  product  and  now  released  as  Shareware,   this  is  an  excellent  music
  composition  package.  It  allows the soundchip and/or sampled sound  to  be
  used.  Your notes are placed directly onto the stave so you will need to  be
  able  to read music to use this program.  Numerous samples are  provided  on
  disk  for  use  in your own compositions and your musical  notation  can  be
  printed out.  A number of associated programs are also on disk. Soundmachine
  ST is fully controlled by the mouse and therefore easy to use. Thanks to Bob

  files  in Microsoft's WAV format on an STE or TT.  C source is  included  to
  allow you to play WAV files in your own programs.

  MUS.3864C   PROTRACKER  v2 by Karl Anders Øygard and Hans-Arild  Runde  -  A
  fully  functional  4 channel sample synthesiser.  Originally intended  as  a
  commercial package,  the authors have decided to release it as Shareware. It
  is  fully  compatible  with Protracker 2 on the Amiga,  but  has  many  more
  features.  It  even handles compressed MOD files and lets you compress  your
  own.  From  the  authors of Esion Tracker on MUS.162 and ProTracker  1.3  on
  DEM.3316. Without a doubt, this is the best MOD file editor available at any
  price.  There are 3 versions on disk, for ST, STE, and TT. Register with the
  author  and  make  sure you get the most out  of this  incredible  piece  of
  software.  The registered version allows up to 32 MODs to be edited at once,
  has a built in sampler,  polyphonic Midi support and much more!  BACKTRACK -
  Plays Soundtracker 2.2 or Pro/Noisetracker modules in the  background.  Runs
  either as a program or an accessory. STE or TT only.

  MUS.4148 DESKTRACKER v1.30 - An accessory for playing Protracker modules  in
  the background on the ST, STE, TT and Falcon. It also runs as an application
  under MultiTos. DIGITAL SIGNAL PROCESSOR by K Lord - Creates filters for use
  with audio samples,  eg;  to cut out low frequency rumble or high  frequency
  hiss.  With PLAY.PRG in the same folder, samples may be loaded, filtered and
  replayed  via Hippo or Replay hardware or through the  monitor.  HARD  DRIVE
  RECORDING KIT by Dan Hollis - Lets you use your sampling cartridge and  hard
  drive for recording (actually floppies work as well),  i.e. sample length is
  limited by disk space rather than RAM. Sampling frequency is fixed at 20 kHz
  and  output  to Replay 4 only.  I cannot say whether it will work  on  other
  Replay samplers,  but it certainly does NOT work with Replay 16. LONGPLAY by
  Michael  Hodgkinson  - An STE sample player which  reads  continuously  from
  disk.  As it's playing one sample,  it loads the next.  This allows  lengthy
  samples  to  be played back on small memory  machines.  An  editing  program
  allows  you  to accurately splice the samples together.  Longplay  uses  AVR
  format samples and runs at 6.25 Khz.  STE only,  Needs 1 Meg.  PT PLAYER  by
  Petri Kuittinen - Plays Noisetracker and Protracker MODs on all ST's in  any
  resolutions.  Although not tested on TT and Falcon,  it should work on these
  computers  too.  QD PLAY by Dave Baggett - A utility to play 8-bit  samples.
  Copy the PLAY.PRG to your Auto folder so that samples play samples on  boot-
  up,  via STE, Hippo or Replay. Command lines are easily created using a text
  editor.  SOUND PLAY - A DMA sample player by Richard Kurz.  Plays at various
  rates,  up  to 50 kHz in mono and stereo 8-bit and 16-bit  stereo  (Falcon).
  ULTIMATE  TRACKER  v2.52 by Equinox & the Black Cats -  Plays  Soundtracker,
  Noisetracker and Protracker 1.2 MODs on STE, TT and Falcon. Runs as a PRG or
  ACC and is MultiTos compatible.  It offers four frequencies from 6.25 kHz to
  50 kHz depending on your machine.

