An easy tracker
Is there other crossplatform besides goat tracker? A friend of mine wants to compose some sid tunes but he is finding goattracker too complex.

I only know of JITT64 (http://jitt64.sourceforge.net/), but I don't think it's any easier.
It might look less intimidating, but in the end it's probably gonna be the same.
A less complex editor will mean that the tune will have crappy instruments. |

What exactly does your friend find complex with GT? I mean there's lots of editors which are much more complex and I found GT to be the easiest cross-platform editor so far. If he's not used to trackers in general (i.e. ones on Amiga/PC) then you may be stuck until someone makes an easier/beginner's editor. |

Thank you Mr.SID
@Conrad:
What he told was "this tracker is not friendly for people like me who don't know the SID"
I have coded the c64 version of a game of his, now I am just waiting for the music. He coded the game for the Speccy and also someone ported it to the megadrive. He must be wanting to port the AY tune to the SID I think. |

GoatTracker appears complex at first, but with a bit of effort, it's not that hard to use. If I recall right, zerozillion wrote a guide for it. Should be here on CSDb somewhere.

GT is great. Maybe, the way of thinking of parameters cause a little confusion for your friend.
If it is so, take a look at Music Studio 2:
Music Studio 2.0.0.16
It's an old-style .DUR base editor. That workflow has its difficulties, too - on the other hand the sound editing is pretty simple compared to GT.
If your friend have any questions about it, just PM me. |

Quoting AlgarbiWhat he told was "this tracker is not friendly for people like me who don't know the SID"
Making music for the SID is all about knowing the SID. |

Everything is difficult if you are not prepared to use the time it takes, to get to know things.
Stop asking for "easy tracker" and instead start to learn to use the program, then ask for help when you run into problems. |
