8-bit music files sound so much better recorded from Schism Tracker (an Impulse Tracker port for modern hardware) running on a PC when you use the '16-bit, 8-tap FIR Filter', 'Oversampling' and 'Noise Reduction' options in the Preferences menu (shift-F5).

I realise that a purist would never do this, but it does make them far easier on the ear for extended listening sessions. I don't think any other MOD players come even close to the quality of the digital filtering Schism Tracker has to offer. Jeffrey Lim is a genius.
