BY STGHOST/SECTOR ONE (C)1995
This is the first DEMO-VERSION of the DBE TRACKER, a new soundtracker for
ST and PC. It runs on all ATARI machines with a DMA soundchip. This is a 32
voices soundtracker even a single STE (but it is a bit more shitty than on
a more powerful machine). Speed cards are not recognized but can be used
(not in the demo version).
In this version, you can load soundtracks, load samples and save samples.
You can edit the patterns. Many options and functions are still not imple-
mented like transpositions, midi input/output gestion, sample edition...
The tracker is not finished but you can register now. You'll receive all
new versions that will be released.
File formats of this version:
*Load and decrunch (Atomik 3.5, Ice 2.4, Speed Packer 3) the following file
formats: MOD, S3M, 669, MTM, MGM and my own format: DBT
*Load samples: SPL, AVR
*Save samples: SPL, AVR, WAV
File formats in the final version:
*Load WAV samples
*Load/Save songs: SNG and DBS(my own format)
*Save all soundtrack formats of this version
*Load DTM and GTK soundtracks (Digital Tracker and Graoumf Tracker)
Some remarks:
-the quality depends on the processor speed and the number of voices. The
DSP is not used in this version on Falcon030. Maybe there will be a spe-
cific release for this machine.
-the fileselector in this demo version is not finished. Only LOAD FILE
and SAVE FILE can be used.
-it is possible to load a file contained in a LZH (or ARJ) archive
-there will be a midi-input and a MIDI-OUTPUT
-there will be a sampler/sample-editor
If you are interested in this soundtracker, contact me at the following
address:
HUGUET Denis
104bis Avenue du General de Gaulle
18500 Mehun sur Yevre
FRANCE
The registration fee is : 50FF / 6.35£ / 10.20$ / 14.20DM
Please send a disk with you address and the fee (no cash !!!) if you
want to be registered.
More about the DBE TRACKER
--------------------------
It is a 32 voices soundtracker. You can use 255 8-bits samples (and 16
bits on Falcon in the final version). You can have up to 256 patterns.
Of course, such possibilities would require lots of memory, so the way
to increase the patterns number is a bit shitty: you have to enter the
number of the new pattern on the line called PATTERN by clicking on the
number and entering a new value or by using +/- buttons. If you want to
type it, please notice you can add patterns one by one. It is a bit more
easy with samples: there is always a free slot for a new sample (if you
have a 31-samples module, you can access sample number 32), select it
and load the new sample (a new slot will be added).
The selection of a sample is made with the numeric pad: 0 to sub 16, .
to add 16 and all other keys to set the hexadecimal unit (Enter=0).
Pattern entries are like this: NNN VV IIEEPP
NNN is the note from C_0 to B_5 (Do_0 to Si_5) (--- if no note)
VV is the volume: 00 to $40 set a new value
$41 to $7f reserved
$80 to $ff no change (-- on the screen)
II is the sample number (0 means no change)
EE is the effect
PP is the parameter of this effect
Only Protracker effects are included at the moment but I am going to
add some ones. Please note that extended effects 0Exy are now 1x0y.
Look at the file called DBT1_KBD.TXT for the keyboard functions.
I hope you'll like this soundtracker. Please write me for ideas, re-
gistration, module exchange or if you want the Sector One Music Disk 8
or the last DSMP (v2.02b).
Warning: some options will not react in the demo-version because they
are made/finished, so don't worry about bugs...
Last minute:
In the fileselector, the SAVE NEW button doesn't work because it is
now possible to clic on the FILENAME field and enter the filename,
then just clic SAVE FILE.
Some thanks goes to:
- Hello/Sector One for testing
- Simplet/Fatal Design for documentation about file formats
- TOS Crew for ARJ decrunch code
Some greetings goes to:
- Hello/Sector One
-Zoby One/ACCS
-The Beast/Typhoon
Bye.
