The name is lame but it's what I came up with when I first pitched for this idea. It's something that has been cooking up in my head since the first FM Synth compo.

As the name implies it would be a compo focused on wavetable (not sample-based) formats, which currently include

• PC-Engine/TurboGrafx-16
• Gameboy
• NSF+ (N-163 and FDS)

Also some ambiguous formats that works given it's reinforced in the rules the focus on using simple waveforms:

PxTone

mod(x)k

Wildchip

This could also make opportunity for a MSX format. Tools like TriloTracker and mgsdrv could allow for using the SCC soundchip. Also Virtual Boy, if this

is already released by the time the compo happens. _{Also GXSCC}

Wavetable chiptunes have a really unique sound to them and I really think it would be nice to have a compo focused on it, mainly after seeing what people in this website can do with it. So yea, pls make it happen!

to TriloTracker: yes!
to GXSCC: also yes!

+100000 for this idea

There is also the DPC chip for Atari 2600 (VCS). Music source is available for the DPC demo on AtariAge.

do you know i have the hardest time figuring out how to best utilise chips that have wavetable synthesis (rather embarrassing admission but there you go)
so perhaps i could do with looking it square in the face!
or triangle in the face... bell in the face
