Here's a module I ripped out of a CryptoBurners demo.
It's some of the best *tracker music I've heard, IMHO. Unfortunately, the
demo itself didn't run too well on my ECS equipped A500, no matter what
settings I used. Too bad, it looked good. Nevertheless, I was impressed
enough with the music to rip it out of the demo.
For those interested, I used Mon 1.24 by Timo Rossi to do the ripping,since
none of the rippers I have worked on it. CRB had the samples spread all
over chip RAM. So I used breakpoints and memory hunting and copying and so
forth to put everything into place and save it.
Note: This song won't sound right when played with Med or Medplayer
up to V 2.13 (the latest I currently have). There is a bug in the
play routine's Portamento command ($03). According to the docs for
NoiseTracker and Med, when a portamento (tone slide) command with a data
byte (portamento speed) of $00 is encountered, the player is supposed to
use the previousely set portamento speed. Instead, Med overwrites the
previous portamento speed with $00. :-) So, if you want to hear it as it
should sound, use NoiseTracker, Compositive, or Intuitracker (crash!), or
my CLI based *Tracker player when I finish it :-).
C'ya,
Jim