  MUS.4246C  MAKIN'  SWEET MUSIC Vol 3 from MUG UK - Over 60  pieces  of  chip
  music for use with Megatizer on MUS.3256.  Also supplied are player routines
  for Devpac,  STOS Basic and GFA Basic v3 (or later) so that you can use  the
  music in your own programs.

  MUS.4375C   NATION-X  CHIP MUSIC DISK 1 - A collection of around  150  tunes
  from  ST  games and demos.  Also on disk is RAZREZ - aka Whee  the  Fibble's
  Music  Player v 3.1.  This player supports 13 different types of chip  music
  file eg; Big Alec, Count Zero, Mad Max, Trimod and many more.

  MUS.4376  FANTASY MUSIC PLAYER from Morgan Roussel - Multi music file player
  which is similar to RAZREZ (on MUS.4375) but less stable.  GBELL - Loads and
  plays  a sample when a system call (eg; open window,  drag etc) is  executed.
  Runs on the STE,  TT or Falcon only.  THE MIX MACHINE by Dynamite Software -
  AMOD  player  with  the facility to accept input direct from  a  sampler  at
  various  rates  up  to  CD quality.  MIDI  support  via  on-screen  5-octave
  keyboard.   Looks like a powerful program which would be even better had the
  author thought to include a DOC file!  WAVEPLAYER by B Grier - Allows you to
  play  WAV  files from the PC on an STE,  TT or Falcon.  Includes  C  source.
  MODEST V1.1 by Great Dane Software - This program is intended to be used  as
  a  database  for  keeping track(?) of all those MOD files.  It  reads  in  a
  directory  of  MODs  and creates a listing of  their  filenames,  the  songs
  contained  within each MOD,  the composer's name and the file  size.  If  it
  stopped there it would be little more than a database come disk  cataloguing
  program.  Where  Modest  really scores is that it can analyse all  new  MODs
  against  the  details already on file and help  eliminate  duplicates  which
  would otherwise be missed because the filenames have been changed.  You  can
  analyse and store data on all the common MOD variations.  Several MOD  types
  can  also be played by Modest in the full version.  This Shareware  demo  is
  fully functional except that it does not play MODs, nor does it allow you to
  output your data to disk or printer. Register for the full version.

  MUS.4382  THE BACKGROUND MUSIC UTILITY by Richard Karsmakers - An  accessory
  which plays music while you work,  regardless of whatever else you're  doing
  on the computer. It has 58 tunes built in. These range from classical to The
  Muppets with The Beatles thrown in too!  CHORD - A demo version of the Chord
  Dictionary by John Woods.   The demo is restricted to major,  minor and  7th
  chords in 12 keys.   The full version has 1200 chords,  which are listed  in
  the demo but not selectable. OCTALYSER V0.96 by New Trend - An eight channel
  soundtracker program. The sampler/sample editor, MIDI options and ability to
  load  sound samples and a few other bits and pieces will be included in  the
  registered version.  Octalyser supports Noisetracker 15 sample and 30 sample
  formats  using  4 channels,  an expanded Noisetracker format  which  uses  8
  channels,  Startrekker  Amiga  31  sample  formats with  4  or  8  channels,
  Octalyser Amiga 31 sample 4,  6 or 8 channel formats as well as its own!  It
  also  allows  the use of UMP modules which,  when applied  to  standard  MOD
  files,  allows you to hear them at 50khz in 16-bit stereo.  This is the only
  tracker  program  which allows you to replay sounds which  were  sampled  at
  50khz  (the others are limited to about 30khz).  Octalyser has an  extensive
  manual on disk as well as on-line help from within the program. As Octalyser
  is  no  longer being developed,  the authors are  allowing  this  registered
  version to be freely distributed. STE ONLY.

  MUS.4531   FINAL  SCORE from Mainstream Music - A fully  functioning  score-
  writing  program.  Printout  is graphic  based,  giving  excellent  results.
  Unfortunately  only Epson 9-pin printers are supported.  Draws lines, slurs,
  hairpins,  beams,  boxes  and has the full complement of notes and  symbols,
  including guitar chords.  Add text using one of 4 fonts supplied.  Note this
  is a DTP-type program for outputting music scores to printer, not MIDI. Mono
  Only.  REAL  SOUND  - A MOD file player which runs as an ACC and  plays  the
  music in the background if running as an ACC or under Multi-TOS.  STE  ONLY.
  GUZ'S  AMAZING SOUNDTRACKER TUTORIAL - A tutorial file on  how  Soundtracker
  programs work.  It has a number of example MOD files included to  illustrate
  the  points  it covers.  Obviously you will need a Soundtracker  program  in
  order to make use of the tutorial. We recommend Protracker v2.1 on MUS.3732.

  MUS.4693  QPLAY v3 by Dyad Software - A Quartet song player with output  via
  monitor  or  an ST Replay cartridge.  Maximum output frequency  is  22  kHz.
  Undocumented  feature:  pressing "1" on the numeric key pad followed by  the
  Space bar gives very colourful animated display! Note this is a demo program
  and  not  all  features are implemented.  There are also one  or  two  bugs,
  especially in the file selector.  Does NOT work if you have a Midi  keyboard
  attached.  MADMAX  - A sound chip music player for playing tunes in Mad  Max
  format. It also includes over 90 pieces of music for you to listen to.

  MUS.4931C  MUSIC OF THE SHAPE SHIFTERS VOL 1 - Twenty superb tunes working
  under interrupt,  many with full source code and note data.  Also included
  are  several  QUARTET tunes (these require the Quartet program)  and  four
  music demos. This disk was previously part of the BUDGIE UK range.

  MUS.4933C   MUSIC  OF THE SHAPESHIFTERS VOL 2 - More original  tunes  from
  Goth.   Sixteen  interrupt driven tunes callable from Basic or  Assembler.
  More source code files to examine and assemble (Devpac2 needed).  Finally,
  two new demos,  Gooddemo and Goth-2,  with another 14 tunes. This disk was
  previously part of the BUDGIE UK range.

  MUS.4937C  MUSIC OF THE SHAPESHIFTERS VOL 3 - More than 60 tunes available
  from  the click of the mouse.  A superb collection from the most  original
  music coders on the ST. Many tunes are repeated in PRG format, ready to go
  into your games. Others have full assembler source code. Great value. This
  disk was previously part of the BUDGIE UK range.

  MUS.4942C   MUZEXX  MAKER by Malcolm Sparks - Allows music to  be  generated
  easily  from  the  ST's  soundchip.  The music  generated  is  played  under
  interrupt.  Examples and a sample source code listing are provided on  disk.
  The resulting data can be played using the program provided or used in  your
  own  programs.  MUSIC  CASSETTE  PRINTER by Paul Dowers -  Create  your  own
  personalised  labels  for your music cassettes.  As well  as  designing  the
  layout,  you  can import graphics in PI2 format.  Also on disk is  an  image
  grabber program which allows you to grab a section of a Degas screen for use
  in  the program.  For Epson and compatible printers.  Three sets of  clipart
  type graphics and fonts are provided on disk.  These programs were  formerly
  part of the BUDGIE UK range.

  MUS.5256   OPTRONIX  MUSAK PLAYER v2 - Chip music,  Quartet &  Tracker  file
  player  from  Optronix.  Allows  chip music (searches  for  several  formats
  including  Mad Max,  Count Zero,  Trimod & others) to be ripped  from  other
  programs. Quartet files may be output via monitor, DMA, or Replay & Playback
  cartridges.  Disk  also includes a folder with two self-extracting  archives
  (copy them to a blank disk before extracting) containing 100's of chip music
  files for use with Musak Player.

