Macintosh / Vox

« on: August 15, 2009, 02:18:34 »

Now is the time!

I've been planning to post here for a long time so let's see what I have written down in this here note:

Ok, I'm finally going to write this. Should have done it months ago, when I got my MacBook. I went ahead looking for an audio player for OS X well before getting my hands on the hardware knowing iTunes just would not work for me. Used to the format support, compact GUI, no-nonsense approach and accurate module playback of XMPlay, I was basically looking for, well a Mac OS XMPlay of sorts.

When rebuilding the MilkyTracker website and looking for things to link, I found Tool Player, which basically was the ticket, being based on BASS. So I happily linked it and was done. Then, later, when I actually needed it myself Tool Player seemed to have vanished, but I soon found out it had just been renamed to Vox. Phew.

So, there you have it, in case you already didn't know: Vox @ http://voxapp.net/. While all the features and options of XMPlay are not (yet?) there, the playback is as excellent and it also plays a variety of audio stream formats Apple isn't inclined to support. All in all, the number one OS X audio player, in this household at least. And I hear the developer is planning to take things multi-platform in the future, so be on the lookout for that. There's also a forum and a Last.fm group for Vox users. See you there!

MilkyTracker Support / Re: Loading Multiple OS Versions on One Flash Drive

« on: August 13, 2009, 11:09:02 »

The Windows versions are self-contained. On OSes with Xs in their name, the config file is stored at $home. You'd probably need to poke the source code to make Milky behave similarly to the Windows version and use the config file in the folder.

Wanted: Music for Projects / Re: I need music for a demoscene.tv jingle!!!

This duplicate has additional sample text indicating the composer is Jesper Kyd, who has a website at http://www.jesperkyd.com/ .

Not being familiar with the song I took a look at it and thought it could be fun to remake with some polish for your animation. What do you think?

Oldskool, nice. Very competent firsties, although very "standard" stuff. I  look forward to hearing more, possibly with more personality.

MilkyTracker Support / Re: add different samples

« on: July 22, 2009, 01:14:06 »

You are trying to build a multi-sample instrument by loading samples into the 16 sample slots of one instrument. This is a bit more advanced stuff and involves mapping these samples to different keys in the instrument editor. (All the 0's in the piano keyboard refer to sample #0.)

I think what you want is simply selecting another INSTRUMENT slot, while the selected sample slot stays at 0. The basic situation is that you only use sample slot 0 on different instrument slots for different samples in your song.

Tracking / Re: IT tracker for Mac

I meant the color. It is an odd brown color.

Is there no color configuration like on IT/ST3?
