ModPlug Tracker, says the guy.

The tracker UI is still the best one for arranging a bunch of samples in a timeline, and for many of the effects done in this where it doesn't necessarily make a lot of sense to set up a more traditional sampler. There's tracker-style VST instruments to make it easier to integrate a tracker into a more modern workflow.

Sorry, I'm just amazed. I made some IT mods back when alt.binaries.sounds.mods was the only way to distribute them, and I played with Cakewalk a little when it came out and messed around with eJay a bit. To my eyes the interface used here looks like a step backwards.

The thing I miss most about making music with Impulse Tracker was the ability to load up any arbitrary file and mess around with loop points without a lot of work. I was able to discover all sorts of cool sounds that way. One of my most popular songs from that era is "Return of the Files" where I used a bunch of non-sound files to make the entire song (MS-DOS 6.22's command.com made an excellent drum loop, incidentally).

Fluffy, I'd like to hear that.


tons of people still use trackers. Hell, I'm pretty sure eck and quite few well klnown producers use Littlesound DJ for some stuff.

Decent but not spectacular tracker music. Neat concept. The whole thing felt like an intro, though, I klept waiting for the actual song to start.

no kidding? what an amazing coincidence that it just so happened that he was both involved in creating the sounds AND mentioned in the comment.

it's almost as if the person posting the video already knew that
