Alex is also a very nice guy and will help you with issues and loves to hear feedback. It's somewhere between a typical daw with a song arranger, a tracker and a modular synth. It has some very neat 'changes' to tracker paradigm including visual effects editing and using pictures to name patterns. It's a clone of a tracker that came out at that time and was very popular and stopped being usable as windows progressed in versions. ![]() MilkyTracker - get this if you want to feel like it's 1994 and you're running DOS. In terms of what trackers I find good, here's a little bit on each one: Tracker's don't bother drawing notes in this way, therefore there's technically no need to have a note end. ![]() Note-offs are not required in trackers but are naturally required by piano rolls since there MUST be an end to a note in that methodology. It also has an advantage in that notes can be held forever. Basically the graphical things you see on a piano roll that take up a whole screen can be condensed into a single line of about 10 letters and once you can just glance at it, it's much easier to get an overall sense of a composition than a screen filling (but pretty) piano roll with color rectangles on it. ![]() The thing I find I like most about trackers is that track information is extremely condensed and I can see rhythmic interplay at a glance just by looking where a row is filled with notes. Others have built in synth archecture and modular connectivity between components (like SunVox and Buzz). Some even have built in sample editors (like ReNoise, which is my favorite). The PC keyboard in every single one of them becomes a musical keyboard. Trackers were designed from the ground up as a self-contained solution to people with computers and no musical hardware.
