My brain can't process tracker interfaces when making music. Is there any way to implement a view that has a piano roll like Cakewalk or Mario Paint?

zooperdanDeveloper43 days ago

Yes, it's possible to implement but that defeats the purpose of a tracker. It's important to honor it's heritage, and lots of composers of retro music are used to this way of creating music. If you want bars and blocks there are heaps of great music software available that has it :)

Heya, I've been using PT2 clone for a while and these additions sound great!

I only use linux, so a native linux build, or better yet open repository wold be awesome :)

zooperdanDeveloper43 days ago

Hey. I plan on doing a Linux build very soon. I wanted to get the Windows version out first and get some public testing and feedback first.

Varin0x43 days ago

Awesome. It does run via wine so I'll give it a shot next time I'm tracking.

I have tested the Linux build available, and can report that it works great for me on CachyOS (arch-based).

Great, thanks :)

support for more of 128k samples. I know that is incompatible with replayers but can be useful for load them for cut before.

zooperdanDeveloper42 days ago

I like the idea. A way to implement this is to allow user to load extra large samples into a separate sample buffer which is not part of the song data, but available to edit in the sampler, so you can copy/cut, add filters and all that jazz. When module is saved that sample buffer is just ignored.

anouk3342 days ago

yes, If you implement this, it would be a good idea to display a notification saying something like:

- Hey! You're trying to load a sample larger than 128k! Bear in mind that this won't be saved in the .mod file.

zooperdanDeveloper40 days ago

I noticed that there is a flag which turns on/off 128kb support. You can control that from protracker.ini

64K_LIMIT=TRUE

I haven't tested this fully so I can't vouch for it.

anouk3339 days ago

I tested and it works. but I mean more of 128k

You've got your wish. Check out latest version :)

Keyboard shortcuts -screen would be nice if it does not exist yet :)

zooperdanDeveloper24 days ago

Shift+F1 in latest version :)

Since you already started doing some nice file browser improvements, I would love to get an actual scrollbar to drag through big folders.

zooperdanDeveloper21 days ago

Thanks. I added it to the to-do list.

Is there way to disable cursor follow when playing pattern?

zooperdanDeveloper20 days ago

You mean the current row highlight? It's not possible to disable that.

muLperi19 days ago

I mean that the row would not move when playing back so it would be easier to edit and listen at the same time.

zooperdanDeveloper19 days ago

Ah, interesting. I'll think about that. That could potentially be useful yeah.

I have the following future feature requests:

- MIDI output (I'd like to use MIDI hardware with the tracker)
- An internal mixer (to mix the hardware *g*)
- High-resolution graphics and fullscreen mode (or does that already exist?)
- Render the entire track or stems as WAV files

thx for this great tool

zooperdanDeveloper3 days ago

I've added a function that render individual samples/stems as wav files.

MIDI output and internal mixer is not going to happen, sorry.
Fullscreen mode exist using F11.

High-resolution graphics will never happen in zoopertracker, but far down the line I might fork this into an entirely new and more modern project.

Thank you for your suggestions.
