Another hour, another new version of FrequentZ. It turns out that there was another nasty bug in the second version. When you mul on an x86 the result gets put into eax and overflows to edx if it’s too big – not the other way around. DOH! I’m not sure why the opcode manual I have lists it as edx:eax. I guess it has something to do with big/little-endian but hey, I should know better. It’s only about the billionth time I’ve used that instruction. As usual, E-mail me with bugs, crashes, suggestions or complaints.

I also took the occasion to add a new feature and that’s why the version number jumped. There is now a checkbox in the left corner that toggles a looping mode. A friend of mine who plays the banjo suggested this the other day. When clicked, the buttons behave like toggles that turn the looped note on. It loops every 2 seconds to make it easier to tune to. When your done tuning just click the button again to turn off the loop. Here is the new interface:
