[Discussion] New module format - openModplug

<< < (9/10) > >>

Saga Musix:
sure check the mpt forums :P

a short explanation (i haven't really tested it yet, so this may be partly wrong): you can set the tuning of every note of an instrument.
normally, it would be like this:
C-4: 22050
C-5: 44100
C-6: 88200

You can edit it using the new feature:
C-4: 32000
C-5: 44100
C-6: 64000

in this way, you can play other scales than the standard 12-tone scale more easily. it may also be useful for effects.
btw, this is not done by using frequencys but by multiplication.

Eagle:
Lol, it's like what you can do with Pulse Dream and Pulse Tools (not publicly available) then. Seems useful for some oriental instruments which uses quarter sharps, otherwise not very useful for anything.

Saga Musix:
i guess it can be useful in various music styles, not only oriental stuff... I can image using it for drumsets for example... still, i'm not completely sure if that's all correct what i'm saying about this feature.

Aymes:
I think any new format is good news for the community.

However, it's been a while since we've seen anything which matches IT or FT2 in popularity - saying that, even when those formats were introduced it took quite some time for S3M to be replaced in players and such...

I've seen a few hopefulls in new formats over the years - I still believe Buzz could have been the next big tracker if development had continued...Renoise sounds great but is hella complicated to use - even for an "experienced" tracker such as myself.

I want something like IT, but better! *whine whinge*

Saga Musix:
Then MPTM is maybe your choice... ;D The format is similar to IT, but it will expand in the future for sure!