  MUS.5257  SONGZ V1.89 by Antoine Martin - A multi-media database program. It
  is  essentially  a database designed to help you keep track of  your  tapes,
  records and CDs. Album name, song titles, artist's name, music type, year of
  release etc are all stored and are quickly and easily searched  through.  In
  addition,  music  and graphics can be linked to individual  entries,  making
  this a truly multi-media experience.  The only thing is,  you'll need a hard
  drive  if  you  want  to do that!  Supported  graphic  formats  include  Art
  Director,  Degas,  IMG,  NEO, Doodle, Prism Paint, TIFF and STAD. Music file
  support includes MID,  MOD and AVR. Songz is very neatly laid out in a slick
  modern GEM interface and it takes no time at all to get the hang of  things.
  Menus  can be configured for English,  French or German.  This  unregistered
  version  includes  several example databases but limits the  number  of  new
  sheets  to  40 (1600 in the full version) and picture viewing  is  disabled.
  Registration removes these restrictions.

  MUS.5304  FIVE TO FIVE v2.13 - Analyses and converts various sample  formats
  (AIFF,  AIFF-CUBASE,  AVR,  DVSM,  FORTUNE,  HSN,  SND,  WAVE,  RAW) between
  different computer systems (ST,  Falcon,  Sun,  NeXT,  Mac, PC). Runs on any
  Atari.  AUDIODEV by Eric Smith - A device driver for MiNT to drive the STE's
  DMA;  plays at 12.5 khz only.  Source code included. SOUND PLAYER by Richard
  Kurz  -  An easy to use sample player which handles 8 and 16  bit  mono  and
  stereo  via  monitor  or DMA hardware.  Just load and  play!  SWAV  V0.2  by
  Christophe Bartholme - Plays 8-bit or 16-bit WAV samples up to to 50khz  via
  the  DMA.  It  can be installed as an application so that WAV files  can  be
  double-clicked,  or you can run it as a TTP or from a CLI giving it  various
  parameters.  Probably even more useful is its ability to be executed from an
  Auto  folder  as it can randomly select a WAV file which will be  played  at
  bootup.  ANOTHER  CD-PLAYER (ACDP) V1.01 by Christian Mittendorf - Audio  CD
  driver for use with MetaDOS. It has been designed for use on the Falcon with
  FALCON.BOS  but  should also run on the ST.  ACDP has many  functions  which
  include  playing the audio tracks,  reading the actual table of contents  of
  the CD, stopping the song, changing to the next song and more. Runs as a PRG
  or ACC.  THE GUITAR REFERENCE by Alan Richardson - Displays a user-definable
  guitar  fretboard  on screen to which different scales and  tunings  can  be
  displayed.  Includes a tuner which plays over MIDI or sound chip.  THE MUSIC
  PLAYER  V1.0  by Christian Dahl - Yet another MOD file player but  this  one
  actually  has some extras to offer.  As well as the usual 4 track  MODs  TMP
  also  handles 6 track and 8 track variations.  It plays the MODs at 50  Khz,
  supports the VA-START protocol and can be run from a CLI.  Up to 20 MODs can
  be loaded at once and TMP is fully multi-tasking friendly.  Runs as a PRG or
  ACC.  From the author of Octalyser. MUSEX1 by Seymour Shlien - A program for
  practising  and learning musical notation by selecting the correct  note  on
  the  on-screen  keyboard  in response to a note appearing  randomly  on  the
  stave.  Offers Test,  Lesson and Unstructured modes. Response times given at
  the end of the lesson.  Colour ONLY. MUSEX2 by Seymour Shlien - Ear training
  excercises  -  no,  not wiggling them in time to music  but  developing  the
  ability to identify musical intervals!  Several levels of difficulty. Simple
  point and click interface. PLAY_AVR by Timothy Raine - A sample player which
  automatically  converts 16 bit to 8 bit samples (why you should want  to  do
  this  I don't know),  resamples to nearest internal playback  frequency  and
  signs  an  unsigned sample.  SP_COPY - A copy utility specifically  for  the
  Peavey  SP sample player.  It lets you copy selected SP-banks or the  entire
  medium  (hard drive,  CD-ROM etc).  We don't have one of these  machines  so
  you're on your own here!  TIME IS MONEY by Jerome Cabanis - Performs all the
  necessary conversion calculations between tempo and note values expressed in
  terms  of  hours,  minutes,  seconds and  milliseconds.  Everything  can  be
  converted and expressed in terms of any other supported unit of measurement.
  A handy ACC to have loaded when composing.

