GoatTracker 2 Fork - interested?
I fiddled around with the GT2 sources lately - just for my personal interest. It's just visual stuff for "shits and giggles" ...
Currently I'm asking myself (or asking *you* here) if someone else may find this useful.
Checkout http://gt2fork.jansalleine.com/ and tell me what you think about it.
For now I just provided an experimental win32 download, but of course I will share the sources and do some more work on it if anyone bothers ;-)
When I mailed my zeroes to dots idea to Cadaver he said, he liked it, but feels GT development pretty much to be "finished". So I don't know if he'll work on GT anymore.
The current version runs - at least for me - on linux and windows - don't know anything about OSX or whatever this apple system is called yet :-)
Have fun!

Multispeed is your friend then ;) |

@TDM: Tempo is directly tied to the frames on C64. So 03 is 3 frames etc... So as Linus suggested, if you i.e. want to go "half a frame" you've got to choose 2X speed, meaning the routine is called twice per frame. Still tempo (if you think possible BPM) is limited on raster / frame based playroutines. |

That. And another option I use sometimes instead of going multi-speed is "funk tempo" or what it's called. Having the time of a pattern step alternate between e.g. 5 and 4 frames, you get an "effective tempo" of 4.5 (and just have the smallest-unit notes a little bit "too late", which often sounds quite nice).
BTT -- I prefer the original color scheme and about the dots: This is no doubt an improvement to the UI design, still I miss the original zeroes, just because -- you know, getting used to something is strong. But I think if GT UI would change this way, I would like it after a few days of using it :) |

Goat Tracker has funk tempo, us $E and point to speedtable. Agree about the color scheme, it's as bit hard to read. |

I personally hand you a medal and a cigar if you manage to implement a graphical pattern sequence editor add on-screen controls to resize and change patterns as well as a more intuitive instrument library plus an arpeggio/filter section that is optically divided rather than being one big cluster of numbers. But hey... when did i last compose a SID with goattracker? 2017? |

works nicely here. has anyone produced a version of goattracker for windows that supports MIDI keyboards? that would be wonderful :) |

Why not template the color scheme and let people set as they'd like? ;-) |

That sounds actually as if you copied it right from my todo list :-) |
