Furious Advance Tracker, also known as FAT, is a Gameboy Advance tracker coded with C language.

The aim of FAT is to provide a simple tool to compose chiptune tracks on your GBA. You can freely download the ROM file in order to test it with an emulator or, better, with your real Gameboy Advance.

Features

Switch between features with the FAT popup.
Live screen. Project management screen, song screen, the sequencer, etc.
Save tracks on your GBA.
Smartphone compatible (with emulator).
Documentation (French and English).

Installation

Furious Advance Tracker can be used your computer or smarphone with a GameboyAdvance emulator (such as VisualBoyAdvance). Although an emulated sound can never be equal to the real one. To execute FAT on a real GBA, you’ll need:

A true GBA or a Gameboy Micro.
An EZ-Flash, SuperCardToSD, or other cartridge.

Version differences:

FAT_v1.3.0.gba / FAT_v1.3.0-RC1.gba - "classic" rom, with kit.
FAT_v1.3.0-RC1_default.gba - "empty" rom, without kit.
FAT_v1.3.0-RC1_buildable.gba - "build" rom, you can add kit.
