Hi sage, any luck finding the code? I would be grateful if you could send it so I can have a little more understanding in how it works with the lynx, I hope karri kripto and fadest are still as enthausiastic as a few weeks ago if they want to help out. I'll try some programming again to see if I can get further this time. cheers!

Strange, mine doesn't suffer any of the problems you mentioned. Here's a picture taken directly from a camera (Sony Cybershot 8mp) and one color corrected (as close as possible to what I see with my eyes). The camera shows dark corners a little which I don't see with my eyes and from a 20cm distance I also don't see vertical rectangle pixels like in the picture, it's not as blurry either, it's perfect for that matter. I do always play games with the Lynx a little turned forward and the brightness as low as possible. btw your links seem to be dead

@karri that sounds interesting, by 6000 patterns you mean wavepatterns/forms right? I was having about the same ideas about pitchcontrol and waveforms and visualising them making it easier to choose from. @sage & matashen that's great! I'm very curious now, can you send me a preview/demo of it? what matashen suggested could work out great, more programmers is less work ( and better work ) It makes me wanna do this even more, I'll start on it tommorow. Let me know if you guys are up for it

That's a step-sequencer. Reason isn't referred to as a "tracker" is it? I see that the term has taken hold in the home brew community for some reason though. Damn the unofficial and their deviant terminology! Well, it isn't really an unofficial term since every "step-sequencer" of this kind is called "tracker" by their makers, like Fastracker, Impulsetracker, Modplugtracker, Screamtracker (which was published in 1990 ) and so on and on. And I was referring to Reason not as tracker but as "an easy way to create songs"

Yes I understand your point and appreciate that you would like to help out but can't. I didn't expect any programmer to just say yes to this so I concluded my topic saying I will develop the idea and research the posibilites, like mentioned in the thread you posted. I would program it myself if I had the talent for it but I've tried and come nowhere, I'm a designer and musician that understands programming. Anyway I'll work on the idea and post it in a couple of weeks. thanks

No I mean a musictracker, it's a program that lets you arrange sounds in vertical patterns, that way making a song. Screamtracker and Modplugtracker are examples of these programs and there is a version for the Game Boy as well. It was the easiest way for making songs on older OS's, when things like Reason didn't exist yet. I'm aware that there are indeed a lot of programmers having plans on their own, after all they wouldn't program if they hadn't ideas to program. But I think that collaboration is efficient, especially between a programmer and a designer. they both have their own skills to come up with the best ideas thanks for your reply!

Hi everyone, I've been looking for something I could use to make music with my Atari Lynx. So far I've only found sfx2 by Songbird, but it's not quite what I'm looking for, so I want to build a tracker program for the Atari Lynx. There is a huge amount of musicians working with systems like the Game Boy and the NES, either circuitbending or using a trackerprogram on a cardridge, and I am sure that there's are a lot of them that would like to work with the Atari too ( since nothing beats the sound of the Atari Lynx ) and would pay handsomely for it, me included. Now here's the real question: Who wants to develop this tracker with me? I can provide the functional design but I need someone that can program it. I have little knowledge in AS2.0 and C# but I'm sure that's not going to do it, but I have a lot of knowledge in trackers and synths. Next to that I have some marketingskills that could bring the Atari Lynx back to a bigger audience (musicians). The next couple of days I'll be working on a functional design and research the possibilies. so... who's with me?
