Hello everybody...
I am looking for some collection of old MODs from approx. 1988-1992..I would like to find certain songs, but I dont know names. Would it be possible to download these from your site in a certain package? Or is here still the opportunity to download the entire archive via torrents file?
THANKS.

Here you go (http://modarchive.org/index.php?TMATorrentsAbout)... Torrents are still up :)
-
thank you very much. which one is the best to download, the largest one ? By the way, there are not enough seeds, it will last whole my life till I download the largest one :-D :-\
-
The 29 GB file contains most of the modules, the addendum adds another GB of modules that were "lost" in the 29 GB archive. Waveworld is something entirely different, it's a collection of samples. About the "not enough seeds" thingy: If you want to remedy that situation, then please do not the torrent files from your computer after you finished downloading it so we get more seeds.
-
Okay, thank you :)
Sorry for my neverending questions ;) is there any opportunity to download the exact songs that were included to database of the old ProTracker program used on Commodore computers?
I attached one midi melody that is from one old module that I heard once, but couldnt find it any more...so please, if you know a name of it, let me now. THANKS VERY MUCH! ;)

Torrent stuff scares me :o
-
can you elaborate on that? what's so scary about torrents? :P
-
FYI we are planning a new torrent for the end of this year. jantore will be taking care of it, as he has a mirror machine onsite. we will be disposing of the old snapshot, i believe. nothing is 100% guaranteed, though.

Well Jojo. just that I have heard horror stories about others hacking into you, or even implicating you in other "illegal" downloads. There is a witch hunt going on with torrents these days it seems. :-\
-
I'm not sure if I got what you mean, but I guess you mean that people get blamed for downloading "illegal stuff" even if they never used torrents or only downloaded legal suff? It happens that people get blamed for downloading stuff even if they never did that - But in that case, it doesn't matter if you downloaded nothing at all or if you only downloaded legal stuff - in both cases, you're not guilty of anything. And the modarchive torrents are 100% legal. :]
-
and that's why i love scenemusic. you can download a lot of great music without having risk to be judged for it.
-
Oh I definitely know there is nothing illegal here, Jojo :)
And for the record I did start downloading them, and wow I was amazed how many people are so darn talented in tracking. Now I feel intimidated to even try .. LOL
Anyhow, thank you ModArchive, and to all you excellent composers for these :)
-
I felt the same way, and I still do. Slightly intimidated :)
My main mode of composing has been in the hardware synth workstations with Cakewalk sequencers up until recently. Since August, I've made a bunch of tunes in Renoise, last time I tracked with samples was in 1996 and that was awful bad (check m.mod on the archive).
-
Hi Mod, yes me too..mostly a hardware, tape, mixer sorta guy. But I have always been fascinated with this area of music making :)
Well anyway, the worst ever music attempts are yet to come..Me! LOL
-
Anyone want to burn these to DVD, as I am running off an unsecured internet connection which is not very fast.....

haha :D "Eyes are afraid to do it, while hands do it", as we russians say, Jojo ;)
jackthetab, if you want to have DVDs with MODs, then you should try looking at modland.com
BUT: there is A GREAT, HOLY WEIRDLY HUGE, GIGABYTE-ISHLY IMMENSE number of mods there. and you would probably spend at least a whole year diggin in them.
-
so anybody knows the attached mod ???

Okay, thank you :)

it's funny but just today, 11 years after my original post, I found the MOD I was looking for. :)
It's called Hightop from Dr. Awesome.
If anyone is interested, here it is http://amp.dascene.net/downmod.php?index=19362

Wow. A 11 year old thread you got to necro and you found the mod you were looking for! That is cool. I also note that it's a bit strange, a gzipped mod and the filename is mod.hightop (instead of the reverse). Anyway I downloaded it, if you were hunting for a 11 years it must be good! :-D

It is/was pretty common on the Amiga (mod.songname). Since AMP is focussed on the Amiga scene, they chose to go with Amiga conventions rather than PC conventions.
