# Music Commands
|
||
|
||
Defined in [macros/scripts/audio.asm](https://github.com/pret/pokecrystal/blob/master/macros/scripts/audio.asm) and [audio/engine.asm:MusicCommands](https://github.com/pret/pokecrystal/blob/master/audio/engine.asm).
|
||
|
||
Note: Commands that are intended for the song channels (1-4) can be used by the sound effect channels (5-8) if the sound effect channel exits sound effect mode with the `toggle_sfx` command.
|
||
|
||
|
||
## <code>channel_count <i>n</i></code>
|
||
|
||
Used at the start of each sound header to specify how many channels are used in the sound.
|
||
`n`: Number of channels [`1`, `4`]
|
||
|
||
|
||
## <code>channel <i>index</i>, <i>address</i></code>
|
||
|
||
Used for each channel in a sound header.
|
||
`index`: Channel number [`1`, `8`]
|
||
`address`: Pointer to the sound data
|
||
|
||
|
||
## <code>note <i>pitch</i>, <i>length</i></code>
|
||
|
||
Play a basic note. Used by channels 1-3.
|
||
`pitch`: Pitch of note (see [constants/audio_constants.asm](https://github.com/pret/pokecrystal/blob/master/constants/audio_constants.asm))
|
||
`length`: Length of note in "ticks" [`1`, `16`]. The exact duration of a tick is dependant on the current "speed" (see `note_type` and `drum_speed`) and the current "tempo" (see `tempo`).
|
||
|
||
|
||
## <code>drum_note <i>instrument</i>, <i>length</i></code>
|
||
|
||
Play a predefined drum note. Used by channel 4.
|
||
`instrument`: Instrument ID [`1`, `12`] (see `toggle_noise`)
|
||
`length`: Length of note [`1`, `16`]
|
||
|
||
|
||
## <code>rest <i>length</i></code>
|
||
|

## <code>square_note <i>length</i>, <i>volume</i>, <i>fade</i>, <i>frequency</i></code>
|
||
|
||
Sound effect square note. Used by channels 5-7.
|
||
`length`: Length of note [`0`, `255`]
|
||
`volume`: Initial volume [`0`, `15`]
|
||
`fade`: Volume fade [`-7`, `7`]
|
||
`frequency`: Note frequency [`0`, `65535`]
|
||
|
||
|
||
## <code>noise_note <i>length</i>, <i>volume</i>, <i>fade</i>, <i>frequency</i></code>
|
||
|
||

