Playing it

This is the firmware itself, compiled to WebAssembly from the same sources as the device build: the YM2612 and SN76489 emulation, the tracker and every screen. Songs you save stay in this browser's flash.

KnobsDrag up and down, scroll, or focus one and use the arrow keys. MASTER is the volume
KeysZ…/ is F3 to A4 with the black keys on the row above, W…U goes on to G5
PLAYSpace
HOMEPattern view; again for the stage view, with scopes and the YM2612's registers lighting up
RECEdit mode: the keys write notes. KNOB 1–4 edit the note, instrument, volume and effect; FX flips them to the effect columns
SEQ · EDIT · GLOOrders and song settings · the instrument editor and library · songs and setup
SELHold it and turn SELECT to mark a block; tap to copy, hold 1 s to paste

The full control map is in the README. The editor writes songs on a computer keyboard and moves them to an FM-1 over USB; keep this page open and it reaches this emulator's songs too.

Install on your FM-1

Connect the FM-1 with a USB data cable, then let this page use MIDI. Chrome, Edge and Opera on a computer can do this; Safari cannot.
