Is there a way to reach a lower octave with the standard A and B channels? Also, why is this limitation there?
Anything lower than 'a' on octave one just sounds like 'c' on octave 2.
If you use the Namco N163 and enable more than one track, each track gets clocked less often and a nice side effect is that you can get lower notes. I'd like to not use the N163, in this case, if I don't need to.
Here's a working example:
