Pro Tracker v3.63
(C) Alone Coder
Remember, I sent out to participants The Compo
for completing the questionnaire Pro Tracker v3.60A? C
hint that the rest of his long time before they see?
Deciding on justice, I started a new
version, so they just lost their chance
see that:)
Changes, though not as much as we would like, a lot had to
be left for later. But thanks to good work betatesterov
has removed some nasty neozhadannostey:)
Special thanks to:

Macros have preferred to keep quiet. We'll wait:)
What are the features of the program should be
have in mind to use the program
without risk to themselves?
1. Imports from the Sound Tracker creates a rather curious
picture of sluchayyh music in the unused patterns. A good way
to find a theme for alternative music;)
2. In the ST / STP no tables volume, so the precise
conversion can not be.
3. For the conversion of ASM use converter by HIMIK.
4. For decompilation of compiled modules PTv2.4 use by
decompiler Accept Corp. Conventional modules are loaded.
5. For decompilation of compiled modules ST and STP use the
appropriate version of the editor. In ST2.1 (STD) such option
is available on the D key to disk menu.
6. Due to the expansion of the field being edited
Turbo mode is strongly recommended or
at least the Pentagon-compatible computer. Otherwise have to
turn off the analyzer.
7. Displacement of the envelope in the samples collected only
in bytes.
8. If you intend to play one player a few modules, then the
first line of each module, initialize the note pattern and
sample.
9. Check the sound module after
kompilyatsii.Pri discrepancies please contact me.
10. To reduce the size of a compiled module to observe TB
reduction modules (see below), and use the players from the
family MIC.Pleyer quite flexible and easily allows for the
exclusion of unused pieces of their code. Nevertheless, even in
the base case (with one plate) it is smaller player from PT2.K
Unfortunately, about the module in most cases, this One can not
say: (
11. If you suspect that your svezhenapisanny, but not yet
saved a masterpiece risks to break all records on the length,
in bytes, check before you save this length menu Compile! More
# 3700 (without player) We can not save!
TB reduction modules
That can be eliminated in the player, if
limit the composer:
- Teams 3xxx, 6.xx (a very nice win).
- Table volume (too bad:).
- Sample offset 'ornament offset (gain
slightly).
- Accumulation of bias in the samples, control
envelope in the sample.
- Shift the noise in the text.
When you change the format:
- Regulation of the frequency of white noise (it's bad, but I
used 00 almost always). - High byte of the envelope (although I
recently while it is often used).
- Ornaments (already have some experience writing Mouzon
without :))). - Volume (also have some experience:)
only it's harder!).
- Remove the parameter "delay glissade" and "speed glissade"
store a single byte. - Similar to remove the slide envelope.Ili
this command.
- To keep the team tempo in conjunction with the one byte
(instead of two as now) - Reduce the number of octaves / number
samples (this is an extreme case, the adjustment
for a particular module). If you are using
only 4.7 octaves, the frequency table
will be on a byte to the note, which bytes to
use have to be doubled.
- Remove all commands (gliss and tempo, the rest removed
above:)). Gliss samples can be drawn, but the tempo is
impossible.
Ill-effect (a completely different sound,
but shorter than the player): initialize the envelope on each
frame (by the way, sorry features on / off this mode does not
exist in one tracker)
Due to which the composer can reduce
Module:
+ Flexing teams tempo
+ Cutting patterns to highlight identical pieces
+ Does not initialize several times and one
the same envelope (this is sometimes difficult, but
usually solved by masking the envelope in
samples)
+ Does not always put a note on the envelope,
if it is, the envelope does not change
+ Write melodies or fragments of parties
shock in samples
+ Fit loudness of samples so that
rarely had to change the volume.
(It actually write a very long
Mouzon just 1k.)
(It actually scored all 46 patterns and
have modulus less than 8k.)
(For a fairly long song module PT3
shorter nekompilirovannogo module STP.)
Of course, it is necessary to provide the tracker
the ability to edit and what not He plays a short player can
check whether each of the above items, and more if than once or
twice:)
Format PT3 described in AlCoNews # 12.
Good format song can be done only by other principles storage
tracks: ( (Ie, not consistent "team", looped, and the format in
which to first byte of the notes clear about what options to
follow)
