That would be a really cool feature to add, perhaps modules could have a "double mode" setting that would give you 2 of each channel, side by side, to work with.
Implementing that in Trackerboy shouldn't be too hard, although I'd have to add support for it in the back end, and of course the pattern editor will need to be able to show more than 4 channels. Or maybe it could just utilize two separate module files, and play them back at the same time.
Implementing that in a driver like LSDj would be difficult I imagine, as getting two game boys in sync with each other is tricky. Although I'm sure the gbdev community has some expertise in that.
I am fine with adding this feature, but I cannot give an ETA on when it will be implemented at this time. I'll add the help wanted tag in case anyone else wants to take a stab at it in the mean time.
I think doubling the channels could be a super useful and also unique feature. More often I'm 'experimenting' if some songs sound better with pattern in Pulse Channel or with the same pattern in Wave Channel. In case I'd had double the channels I could simply make a copy, keep the original and switch on/off on the fly. Hope someone understands what I mean. :)
A feature to have twice as many channels in one module would be great. LSDj has a similar feature when using the link cable that syncs two Gameboys' playback for double the channels and I'd like to be able to do the same in Trackerboy
