What it does
Furnace creates chip-based music across several systems and documents compatibility with DefleMask modules.
Choose the target sound chips, enter patterns and shape instruments or samples within their channel limits. Furnace can combine chips, accept MIDI input and edit samples, then export a whole-song, per-chip or per-channel audio file, or a supported chip-specific format.
The README gives Windows, Mac and Linux installation routes. DefleMask module/instrument/wavetable interchange and compatibility flags help migration; check the chosen chip and export format before planning hardware playback.
