Right. The tittle says it all.
Oracle is a music program released by me in 1997. So it's 10 years later and I though, heck it's time for an update 
It's actually the first coding I did again in years. Ahwell. I've done some little updates on Oracle. One of the things peeps complained about was the HEX display and input. Another thing is the lack of a stand alone driver.
decimal display
Well the HEX input/display has now been changed in to DECimal. It was a heck of a job, but it's done. Not all has changed. U see HEX display has the advantage of having just 2 chars vor 0-255 (00-FF) while decimals can have 3 (1-10-100). Furthermore HEX calculates faster. Well....
The MEM counter is still in HEX format. Same goes for some FX values. Example, the sliding. Sliding values can be 0-15. In HEX it takes just 1 char. In DEC it's 2 chars. That won't fit, check this:
one step looks like this: __ xxx note + FX with C4 and sliding volume FX: C4 v+1
u see, FX is 3 chars on screen. Having volume slide of 15 (max) will in HEX mode still be 3 chars, but in DEC it's 4 chars. There goes the neighborhood.
So, slide input is now max 9 (0-9)......
that sux!
Well, hehe it's not. Still hex valua is posible. Just try 0-9 a-f...
stand-alone music driver
still to come...
bug fixes
will do soon, I've got a list of nasty gurus still to fix.
I'll upload the update hopefully this weekend, stay tuned.
