Sets from recent shows that included mostly #impulsetracker tracks from the early aughts, that I had split up into stems for live mangling, have received two surprising compliments and comparisons to both Stockhausen and Atom™.
The only musical effect available in that tracker is a low pass resonant filter (with some hacks for high pass), which allows samples and looping instruments to sound a bit like a subtractive synth, also with rudimentary drawable envelopes. -
@PypeBros Yup, thats me. I made it with #impulsetracker in 1998. And now im scripting features from Impulse Tracker to #renoise and so on :)

@mathr Hi! glad to find someone who spent time tweaking #octamed :) i have been collecting and studying #AREXX scripts to find new ideas - am converting them to #LUA for #renoise and your idea sounds interesting, do you have a direct aminet link or sourcecode i could take a look at? I have added dozens of features from #PlayerPro #octamed #protracker #impulsetracker #pollytracker #modplugtracker #openmpt #madtracker etc into my add-on for Renoise, #paketti. Always looking 4 more.

I learned how to write music on a ‘Polyend Tracker Mini’, which is a portable battery powered tracker that you can take with you and has everything to write music on the go. I’ve played with #ImpulseTracker some back in the DOS days so while learning the interface took an evening, I got most of a song written in about two days.
Very fun inspiration for experimentation! So here’s a quirky song inspired by #StarControl and the kind of theme songs they wrote for all the different races you can meet and really neatly communicated the feels of the kind of a society you were in contact with.
A chance to imagine a whole new first contact! https://aviancer.bandcamp.com/track/hailing-frequencies
I also swapped over to Bandcamp from SoundCloud after they opted everyone in on the whole AIGen training train, so I guess this is the launch of that also! All the #creativity! ❤️

Celebrating turning 45 today by going over #ImpulseTracker #modules that I made back around the turn of the century.
There sure are some #bangers there, but also tons of crap!
-
back when it lazily took four channels of the same kick drum in #impulsetracker rather than simply lowering the volume of all the other tracks 🙃

In the 90's, a friend got a bunch of IBM model-M keyboards from my jr college that were being disposed of, & everyone in our #quake clan got one. then everyone in my band got one for #impulsetracker. later in life, I became a fan of Unicomp's remakes, but now that i'm equally concerned about coding, writing & typing extremely fast without errors and hanging out in the home-row rather than the odd tracker-hover, i'm going to try out a low-profile mechanical keychron (full w/ numpad, of course)

I briefly played around with #ImpulseTracker in the 1990s and I know songs by #AphexTwin. But I have no idea how electronic music was or is actually made. Yet this video here was very intriguing. I wasn't aware that there is or was this collection of weird audio programs with Windows 95 GUIs. It's like finding out that painters of yore were mixing their own pigments using bodily fluids. Ok, well... maybe not... let's get off that train of thought 🤪

lol if I put the word "mod" in quotes in a #Drupal node title on Dreamhost. It's a blog story about #impulsetracker:
🙃 ModSecurity: Access denied with code 418 (phase 2). Operator GE matched 7 at TX:anomaly_score. [file "mod_sec3_CRS/REQUEST-949-BLOCKING-EVALUATION.conf"] [line "93"] [id "949110"] [msg "Inbound Anomaly Score Exceeded (Total Score: 10)"] [severity "CRITICAL"] [ver "OWASP_CRS/3.3.2"] [tag "application-multi"] [tag "language-multi"] [tag "platform-multi"] [tag "attack-generic"] -
🐸🐢 felt compelled to dig up this 1998 #impulsetracker song for a set last night. it was named wrong, so it took me hours to find with voidtools Everything :P it samples a #yamaha an1x, an ocarina (maybe a frog shaped one), some kids' educational records, and the reason i dug it up was for the kick drum jam sequence 😬
-
i see a lot of #chiptune using multiple #korg kaoss pads, presumably splitting the music output to L/R split-mono and then kaossing from there. I was thinking if i ever got into modular synthesis, i'd probably build a sort of fx mixer for L/R or multichannel split with tracker, rather than a synth. This mockup photo is what I had going on with #impulsetracker and its #midi out some years ago. it was not a retro thing at the time :P It's an effectrix filterfactory, mofx, and a3000 sampler
-
@jarkko two pattern effects I enjoyed most in #impulsetracker are retrig that allows for tick values that span multiple rows and the same for tremor. I even made a custom DSP for #renoise they emulates IT's Ixy tremolo
-
it's in my todo to remap #furnacetracker keybindings to my preferred #renoise keybindings, but now i remember my preferred renoise keybindings are actually copied from #impulsetracker 😬 also needs a color scheme theme
-
this is one of those tracks where i must have made it on a temporary system and the original #impulsetracker and .wav files are gone! forever! oops! and i spent way too much time digging through backups, but a 256kbps mp3 is ok of posterity i guess

🖤 #peewee samples in an #impulsetracker track from the 90s. Oddly inspired by skinny puppy's side project, Plateau. takes about 2min to get there -
here's an older #impulsetracker track and a newer #renoise track that demo heavier use of Tremor and its renoise emulation of it

🖤 i started packaging little free #renoise tools and hacks on gumroad since it makes things like this much easier and less opaque to distribute than github. this Tremor doofer emulates #impulsetracker tick-synced Tremor (IXY) gating effect :] -
https://protman.gumroad.com/l/RenoisePatternFontPackV1
it's a tracker pattern font pack for #renoise that includes instructions on how to install/swap them. One set of fonts I made myself from scratch that match the original #impulsetracker font. They perform like pixel-perfect bitmap fonts even though they are TrueType (TTF). The purpose was to replace the blurry, dull, anti-aliased DejaVuMono font that arrived with the "retina" updates 🤮 -
here's a recording of last night's set. it's some new-ish tracks and oldies from #renoise, #impulsetracker, #schismtracker, #ironchefofmusic, #weeklybeats and general noodling 🍜 https://www.mixcloud.com/protman/protman_oscura_20230428/
