Is there any reason PowerNoise's production gets inconsistent (specifically while in jam mode), even with the same macro values?

I was playing around in non-edit mode (i.e. jam mode), and stuff gets really inconsistent. I feel like this could be a bug.

Say for example, Tap A Location and LFSR macro are both set to 1. If I set Tap A Location to 0 and back to 1, it still doesn't play any sound unless I reset the LFSR macro value (like setting it to something else and back to 1), or play the song.

I also mess around with Tap A Location in jam mode, and it turns into an Atari wave (i.e. multiple mixed pulse widths), but when I play the song or reset LFSR, it turns into a thin pulse.

Could instrument tones get more consistent while messing around with PowerNoise macros in jam mode?

This is intentional. Changing LFSR parameters without loading the LFSR may result in unexpected results.
Playing the song resets all chips to power on state, so that's why you hear a thin pulse.
