Digitracker was the first music program for the Amstrad CPC, which was based on digital instruments (samples) instead of PSG (chip) sound. Out of wave tables it mixed three 7 bit channels into one 4 or 8 bit channel, which has been output via the CPCs' internal PSG or the Digiblaster (printer port) DAC-extension.
Technical facts
- 64512 bytes free for samples
- 34 pattern (when pattern-lenght is set to 64)
- 16667 herz 8 bit sampleoutput (Digiblaster)
- 14493 herz 4 bit sampleoutput (Soundchip)
- 96 Songpositions
- 8 Bit-Digiblaster support for high-quality sound
- mostly Amiga-Protracker-effekt compatible, 17 effects (slides, vibratos, arpeggios, position-loops, sample-offset)
- sample-editor (echo, mix, smooth...)
- powerfull playerroutine, any startposition, interrupts possible (demos are possible, too), colorequalizer, equalizing rasterbar and more
- comfortable uniformity standard-user-desktop
Program modules
- main-module, Digitracker itself. In here you can edit or create new MDLs (modules).
- MOD-Converter, which converts Amiga-Protracker-MODs to Digitracker-format, sample (Amiga, PC...) and CPC-MOD transfer is possible, too
- The Playercode-Generator, which creates an external player-routine for Digitracker-modules
