what do people use these days to make hardware-accurate #NES #famicom music? is it still #FamiTracker (or one of its forks, like 0CC-) or is there better software available now?

I made a test ROM for the Oeka Kids drawing tablet for Famicom based on the description at NESdev Wiki. I had someone with a tablet try it.

It didn't work.

The tablet's slow microcontroller requires a lot of waiting in the read routine. The MCU turned out to be so slow that reading a pen position took 67 scanlines, or one-fourth of an NTSC frame. Neither Mesen nor FCEUX modeled this slowness.

It took three revisions before I had a read routine I was happy with. All for a silly little Anpanman licensed game.
