or Milky Tracker

derringer · 22 August 2007, 00:31

Madtracker can handle mods like fasttracker 2, and it is running on winxp

Samurai_Crow · 22 August 2007, 18:27

ModPlug Tracker is probably the best tracker for the PC although I also use MilkyTracker since Milky works on AmigaOS 4 also.

Thanks for the info, OddbOd!
I can't believe it was well over 4 years ago i was looking at this thread.
How time flies!

I use Modplug very often (to check new mods when downloading).

Works every time, even with power-packed mods!

Zetr0 · 16 November 2007, 21:19

I use Modplug and the PC version of Med Sound Studio, damn fine players / creators the pair!

adonay · 27 November 2007, 16:06

What about Winamp ? it will play almost any known mod format , some mods will sound wrong though. In my option the Skale tracker form skale.org is best and second after that comes FT2 that is far behind production i am afraid as it died years ago.....

Samurai_Crow · 28 November 2007, 19:10

Skale tracker doesn't play all FT2 mods correctly. Milky plays them correctly. Milky also has a similar user-interface to FT2.

If you want a tracker that uses VSTi instruments then Skale can work but otherwise I'd go with Milky or ModPlug Tracker.

MPT FOR THE WIN!!!!!!!

ahem..... sorry.....

I have noticed that on a few mod types, it doesn't bend the pitch enough compared when it is played through deliplayer or pc medSS....

anyone know why?

Winamp classic (2.95) + BASS module plugin for me

Frog · 02 December 2007, 23:18

As Osh, i use XMPlay & the excellent DELIX plugin, with that i can play anything even Hively Tracker mods.

There's a BASS system which is develop by Un4seen developments, same author as XMPlay.

heavy · 03 December 2007, 14:07

yep, XMPlay is very best (It's the only player capable of playing correctly the mod "Manga Part 1" from MangaArt/Arkham slideshow)

Frog · 03 December 2007, 21:38

@Heavy : great slideshow with effectively nice music. Whole slideshow is really well designed.

mabus · 05 December 2007, 18:39

xmms is quite alright and has plugins to play mods and sids and whatever... There is also http://www.soundtracker.org/ - an attempt to create a soundtracker like app for free environments.

That's a coincidence not an indication of a better player. The original demo's replayer and XMPlay both use vblank timing, if you try the demo on an NTSC machine (or UAE in NTSC mode) you will see why this is not a good thing

It play's correctly in all players if you remove the F21 command from line 0A of pattern 02 or by playing it in UADE with the -x vblank option.

adonay · 09 December 2007, 12:05

Ahh i forgot to add the best IMO is An amiga so why not run UAE and use some amiga app there ? Ofcource i understand if you want to web browse etc at same time .... Milkyplay maybe then....

Indeed. Though the Settlers ingame music get's a serious slowdown on one of the patterns and plays that way until the end...

meynaf · 21 December 2007, 17:22

Why not just using UAE and DeliTracker ?

Shoonay · 21 December 2007, 17:27

Me? Too much waste on the horse power ,while WinUAE play's in the background, and me is browsing the net, communicating and downloading torrents

meynaf · 21 December 2007, 17:34

Are you saying that UAE takes too much cpu ?

Could be a feature request...
