Word... Is this a possibility, or is it a definite no-no for some Amiga sync/timing reason that I'm too stupid to understand fully?:)

I noticed when I was making my Top Gun cover that while F07 was far too slow and F05 was far too fast, F06 was *still* too fast and I couldn't get the required happy medium in-between. The XM and MOD formats allow for a frame-speed F00 command and then a BPM tempo command in the same pattern, which would a) make things much more flexible and b) make it easier to write parts to be recorded and put into a sequencer later (for those who like pfhattt Hively sounds in their fully-sequenced tracks).

Its not impossible, but since AHX doesn't do it, i'd have to impliment it some other way than "Fxx" commands since I want to keep them compatible. We'll see.

the protracker way is F05 in one channel and FXX at the same position in another channel for tempo. i guess you knew that.

Yes I knew that. AHX doesn't have this at all, though.

Edit: And PT doesn't require both F commands at the same time. Its just that numbers below a certain value set the frame count, and numbers above that value set the speed.

AHX forever!

Hmm.. if F06 is too fast, you could try setting the speed multiplier to 2, and use F0D. Which should be somewhere between F06 and F07 with the normal speed multiplier.