  MUS.5643 AUDIOCREATE V3.01 by Simon Dehaese - Good sampling software for STE
  (8 bit),  TT and Falcon (16 bit) with direct-to disk recording and  playback
  capabilities. Plenty of facilities for manipulating samples. Output via MIDI
  (preferable) or monitor.  Falcon owners can record via the microphone  input
  or sampling hardware (eg Clarity) whilst ST'ers will need Replay or similar.
  CD-RECORDER  by Dirk Haun - Reads audio CD data and saves samples in AVR  or
  WAV format at up to 44.1 kHz.  Requires MetaDos and an audio CD driver (such
  as  FALCON.BOS - even on an ST!).  GUITAR SCALES by Stefan Bock - Two  GIFs,
  representing guitar scales (displays full screen, scrollable major and minor
  scales in all keys as a guitar fretboard) along with the necessary  software
  to allow you to view them from within your sequencer.  Designed for use with
  C-LAB's  Creator but would work equally well within  ANY  sequencer.  JINGLE
  PLAYER  by  A  Binner  and H Schönfield - A sample  player  for  DVR  format
  samples.  Converts  AVR to this format.  Includes a drag-and-drop  playlist.
  ROLAND  MC202  SAMPLER PACK from Sorceror Sound Productions  -  Four  16-bit
  stereo  samples  in AVR format.  Issued as an 'advert' for  SSD's  range  of
  professional sound samples.  OSZI - Displays samples graphically in the form
  of an oscilloscope. Can be run from the desktop or as a desk accessory.

  MUS.5692C  STOS FRIEND CHIP MUSIC DISK by Take-5-Team - A player program  by
  German STOS enthusiasts which plays Mad Max tunes and displays a red,  white
  and blue pulsating flag as the music plays. Full STOS source on disk as well
  as  99  Mad  Max  tunes  to listen  to.  Did  he  really  write  that  many?
  Probably the most comprehensive compilation of the maestro's work.

  MUS.5875  CPU_MOD  by Patrick Ruiz-  A MOD Player for the  STE  and  Falcon.
  Playback frequency up to 50 KHz,  mono/stereo, tape deck controls, different
  routines  for assembler,  C,  Omnikron Basic and STOS.  Includes a cut  down
  version  for  the  520 STE.  PLAYSID030 V2.00 by Abyss & Tao of  Cream  -  A
  Commodore C64 SID chip emulator for playing chip music from those 8-bit days
  when Rob Hubbard,  David Whittaker et al ruled the music scene.  Includes 43
  music files including the likes of Dragon's Lair II and  Commando.  DIGIEDIT
  by  Edmund  E  Aycock - A sample file  player/editor  and  converter.  Loads
  DigiSound (SND) or Raw data files and converts between them.  SOUNDINIT v1.0
  by  Richard  Kurz  - Initialises the sound system of the  STE/TT  &  Falcon.
  Program can be renamed according to the volume required and whether to  turn
  the loudspeaker on or off, and installed in the Auto folder.

  MUS.5971  NAUDIO  - A demo of the Naudio  sample  replay  library.  Includes
  NATRACK,  a MOD Tracker which runs on all Ataris,  and NQuiz, a quiz game in
  which  you  listen to a sample (mostly Heavy Metal extracts)  and  answer  a
  question.  Facility to make your own quiz from your own samples. STEqualiser
  by  Thomas Sahlin - An ACC for the STE to allow adjustment of  bass,  treble
  and volume output levels.

