What is a good resource for getting started with trackers? Im currently messing around with https://milkytracker.org/ to determine if I want to invest in a tracker like dirtwave M8. Any thoughts on training or good tutorials to learn the concepts around composition/creation? Thank you Reddit community? Source: about 1 year ago
To answer your question, most use https://openmpt.org/ or https://milkytracker.org/. Source: over 1 year ago
Now you can make music with clones of music trackers ported to modern platforms: http://schismtracker.org/ https://milkytracker.org/ The main problem is finding samples. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago

A music synthesizer. It's a pathway to learning electronics, music, and the nature of sound. There are cheap kits, cheap synths, lots of kinds of synths, and there are much more complicated and expensive systems you can grow into. You can get software synths also, VCV Rack is a free though complex one: https://vcvrack.com/ However I'd recommend an inexpensive hardware one with real knobs you can turn, like one... - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago
What really opened my eyes was the Nord Micromodular; it taught me what I just described. It showed me how limited other synths were - but that limitation was a trade-off because it's much faster to make something on a fixed-structure synth than on a modular, in most cases. Nowadays, you can use https://vcvrack.com/ instead of a small limited box that needs Windows 98 to run the editor on. Source: 11 months ago
Also I would suggest the paid version of VCV rack which works as a VST too ( the free version is just stand alone ) Expecially when experimenting with modular ( believe me, it can save you a fortune whilst you learn what different modules do ) I would also recommend Omri Cohens Youtube channel for learning this too.

Would be way easier with VCV rack than a DAW as there's already almost 3k modules including a lot of granular and other complex ones that blow away a lot of pedals: https://vcvrack.com/. Source: 12 months ago
