Tracker for tiny tunes
Not a musician, but asking for a non-C64 one who wants to make SID tunes with some artificial limitations. So apologies for the RTFM-y question, but what's a good tracker to make tiny tunes in? Like, small in byte size? |

Oh I saw this, but my brain didn't alert me this was the thing I'm looking for. Sounds good, I'll pass it on. Thanks! |

How tiny is tiny? :)
Surely some trackers can produce reasonably small SID tunes, but tiny usually comes with a bit of handcrafted bespoke code and optimisation. |

I'm working on and using a tracker for some upcoming 4k entries. It has a few uncommon features like an additional 'voice' for drums that gets mixed into the other voices, recursive pattern definition and an additional 'voice' for transposing and some randomizing commands for a simple procedural element.
If you're familiar with the acme compiler and do not mind editing music in the form of byte sequences, I am very much looking for more feedback on this.
The player has a multitude of features that can be switched on and off to minimize footprint of unused features (wabetable instruments, randomization etc). Memory footprint for a small song is around 500 to 700 bytes as unpacked prg.
I plan to release a version of the player in the nearer future but looking for more feedback on it. |

Isn’t NinjaTracker V2.04 an option, perhaps? |

SID Factory II has some tiny drivers, they are quite limited however. |
