Which tracker?
I'm an old bloke. Part of a local group way back. Used to make stuff on Huelsbeck's Soundmonitor and later the Rockmon.
Then moved on to Amiga and then the ST - attached to a bunch of Synthies.
But now I'm back to the scene and want to do something "Sidish," because that particular sound never left my heart.
The Gretchenfrage is: Which tool? I've loaded up the Soundmonitor and was puzzled how it works. Seems 30 years of
absence has wiped my memory *laughs*
Surely there are better tools? And what about digi-drums? I liked that Rockmon.
Stuff like Goat-Tracker for convenience? Is it true to the sound? Or does it sound different on VICE and a real thing?
(Yeah, I know that every SID sounds a bit different...) |

@Jammer: Hijack it! No prob here :)
@DKT: Rockmon for two simple reasons: A) The Drums :p
B) The fourth voice!! <<! <-(!) <<<!!! :)
I'll give Modern Love Classics a shot. A lil late now...
Ah, by the way, I had a rendezvouz with GoatTracker. What immediately hits me is, that EVERY FUCKING Tracker is complicated as hell! No chance without a manual! Hey! It's fucking 2017! Ok, some helpful popups on a native tracker are difficult, but not impossible. But crisscross stuff? Should be mousedriven and hovering over a topic should explain. Or is the scene too scenish and their tools too toolish? :P |

The above mentioned demo crashes on VICE 3.1 with a CPU Jam at
$02AA. Win8.1 x64. 3 times. :(
But I dl'd "Nights falls over Amydala." Yay! Certainly NOT my style, but an interesting sound for sure! But no, Jammer, can't beat the Didi-Drums. Oops! Digi-Drums. And yes, perhaps
my memory is *really* fucked up after 30 years, hearing is believing...perhaps I'll drop the whole topic after I heard the quality of 'em Rockmon-Drums...*grin*
Gimme a couple o' days :p |

You probably want to try turning on "True Drive Emulation" in VICE. |

TDE should be enabled by default... perhaps the problem is using x64 instead of x64sc? |

Yeah, True Drive Emulation is on. And using X64 too. Will try
it on another setup tomorrow. This was on my laptop. *Might*
using a nightly build, not sure about that. |

@FASTFrost: What is that mean?
You are not a musician?
Perhaps take a walk to the Coder's Den then? |

Well, this is something off Topic now. Looked over the forums but didn't find anything useful anyway:
My PC archive of C64 has grown like a cancer. It's now at 33.6 GB.
Try to maintain and get as much over to the real thing (I'm the one using 5 1/4 floppy disks) and it *grows*...
YAY! IT GROWS! Aaaaarrrrgghhhaaaaaiiiiieeeeee!
Of course not the software. It's scans of Zzap64!, 64'er, Happy Computer, Compute! and the like. Also Boxshots, Manuals.
A whole archive, but WIP.
Anyone else as mad as me? |
