![]() I feel that trackers are underappreciated because they are perceived as being outdated and difficult to use. The drum track should be without feedback when played in the surround channel.This thread was created because I wanted to facilitate discussion about an incredibly underrated type of software for electronic music composition: music trackers! If you don't know what they are, feel free to read the Wikipedia article about the subject here! The heavy echoing is actually common among remakes/remixes, more so in the anime. it is important because it should match and/or exceed the NDS version, particularly played as an SPC. In SPC700 you can add/remove features, basically listen to what happens without the echo buffer or with Surround Sound disabled (not all games use this) and even taking the FIR Filter off (lower your volume, games like Mortal Kombat use aggressive feedback.) I believe with SPC700 Player "50% (Mix) feedback" is accurate, based on SNESAMP plugin it into smconvert and it should generate an SPC for you. SNESMOD, though already posted, is found here ĭrag the Eterna Forest. You can "freely" reduce this for readability, in our case the Eterna MIDI can be brought down to 11 channels. Some of the loop points may not be "perfect" but it's hidden pretty well.Ĥ. Knowing the "powers of 2's" can help with this, and frankly if you end up with a odd number then you're doing something wrong. The samples in the IT file should all be divisible by 16. For more accurate/reliable results you're going to want Note Cut.ģ. Default MIDI New Note Action is Note Fade for duplicate action. You can look at the Sample Map to determine this.Ģ. You will have to edit this in instrument properties if you decide to keep the MIDI instruments. ![]() MIDI uses multi-sampled instruments/multiple note entries. As a result I'm going to try and break it down.ġ. I included (normally shouldn't) a midi for you to open with OpenMPT and look at the difference. it files, the one pertaining to your case mostly is Eterna Forest. The "Starter" folder I shared from the one drive contained to. The fact that it's "non-continuous" may not make editing easier but finding mistakes, rotten rhythms, etc. Using a MIDI editor might help you rearrange the notes where you actual start the remix but it's always gonna be split into patterns with 64 bars when imported into OpenMPT. SagaX has been pretty much on point to say the least Optimally the loop should span over a smooth sustained part of the sample, but finding good loop points is an art in itself (especially when they have to be in specific places, like being divisible by 16), and no tracker in the world can help you there. right at the sample start, in the sample's attack phase). While the loop points are now divisible by 16 in most of your samples, most of them are not put in sensible places (e.g. By just importing MIDI data into OpenMPT you basically just give up the way you'd normally structure your module, because OpenMPT's MIDI import cannot do this for you. ![]() Of course if you just import a MIDI file then things might not be neatly organized into 4 bars per pattern or so, making it harder to edit, but OpenMPT is explicitely not a MIDI editor. You can also resize the patterns if you want to have more information in one pattern, but IMHO there is not much benefit in using patterns longer than 128 rows or so.Īnd more importantly, the conversion tool will probably not anticipate modules with > 200 rows per pattern, because that's not part of the original IT specifications. ![]() 2 or 4 bars in each pattern, and every 4 patterns form a group. The point of having more than just one big pattern is that you can neatly organize and structure your module, typically you have e.g. I think here you're arguing against the nature of almost every tracker in existence. It may sound acceptable and even decent but once you get a hold of that echo buffer I don't think you'll want to go back. I needed to go closer and that led me to OpenMPT & SNESMOD. First step was learning MilkyTracker but even though I'd imitate echo/delay within the score and channels it wasn't enough. I wanted to make original songs that sound like Donkey Kong Country using its samples. Awhile back before that I had the program but no idea how to do anything so just removed it. MilkyTracker is where I started and actually NEEDED a youtube tutorial to get started. If the issue is simply you're unfamiliar with OpenMPT then we can leave it at that. Do you mind sharing us your project? Even if just a bit screenshots, while not as useful, might help crack it down. Normally this shouldn't happen but in the coding community it isn't too uncommon. I've not fully migrated into OpenMPT but it's difficult to assess the core of the problem. When it comes to learning ANY tracker the most fundamental thing, in my opinion, is learning the keybindings and interface. ![]()
