OctaMED starter sample pack?
I've just installed OctaMED v4. I've never used it before but am a little familiar with trackers.
Is there a sample pack I can download to get me started? |

Do you mean actual samples (instruments and the like)? If so, a lot of samples appeared on CU Amiga CD-ROM #8. This can be found on EAB's FTP server. (link to thread).
There's also a great OctaMED V4 PDF userguide too (attached). Hope this helps in some way. |

It all depends on what kind of samples you are looking for.
ADRDesign on this very forum has posted some amazing sample packs I believe would be a great starting point. http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?t=72869 http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?t=76199 http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?t=74916 http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?t=74276 http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?t=72734 http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?t=73138 http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?t=72182 http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?t=72948 |

Brilliant guys! Thank you very much.
If I want to create my own samples on PC and transfer, what format to I need to convert to? |

Thanks Akira.
We're there any good tutorial articles in CU Amiga which covered OctaMED? |

Im following the tutorial on CU Amiga issue 051 - https://archive.org/details/cuamiga-magazine-051
I'm trying to record on track 02 except nothing is being output. Its fine when I'm playing on the keyboard, but once I hit ESC to get to edit mode nothing comes out the speaker! Tracks 1,3 & 4 are fine. Does anyone know what the issue might be? I'm editing the demo song supplied on the coverdisk, thought maybe its a track specific setting which is causing this. |

1) Move along different instrument (by pressing SHIFT+left/right cursors) and check that instrument slot wasn´t empty. 2) To play samples while editing, turn editing on, click PATTERN VIEW at the top right and check for the cursor to be at the --- row (same where notes are displayed), otherwise OctaMED will think you are entering a command and wont play any sound. 3) Of course, check the channel you are entering notes isnt silenced (channel mute buttons). hope u fix it, and thanks for all the comments.

Always wondered if anyone ever got the ST-00: .. ST-01: ... type sample disk collection as a single hard-drive installable pack. There were a lot of mods without included samples in the past.