  MUS.5988 & MUS.5989  SYSTEM AUDIO MANAGER (SAM)  V1.3 -  Originally  bundled
  free with the  Falcon, JTS  Atari  have now given  permission  for SAM to be
  distributed freely. Despite its Falcon roots, SAM runs on any Atari computer
  with DMA sound (STE/TT/Falcon).  SAM allows you to attach sampled sounds  to
  system events eg; an explosion to bombs, Big Ben chiming for the system bell
  sound and so on.  Alerts,  file selectors,  closing windows,  indeed any GEM
  event  can  have  a sample assigned to  it.  In  addition,  you  can  assign
  different  samples  to  the keys on the keyboard.  Press Help  and  it  says
  'Help',  press Undo and it says 'Undo' etc. Adding samples to every key goes
  a bit over the top and can be off-putting,  especially if you're typing! SAM
  accepts sound samples in AVR or WAV formats,  so you can use any the  masses
  of  PD  samples available.  Create your sounds using any  of  the  available
  sampling cartridges for the ST.  If they do not save in AVR format, use Five
  To Five on MUS.5304 to convert them.  SAM's built-in sample editor is simple
  to use and more than adequate for tidying up your samples.  SAM was designed
  in  such a way that programmers could make their programs  SAM  aware.  When
  running  such programs you can assign samples to various events  handled  by
  that application.  To be honest the possibilities were endless,  the problem
  was that nobody ever supported SAM in their programs.  The reason appears to
  be  due  to a bug in SAM which meant that the configuration files  were  not
  read correctly. This version has been patched by Kosmic Phish Productions to
  fix the bug (the last official version was 1.2). SAM is very well documented
  (on disk) and includes a full tutorial.  SAMPLES - A collection of 40  sound
  samples  to get you started with SAM.  KP SACK V1.0 - An easy to use  editor
  for creating SAA files. These are configuration files created by programmers
  of SAM aware application. They are read by SAM to determine which samples to
  assign to which events.  KP SACK allows you to create SAA files  easily.  It
  also extends the Applications Global function in SAM. This function lets you
  set  up  common  events for all SAM aware applications rather  than  (or  in
  addition to) program specific ones.  The original set of Applications Global
  functions  have  been  further extended by Kosmic Phish to  include  16  new
  Application  Globals which include support for some of the more  modern  GEM
  features  such  as  iconification and tile/stack  windows.  KP  SACK  is  an
  excellent tool for programmers. Needs 1 Mb. STE ONLY.

  MUS.6125 NEWTRACK by Simon Volant - A MOD player which includes an Amiga MOD
  converter. Plays back at 5khz to 50 khz. Can be installed as an application,
  so  you just need to double-click MODs to play  them.  Well  documented...in
  French!  NED  PLAYER v3.1 - Simple sample player  for  STE/TT/Falcon.  Plays
  unpacked and 8-bit mono files only,  from 6 to 25khz. Handles SAM, DVSM, AU,
  SND  & WAV formats.  When used with CAB and BACKPLAY,  NED Player  lets  you
  listen  to  all those sound samples embedded in Web  pages.  MOD  REPAIR  by
  Daniel  Fischer - Tests the structure of a MOD and then attempts to  correct
  any errors.  MR can also play corrected modules.  SIRIUS PLAYER v1.4 - A MOD
  player which displays wave forms graphically (as you listen to them) in  the
  form of an oscilloscope. It handles 4 or 8 channel MODs, playing at 25Mhz on
  an  STE or 50 Mhz on a Falcon.  Octalyser compatible with lots of  features.
  Can  be  run  from  the Desktop or as an ACC.  SOUND  CHIP  SYNTH  v1.01  by
  Electronic  Cow  -  Another classy offering,  this  one  controls  the  ST's
  internal   sound  chip.   Full  control  over  envelope   generators,   wave
  shape/period  and all the other parameters that make up the Yamaha  YM-2419.
  Create and save patches for later use. Some limited MIDI control.

  MUS.6307C SIDSOUND DESIGNER V3.5 by Animal Mine - Create your own music with
  this  Soundtracker type program.  It lets you import samples in SPL  or  AVR
  format  and create your songs in a similar manner to Soundtracker  programs.
  In fact there's even a conversion program to convert MOD files into SIDSOUND
  format. The resultant music is chip rather than sample based. It's difficult
  to  tell if it lets you compose SID chip music as on the Commodore 64 or  if
  the  name is purely coincidental.  There are docs but they say very  little,
  though the program will be easy to use if you have previously composed music
  using  Soundtracker programs.  Lots of sound samples and example  songs  are
  included on disk.
