Making music > Exporting notes and their positions to text >

[Noob-tech-ninja]

Hi there guys.

So, back in the day........I used to make music (badly ) using OctaMed
and I thouroughly enjoyed it.

I'm currently trying to re-aquaint myself with making music and trackers in general.

Questions:

1. Is there a way to export the notes and their position to plain text ?

So that I can compare a song track, against a text file, so that I can re-create
it myself ? (Instead of running 2 or more instances of OctaMed or Protracker
etc, etc) ?

2. Do you know of anyway to do this on other platforms and programmes ?

TIA for any help or advice.

OctaMED can "print" modules as text since v4. Just use RAM:modname.txt (or drive:filename.txt) instead of PRT: as output device. OctaMED SoundStudio has some formatting options available .
