TCB Tracker 1.1m by The Carebears [web]
-TCB TRACKER- V1.1m
-------------------
IMPORTANT NOTE FOR 512K OWNERS
------------------------------
The module DESERT will NOT run on a half meg machine. If you can not
get the module TEST to work either, then please contact us.
MONSTER STEREO CARTRIDGE (MSC)
------------------------------
There are two versions of TRACKER on this disk. The first is v1.1
which is the latest version of TRACKER. This is named TCB_NORM.PRG
on this disk.
The second version is v1.1m and is ONLY FOR USE WITH THE MSC. This
is an identical version to 1.1, except that two channels are sent through
the monitor port as normal, and two channels are sent through the printer
port. This program is called TCB_MSC.PRG on this disk.
PLEASE NOTE
-----------
Version 1.1m does not display the dots in the centre globe. This is NOT
a bug in the program. The alternative to having no dots is having screen
corruption. This happens because the computer does not have enough
processor time to update everything on the screen.
This will be altered in the next version.
MIDI
----
There have been a few people who have had trouble getting their MIDI keyboard
to work with the -TCB TRACKER-. If you have any peoblems then the following
info may be of some help.
1) Set the keyboard to play a PIANO sound.
2) Set the keyboard to play in MONO.
3) Turn off ALL special effects that your keyboard can do. The -TCB
TRACKER- is not interested in them. The program will ONLY read the
NOTE that you are playing.
4) Enter the notes slowly. The -TCB TRACKER- will only read the notes
in MONO and therefore, the program can not read another note until
the last note has finsihed playing.
5) Make sure you have the keyboard set to transmit!!
6) Do NOT have the MIDI icon switched ON if you are NOT using MIDI CLOCK.
The -TCB TRACKER- will automatically read the MIDI keyboard as well
as the computer keyboard for a note.
CONVERSION PROGRAM
------------------
The conversion program included on this disk will NOT work on a half meg
machine. We will however be altering this as soon as possible. Also, this
program will not convert EVERY module ever written on the Amiga. It will
convert MOST 16 sample NOISETRACKER modules and SOME 16 sample SOUNDTRACKER
modules. The next version we hope will convert EVERY 16 sample Amiga module.
FINALLY
