostly, but is still in the GBA and DS. Many NSMB musics use this instrument too.
* White Noise Instrument is also a PSG instrument. It produces white noise, and it was used for drums in NES and GB(C) games.
* Direct PCM Instrument is unknown. It hasn't been used in any DS game as far as we know. The sound system of the GB(C) had support for a 32-dot-sound form, which could be kinda seen as a very primitive SWAV file. It's possible this is what this instrument type also does, as the other parts of the GB(C) sound system (8-Bit and White Noise) are also supported in SDAT.
* Blank Instrument doesn't seem to do anything. It seems like a sort of placeholder.
* Ranged Instument lets you set one SWAV sample for one specific key. It's often used to make drums channels.
* Regional Instrument lets you set one SWAV samples for a 'region' of keys. It's often used for channels that play a big range of notes. They use multiple SWAVs that play the same instrument but in a lower or higher octave. This will make the result sound better.
