#GoatTracker
my first in-depth experience with trackers was GoatTracker, which emulated the C64 SID Chip (the SID is still my favorite of the classic chiptune soundchips)

Here's a quick recording of my last test playthrough -- just to verify everything is still working. You get to hear music/sfx for the first time: placeholder stuff taken from the GoatTracker distribution, the actual in-game music doesn't exist yet.

Well, now that I can actually play music, I guess I need to talk to a C64 SID composer-for-hire with Goattracker experience.

Well fuck I think I might actually release this crappy game before xmas! Got that song I was transposing from iPad to Goattracker sounding reasonable. The list of todo is very small now! #gamedev #Commodore64 #c64

Time to re-post some chiptune bangers from other folks, such as this marvelous DualSID cover of a 4Mat's classic Amiga mod by et1999cc (Esteban Trujillo) | "4mat - Back Again" (C64 Dual 6581 Cover) [GoatTracker] youtu.be/3f1SQhTB7MY?... #chiptune #c64 #6581 #4Mat

I’d be curious to know how similar it ended up to GoatTracker. It’s open source so is possibly part of the training data.

copilot write a silly song in goattracker with an odd groove and then draw 4 women's faces in teletext and one of them is princess diana, the princess of our hearts, and then convert them to petscii badly and then get them to move about a bit and then combine them into a c64 fake demo

GTUltraの前身のGoatTrackerがデファクトスタンダードなのが信じられない私 ;-;

Those who find maxYMiser too complex, not intuitive enough, should try GoatTracker. It's quite its own thing.

Are any of you #C64 goobers familiar with #Cheesecutter, the SID music creation tool?

If so, is there any info out there about making sound effects and how to have them play along with the music, utilising one of the channels when needed?
I know GoatTracker does this, but my searches are fruitless.

As I learn #goattracker for #c64 #sid I am leaning towards a kind of Matt Gray Rob Hubbard blend (in my amateurish way) soundcloud.com/robert-ramsa...

Check out Goattracker. A lot of C64 musicians use it so it’s a good place to start. There’s plenty of sample tunes around you can work on getting in your game as a test. To have SFX and music at the same time the tunes need to leave channel 3 empty.

Wrapped up a new C64/SID 8580 tune last night for the Battle Of The Bits Winter Chip XX compo. Release coming soon 🎼 #commodore64 #goattracker #8580 #SID #latenighttracking
