==== DETUNE TONE A, B and C ====

In the TUNE MENU you can put a positive or negative OFFSET to each TUNE REGISTER (press [+]/[-]).  

Notice: **the tune ratio of the AY 3 8912 chip is not linear**, so any offset will **DETUNE** A, B and C (not transpose!). The +/- offset can put the tune out of range.



==== BACKGROUND: THE AY 3 8912 TUNE REGISTER ====


The frequency of each square wave (A, B, and C) is defined trough the respective value of the COARSE TUNE REG (4bit) and the FINE TUNE REG (8bit).
