Sequencer



The interface is very easy. First at the top left, you see the main command like play and stop button or too the position of the song, music name,...At the top right, you see some menu, by default disk menu. The disk menu is very usefull to load music, sound,...Why a new file selector ? Because this is the quickly way to load a lot of sounds, and open then close the standard file selector is too long. Above this menu you have some icons to access other menu like Fx menu or Tools menu.

At the middle of the screen, you have the pattern editor. The red buttons above each track is to display the panel mixing. The green button is for mute/solo. You can click too on the number of the track to see a pop-up menu to hide some tracks,...At the bottom, you have the recorder allow you to edit and record some new sound.


You must keep in mind Softjee love real time since a long time ago. So all you made is immediatly managed like the number of tracks you can change even during the playing. To write note you can use the computer keyboard and soon a Midi keyboard. The base note is indicated to the right of the pattern editor, by default this is C 3 from C-2 to C7. You can change the base note of the keyboard by editing it or with the touch < and >. See the end of this text for another keyboard shorcut.


For this time, each track is monophonic track but not for a long time. You have severals playing mode. The file playing mode is the default playing mode of the file but you can apply other playing mode like panoramic. You can set too interpolation for all the track or by instrument. For the moment, D.T. use one-sample instrument but not for a long time too. As next version of D.T. is free for you, ask to us to have new versions. You can apply too envelop and digital effects on sound and track.


There're too new commands effects. You have the classic command from 0 to F with the same signification of Protracker commands. You have too effect M to set master volume of the track, effect G to set Global Volume, effect X to set digital effect for the track (00 to set off) and Y effect to set the master effect volume.
