Real long shot, but for years now ive been trying to remember the name of / find an old track. All i remember is either at the beginning or really close to, it has the phrase "okay, okay, okay" followed by two synth stabs, before launching into the full track.

It had a late 80s / early 90s trance vibe to it i think. It may also have something to do with space or spaceships or something fwiw.

For the color setting "pattern:1st row bg"  everything works well: The line highlights up in the given colour and the line number on the left appears in the opposite color.

But for "pattern:2nd row bg" just the line number on the left changes color (like the choosen bg color) and the color of the line does not change at all.

I struggled with the two pattern highlight options too.
What I found out to be working:

• Set row highlight spacing 1st to 16 (and Full)
• Set row highlight spacing 2nd to 4 (and Full)

If you also set the corresponding bg colours:

• 60/60/60 for the 1st row ("Pattern: 1st row bg")
• 30/30/30 for the 2nd row ("Pattern: 2nd row bg")

you will get a nice pattern: Every 16th row has a light grey bg, every 4th row has a dark grey bg.

If you want the row# column to be a bit more colorful you can play with the "Pattern: 2nd highlight text" setting (setting it to FF/00/00 for example).

Since version 1.04 I noticed that the scope is highlighted where the cursor is.
Is a way to disable that?

I don't think so.

Also is it possible to make the Milkytracker window open always in custom position?

Apparently no.

I'm not 100% sure about these answers - but I believe they are correct. 

I wonder how exactly MT maps the finetune value in the instrument editor (-128...+127) to the allowed range of -8...+7 for MOD files. Is there any documentation about that?

I already found out (what one would expect):
-128 <=> -8
-112 <=> -7
-96 <=> -6
-80 <=> -5
-64 <=> -4
-48 <=> -3
-32 <=> -2
-16 <=> -1
0 <=> 0
16 <=> +1
32 <=> +2
48 <=> +3
64 <=> +4
80 <=> +5
96 <=> +6
112 <=> +7

but what about the values in between eg. what happens if I set finetune to an "odd" value like 51? Any formula for that?

Hmm ... once again I can answer my question myself.

While searching for something different I stumbled about a question in the FAQ: "What are Jam channels?" Turns out that this is *exactly* what I was wishing for!

You just have to enable "Jam channels" in the config (on the I/O page, section Instrument Playback). Done!

i would like to be able to playback samples (by hitting a key on the keyboard) also if the active track is muted.

Maybe configurable by a config option?
