Great, another readme file! Well, not really...
I am writing this file to tell you, the user, how I am dissappointed with
my time constraints. I wanted to bring you so much more. Here's a list of
things that will be added over time, as time becomes available. I have full
intentions of complying with this list as time permits in future versions.
Most of these things are either planned out, or have been begun but not
finished yet. These are features I had meant to build into FAR 1.00 before it
was released to the public, but I decided it was in the best interest of
everyone to provide a WORKABLE version NOW rather an a blow-away version
2-3 months later.
* A full graphical sample editor for both 8/16 bit
* A sampling option for GUS 8-bit (no GUSMAX or GUSDB info yet, sorry)
* Reading sample data straight off of CD (still need a little more info)
* A full custom wave instrument designer. This will be usable to design both
chip instruments, and full string pads, depending on the complexity of the
waves created.
* A full FM instrument generator. This can be used to generate AdLib style
instruments.
* A new, improved, F3R format. This format will support many things, including
saving instruments as their components from the WaveDesign and FMDesign
mentioned above. This will allow making incredible chip and string songs
SMALL. A draft proposal for this format has been included.
* Better support for MIDI (more usable, MPU-401, etc)
* Mixer controls
* Ability to assign notes to samples, for a drum pad effect (useful on midi)
* A version ported to Linux (!!)
and last but defintely not least..
* Modular support for other soundcards like SB, SBPro, etc.
I truely hope, as a programmer, and as a part time musician that i can find
the time to finish these projects. I hope that you will find it worth your
time to stay with me while we attempt to create the most awesome tracker
ever.
