Compiling Carillon player example not working
Hello folks, I am really newbie to Gameboy development so probably stupid questions.
Trying to compile example1.asm from Carillon Editor to play tune on gb. I setted up RGBDS on osx and after adding missing EQU's to source it compiles just fine. But no sound from rom file it produces.
I compile/link/fix with following:
rgbasm -o example1.o example1.asm
rgblink -o baz.gb example1.o
rgbfix -v baz.gb
As test tune i used fruitless from Carillon package, which i first splitted with carillon.exe tool. Any obvious mistakes i am making here?

Re: Compiling Carillon player example not working
i am not too knowlageable about this but dont you have to write to NR50, NR51 etc to make the gameboy play sound
see at the very bottom of this page here:

i would assume that you do this in your Player_MusicStart function but i cant find it in your source
sorry i cant be more help

Re: Compiling Carillon player example not working
It includes music and it's player starting at $4000 with incbin at bottom of source and then calls the needed routines like Player_MusicStart (which points to $4003). So actual player source is not shown here as it's just loaded as blackbox, which just should work.
That's why i'm little puzzled what i am doing wrong as Carillon editor, at least used to be quite popular in Game boy scene and should work 'out of the box' quite easily.

It is a music player, you type in the code/rhythms and such. And it plays it.
Working in Gameboy BASIC.
