I've been looking all my life for a good HTML5 module tracker. I hope you eventually add all Protracker bugs in there and have multi-version support.
However, I've noticed some problems that I hope you can fix and hopefully some new features.
- The font needs improvement. Quotation marks and apostrophes as well as the @ symbol need to be implemented.
- The pattern loop start feature needs to be added, too. Even the original Protracker has it.
- When I load in an 8 channel mod, the message that comes up says they are not supported...yet. I hope that means you will support them in the future.
- Add the option of playing audio with no interpolation. I don't even think the Amiga uses interpolation. Whether it does or not, the Bassoon Tracker plays modules too muffled.
- If you plan to support 8 channel mods, you should support mods that go over the note limit. When I play a mod that goes over that note limit like LHS' "x4.mod", the notes are played almost correctly, except they're kind of distorted.
- Please write the documentation sometime. I know it's obvious, but it has the opportunity to really help someone new to this tracker and trackers in general.
- It would help if you at least put a search feature for when looking in the tracker's ModArchive. That, and/or not all of the artists in the actual ModArchive are listed in this tracker. I couldn't even find any of my songs, and trust me, at least some of my Amiga tracker modules are in the actual ModArchive.
- Improve the sample editor. Add copying and pasting for the sample editor, as well as upsampling and downsampling. I know this might make it too much like OpenMPT, but it's good for making bass samples and is needed in case you didn't know that you needed a note of a higher octave than 3 or of a lower octave than 1.
- Add support for the OpenMPT keyboard layout. Maybe I'm the problem, being too used to OpenMPT, but please make it happen. Especially since the only way to switch octaves that I know of for now is to use the piano, which is actually a nice feature, no kidding.
- Add the ability to copy and paste notes, effects, samples, and a combination of any of those 3.
If I'm going to use this tracker, I want it to be the most convenient it can and I want it to be easy to use. I hope you can add these.
