Simply trying out this recent fork of FamiTracker by taking an original and cover I've done with j0CC-FamiTracker and Dn-FamiTracker, and changing them up a bit to make use of the features introduced in E-FT.
What makes this FamiTracker fork different from the previous ones?
The changes are only on the 2A03. There's an extra pulse width (37.5%), the third channel has three waveforms that can be chosen (sawtooth, 50% square, and a sine) in addition to the triangle wave, and there are more noise pitches. This basically transforms the 2A03 into some fantasy chip, so songs made here can not be played back on a real NES or Famicom. It's quite interesting, though.
The info above applies to E-FT v0.0.1.3. Versions after this have put this fantasy chip as its own system separate from the 2A03, and E-FamiTracker has become a multi-system chiptune tracker (similar to DefleMask, but with a large focus on 8-bit chips).

(Update 7/29/2024: The author has once again made this public again, although it is archived as it's no longer being worked on. As such, v0.0.1.3 is the latest stable release on the GitHub link above, though one can compile the program from source to see what was last done to E-FT before development on it stopped in 2022).
Songs used:
00:00 - Electrical Interference (original song)
04:05 - Grass Valley (cover, song from the game Road Rash).