|
||
`length`: Length of note [`0`, `255`]
|
||
`volume`: Initial volume [`0`, `15`]
|
||
`fade`: Volume fade [`-7`, `7`]
|
||
`frequency`: Note frequency [`0`, `255`]
|
||
|
||
|
||
## `$D0`−`$D7`: <code>octave <i>n</i></code>
|
||
|
||
Set the octave for the notes played on the current channel. Used by channels 1-3.
|
||
`n`: New octave [`1`, `8`]
|
||
|
||
|
||
## `$D8`: <code>note_type <i>length</i>, <i>volume</i>, <i>fade/wave_instrument</i></code>
|
||
|
||
Set persistent note properties. Used by channels 1-3.
|
||
`length`: Base note length [`1`, `15`] (`12` is often used for 4/4 common time because `12` is factorable by both `3` and `4`. Therefore it works very well for quarter notes, eighth notes, sixteenth notes, and triplets.)
|
||
`volume`: Initial volume [`0`, `15`] for channels 1-2, [`0`, `3`] for channel 3 (see `volume_envelope`)
|
||
`fade`: Volume fade [`-7`, `7`] (applies to channels 1-2)
|
||
`wave_instrument`: Wave instrument ID (applies to channel 3) (see [audio/wave_samples.asm](https://github.com/pret/pokecrystal/blob/master/audio/wave_samples.asm))
|
||
|
||
|
||
## `$D8`: <code>drum_speed <i>length</i></code>
|
||
|
||
Set persistent note properties. Used by channel 4.
|
||
`length`: Base note length [`1`, `15`] (use `12` for common time)
|
||
|
||
|
||
## `$D9`: <code>transpose <i>num_octaves</i>, <i>num_pitches</i></code>
|
||
|
||
Transpose all notes played on the current channel. Used by channels 1-3.
|
||
`num_octaves`: Number of octaves to subtract from each note
|
||
`num_pitches`: Number of pitches to add to each note
|
||
|
||
|
||
## `$DA`: <code>tempo <i>tempo</i></code>
|
||
|
||
Set the tempo for all playing channels. This should only be used by channel 1.
|
||
|
||
The formula to convert from this tempo to BPM is: BPM = 19200 / `tempo`
|
||
This formula also works backwards to convert BPM to tempo: `tempo` = 19200 / BPM
|
||
|
||
Only set or change this value when all playing channels are triggering a note or rest at the same time, otherwise desyncs may happen.
|
||
|
||
|
||
## `$DB`: <code>duty_cycle <i>duty_cycle</i></code>
|
||
|
||
Set the square duty (sound) for the current channel. Used by channels 1-2.
|
||
The only accepted values are 0-3.
|
||
|
||
- 0 = 12.5% waveform: `_______¯`
|
||
- 1 = 25% waveform: `______¯¯`
|
||
- 2 = 50% waveform: `____¯¯¯¯`
|
||
- 3 = 75% waveform: `__¯¯¯¯¯¯` (sounds the same as 25%)
|
||
|
||
To change the sound for channel 3, use `note_type` or `volume_envelope`.
|
||
|
||
|
||
## `$DC`: <code>volume_envelope <i>volume</i>, <i>fade/wave_instrument</i></code>
|
||
|
||
Set the volume envelope for the current channel. Used by channels 1-3.
|
||
`volume`: Initial volume [`0`, `15`] for channels 1-2, [`0`, `3`] for channel 3
|
||
`fade`: Volume fade [`-7`, `7`] (applies to channels 1-2)
|
||
`wave_instrument`: Wave instrument ID (applies to channel 3) (see [audio/wave_samples.asm](https://github.com/pret/pokecrystal/blob/master/audio/wave_samples.asm))
|
||
|
||
For channel 3, the only accepted `volume` values are 0-3.
|
||
|
||
- 0 = Mute
|
||
- 1 = 100% volume
|
||
- 2 = 50% volume
|
||
- 3 = 25% volume
|
||
|
||
Note about `fade`: A positive value means a decrease in volume; a negative value means an increase in volume. A small magnitude means a quick change; a large magnitude means a slow change. It is stored in signed magnitude representation, so a value of `8` is the same as (negative) `0`.
|
||
|
||
|
||
## `$DD`: <code>pitch_sweep <i>length</i>, <i>pitch_change</i></code>
|
||
|
||
Set pitch sweep properties. Used by channel 5.
|
||
`length`: Duration of effect [`0`, `15`]
|
||
`pitch_change`: Extent of effect [`-7`, `8`] Note: `8` is used in place of `0`
|
||
|
||
|
||
## `$DE`: <code>duty_cycle_pattern <i>a</i>, <i>b</i>, <i>c</i>, <i>d</i></code>
|
||
|
||
Set duty cycle pattern (ie, pulse width modulation). Used by channels 5-6.
|
||
|
||
This cycles the channel through 4 duty cycles, one per frame.
|
||
Each argument defines a duty cycle, same as the `duty_cycle` command.
|
||
|
||
|
||
## `$DF`: <code>toggle_sfx</code>
|
||
|
||
Toggle between pitch-based songs and frequency-based sound effects. Can be used by any channel.
|
||
|
||
Note: Similar to the pokered command `execute_music`, however `execute_music` can only be used on channels 5-8 and can not be disabled for the duration of the sound once it is enabled.
|
||
|
||
|
||
## `$E0`: <code>pitch_slide <i>duration</i>, <i>octave</i>, <i>pitch</i></code>
|

||
|
||

## `$E2`: <code>unknownmusic0xe2 <i>unknown</i></code>
|
||
|
||
|
||
## `$E3`: <code>toggle_noise <i>id</i></code>
|
||
|
||
Set the "drum kit" to be used if it is currently unset. Mute the channel otherwise. Used by channel 4.
|
||
`id`: Drum kit ID [`0`, `5`] (see [audio/drumkits.asm](https://github.com/pret/pokecrystal/blob/master/audio/drumkits.asm))
|
||
|
||
Note: The drum kit ID is initially unset at the start of a song. When muting the channel, the `id` argument must not be present.

|
||
## `$E4`: <code>force_stereo_panning <i>left_enable</i>, <i>right_enable</i></code>
|
||
|

|
||
|
||
Adjust the pitch of all notes on the current channel. Used by channels 1-3.
|
||
`pitch_offset`: Frequency adjustment of each pitch
|
||
|
||
Note: Similar to the pokered command `toggle_perfect_pitch`. `toggle_perfect_pitch` can be replaced with a combination of `pitch_offset 1` and `pitch_offset 0`.
