Now that Soundtracker appears to be broken on debian/lenny, I've been looking for a replacement. Renoise is pretty good but its not free ( as in speech or beer ) and it didn't seem to synch long samples too well against a rhythm section built of one-shots.

The GUI is a bit fiddly on Milkytracker, but its no more difficult to use than soundtracker, just different. And it sounds good. The developers seem very keen on reproducing the sound of the Fasttracker II audio engine. I don't know FT II but Milkytracker sounds tight and crispy. My main problem with MT was that the jack driver didn't work. Frank B. just provided the solution to that one: [2] above. ( Frank i kiss your cheeks! :-) ) which also solved my other problem: how to export only selected instrument tracks to wav. MT's export function exports the whole thing regardless of mute settings. ( that's got to be a feature request. ) enough about me. what do you know? :-) best wishes, G. > > [1] http://www.milkytracker.net/ > [2] http://modarchive.org/forums/index.php?topic=1261.0 > > Ciao _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user
