Music Tracker: MilkyTracker V1.03.01
MilkyTracker is an open source, cross-platform music application for creating .MOD and .XM module files. It attempts to recreate the module replay and user experience of the DOS application Fasttracker II, with special playback modes available for improved Amiga ProTracker 2.x/3.x compatibility.
Marlon Beijer is in the process of porting the tracker to the Amiga platforms (OS3.x, OS4.x, WarpOS, MorphOS, AROS) and adding new features. In the new version now available for AmigaOS 3 first, the "Vamped Edition" has been included. The features included herein had been added by Neoman from the Titan demo group and are:
- Native Amiga support, but still needs RTG (we support P96 and CGX)
- Native 4-channel 8-bit output support on Paula/Commodore
- Native 8-channel 16-bit output on Arne (Apollo-Core) (16 channels are planned with a future core)
- 16-bit PiP display on SAGA (Apollo-Core)
- GadTools based setup dialog to choose the resolution and audio settings
- Titan's Magic Toolbox
- MilkyPlay based console player
This means that SDL is no longer needed in the AmigaOS 3 version. The following is planned for the future:
AmigaOS 3
- Native AHI-driver for software mixing (this part was handled by SDL before)
- AGA 8-bit display via C2P
- OCS/ECS display (not decided enirely on route taken here yet)
- ASM optimization of drawing routines and primitives
- MIDI In/Out
AmigaOS 4, MorphOS
- The features we deem useful for PPC too will trickle down from M68K
- SDL-1.2 support removed, and both MorphOS and AmigaOS 4.x will utilize SDL-2.0 instead
- Fix these targets since they broke somewhere along the way
Allgemein
- MUI based replacement UI for a more native look and feel (probably performance improvements as well) (optional)
- MUI based music player, taking advantage of the music replayer of MilkyTracker
