  Nowadays I use the new remake of FastTracker II https://16-bits.org/ft2.php. It's quite impresive how they copy almost identical the original one. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

  Also of interest might be this 1:1 remake of FastTracker 2: https://16-bits.org/ft2.php. I’ve only played around briefly but it was exactly as I remember it! FT2 was pretty much my intro to making music, it came on a PC Format magazine cover CD with a a bunch of XM/MOD files and it blew my mind that I could open up these songs and see how they were made! I never got particularly good with it but had some fun... - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• trying to use fasttracker has made me respect 90s junglists’ work much more.

  I just went on the Fastracker 2 clone website and downloaded the Mac version. Source: over 1 year ago

• I know nothing about making music, but I want to get a PO. Will I be in over my head?

  I think a PO33 is a great sampler and I love it (I made some videos with it) BUT if you've never made any music you'd better start with a DAW like FL or Ableton, Cubase ecc.. I recommend also Fast tracker II (https://16-bits.org/ft2.php) which is free, It's a great piece of software that can achieve a lot. Also if you're interested in cheap solutions for more expensive gear I recommend Michael and his channel... Source: over 1 year ago

• Ahoy - Trackers: The Sound of 16-Bit [41:11]

  Thanks! Educational and nostalgic. I got into tracker music in the FastTracker2/DOS days, since it was the only zero-cost way a broke-ass high-schooler could find to make digital music, but I didn't know much about the history prior to that, save for a vague sense of "It started on the Amiga, didn't it?". Now I might have to go dig up that copy of FT2-Clone again. Source: over 2 years ago

• Scaling problem.

  Milkytracker is Fasttracker II clone not? I use https://16-bits.org/ft2.php on PC/Mac without problems, it works great. Source: over 2 years ago

• My First Virtual Synth

  So did I! I remember getting crazy samples using that pattern-based filter. I'm still a huge tracker head and Renoise is so advanced in comparison, but still has that feeling. I was playing with this FT2 clone recently: https://16-bits.org/ft2.php. Source: over 2 years ago
