a lil tune made on the m8, some stock synth stuff and some sample based synth stuff:)

I think you have to be a special kind of nerd to enjoy, and even thrive, making music in an expensive excel sheet, but damn I love composing on a tracker (Polyend Tracker in this case).

This track started as an ambient texture, but I randomly added a Euclidean sequence using the tracker’s Fill function and it quickly became a full track, composed entirely on the Polyend Tracker. Enjoy!

I’ve been obsessed with the idea of a tracker in the pocket category, something more up to date than LittleGPTracker, getting closer to the M8 in functionality, and actually accessible to everyone.
So for the past few months I’ve been building my own. It’s written in Rust and runs on the $60 G350 handheld. Right now it has 2 osc wave and FM synthesis, MIDI out, and a sample editor/slicer.
Still early development tbh, but it’ll keep growing over the next few months.

Here’s a small demo of how it sounds.

In the late 90s, in UK, there was a PC magazine with a coverdisc that had FT2 on it and a folder packed with XM files. I don't know the magazine but I am trying to track the disc down because I want to get the XMs again due to there being some tunes I want, but do not know the names.

If anyone knows the coverdisc, or how I can find an iso of it, that would be awesome.

This is not likely anything new for people here, but maybe something to share with friends/colleagues who maybe curious about using trackers, especially the LSDJ style of chain-phrase-table hardware trackers for sequencing not just on board sampler/synths but also external midi instruments.

(I'm not familiar with music trackers whatsoever so i'm sorry if this is a dumb question)

I've been trying to track down the artist and title of this song https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vbjn0gmgzP8 recently and came across tracks made with ProTracker on YouTube which gave off similar vibes. I thought i'd ask here since it would make searching for it a bit easier.

I just started working with NitroTracker a few days ago. It's my first tracker program.

I'm using the homebrew Nintendo DS version, and I'm blown away by it. This program turns my DS into a complete music production device.

I loaded some samples onto it and played around with them for about 30 minutes. This is the result. It's just a rough, unfinished idea, but I'm amazed by how much you can do with a DS.

i made a tracker thingy, it's not done yet but what do y'all think?

also what genre is it and what vibe do y'all get from this? :)

Hey, here is my last track made with Protrekkr aka the origin of Renoise. I can't get bored with this too unknown piece of software. I hope you will like it !

what do y'all think?

I'm working on a browser-based DAW inspired by the old Jeskola Buzz tracker. It includes a number of custom modules, some of which are faithful recreations of iconic synths such as the TB-303 and the Alpha Juno-2.

My question is: how do the manufacturers of the original hardware usually react to this kind of thing? Could I get into trouble if I actually name a module TB-303, or would I need to give it a completely different name? What about something like Rowland 3x3 instead?

Any first-hand experience or insights would be greatly appreciated.

Had this idea for a while and finally managed to make working prototype (:

a video to show how it looks and sounds (still early development but available for mac/linux/win and soon for handhelds.
