HivelyTracker competition

the soundquality on a standard amiga is from the toilet
Well that was constructive.
at least it was (is) the truth
i havent used this particular tracker but doesnt it just depend on the quality of the wav samples?
Hively is a synth tracker based on AHX, so there are no wav samples :)
Even if you hate paula audio (I think it sounds alright, but what do I know?), Hively supports AHI, so if you're running under UAE it can use your "amazing" windows soundcard directly.

Hi folks.
I've just been informed that the Hivelytracker.com compo is coming towards the deadline issued at the beginning of the compo, however - it's lacking entries and the people behind Hively are considering extending the deadline, but let's not get too far of ourselves.
Info:
What is the compo?
- Compose a HivelyTracker tune. Enter it. You could win the prize, who knows.
- Compositions must be in HVL format, in other words - composed in HivelyTracker.
- All of the HVL HivelyTracker entries will be released on a special music disk after the compo, this is an ideal thing to enter if you want to take your first steps into the demoscene :)
What is HivelyTracker?
- It's a chip-synthesizer based on AHX for the Amiga platforms. Both PPC and 68k (as long as you have a fast one!).
- It sounds much like the Commodore 64 SID but with vast extra features, including Ringmodulation and up to 16 channels which is pretty impressive for an Amiga.
Can I run it on my PC?
- Via WinUAE, yes - in fact on fairly fast PC systems you can get good performance out of it. You should try and get hold of "Amiga In A Box" and the necessary ROM and Workbench ADF images if you want to have a ready-to-go bootable environment. HivelyTracker requires AHI audio drivers to be running, it will work in Workbench 3.1 aswell.
Can I submit other formats?
- No. This is a HivelyTracker compo.
Is there a prize?
- Yes!
What is it?
- Check out the competition section on www.hivelytracker.com to see.
How long do I have to enter?
- Well, until the 31st January 2007, so hurry!!
Can I release my creations before the compo?
- No. You cannot, this is a rule of the compo. You can do so after the compo is over and the music disk of the compo has been released.
Anything else?
- See www.hivelytracker.com for more info!
On behalf of the HivelyTracker team.
Well, please try and give it a go, this tracker is pretty awesome even if you don't have access to a high-end Amiga. As a PC user - getting it to run will be fully rewarding I can assure you of that. I did, so who's with me? I throw down the gauntlet to you to beat me in the compo muahahaha.
- m0d.
BTW, if you go for "AmiKit" instead of "Amiga In A Box", you get HivelyTracker already installed!
heh, i couldn't install it with amiga forever and i won't even bother with my real amiga. i guess i should try amikit, then.
@linde
What was the problem? AHI?
What was the problem? AHI?
Oh yes, HT comes with AmiKit 1.2.9, so once you've installed the 1.2.0 package from the AmiKit site, run "AmiKit Live Update" and it'll install it for you.
No, i have AHI installed, but the program just kicked me out with a reboot/suspend thingie. I tried it with amikit and it works like a charm, though.
Nice tune, there, xeron :)
Nice tune, there, xeron :)
btw, i support agressive behaviour against other people so legally i can't use amikit ;(
Can't we all just get along?
